Figured Maple Bench

[John Michaels]

Here's my latest project. Made from western maple and finished with Aquaspar (a water-based poly with spar varnish). My first real attempt at applying finish with a spray gun.

very nice John. I like live edge pieces like this. Nice finish as well. Bob.

I'd say you did yourself proud on both the construction and the finish. Very nice!

[David Christopher]

WOW, that is a very nice piece and a great finish

[Jack Camillo]

Looks great. Very nice top, especially. What are the dimensions? I know it says "bench," but with the size I am guessing, what would you use this for?

[Danny Hamsley]

That is a beautiful, functional piece!

Quite the robust little bench... Great chunk of maple for the top.
Nice work on this one John.

[John Thompson]

Clean.. simple and sturdy. Like the way you eased the seat edges...

It is gorgeous and makes me want to sit on it.
