Aside from building my work bench. These are essentially my first attempts at woodworking. The table, chairs, and benches I did on my own. The deck I helped 100% of the way with direction from my bro in law. Everything done between April and June of this year. Hard to find time working nights and having two kids [emoji16]. Also have done some brick landscaping around the mulch.

They look amazing. Did you design the benches and table or did you get the plans from somewhere? The deck looks great as well.nice job.

rrich1 looks awesome dude. Love that picnic table especially, really sturdy looking and not sore on the eyes. As far as the Adirondacks go? I’m a New Englander. We love Adirondacks. Awesome job dude!

If you made those tables and benches in my area you could make a pretty penny just selling them at the mailbox. Great work!

Great job man, I wish decks were more popular around here I would build one in a heart beat.
