Finished my set of patio furniture! (lemmy.zip)

Hello! I recently got into woodworking and built this sectional set over the past few months!

I bought the plans from Shara Woodshop Diaries. They were very well done and easy to follow.

The sectional and chaise obviously took the longest. It had a couple of tricky glue jobs but I think it turned out alright.

The coffee table and side table I started and finished over the last two days. I took my time and think I did better than on the sectional.

This is all pressure treated wood. I will stain it sometime but haven’t picked a stain yet. Figured it needs time to dry out anyways.

Anyways, this is my first post here - figured I’d share!

Thanks!

The cushions are from Home Depot. These ones I believe.

And yeah, I haven’t thought much about plans at the library but I have found some good free plans too. Personally, I like Shara’s videos and the plans aren’t too expensive (I think like $10 for 3 plans?).

A friend of mine made a bench from Ana White’s plans and it turned out great too!
