Loved making the Weatherly for the back porch. Extended it out to be a four seater on the long side and 3 seater on the short. Finding a deal on the cushions is the key (I didn't).
Did make a jig for the X back to make them more exact and consistent.
Built from Plan(s)
Estimated Cost
The materials were $150. The cushions were about $600.
Estimated Time Investment
Week Long Project (20 Hours or More)
Finish Used
MInwax Ebony stain with Minwax Helmsman Gloss finish. Doesn't show in the picture but the grain shows through. I changed the time investment to week long because sanding, staining, finishing, and sanding, and finishing took a few days.
