I Made the PERFECT Bench for Our Criss-Cross Table

This article was originally posted on The Wood Whisperer.
Summary
Marc Spagnuolo builds a matching bench for his experimental Criss-Cross Dining Table by scaling down the design, tweaking angles, and trying alternative tools and techniques. He finishes it with Bumblechutes natural tung oil (code TWW10) and points viewers to a full Criss-Cross Dining Table & Bench course in the Wood Whisperer Guild.

Which aspect interests you most: the scaled-down design, the tool/technique variations, or the tung oil finishing approach?

I recently made a large Criss-Cross Dining Table featuring an experimental base design. Once the table was complete, I decided to extend the design to a matching sitting bench. Of course I had to change a few angles and scale things down, but in the end the bench was just a smaller version of the table. I also took this opportunity to try a couple variations in tools and techniques for its construction.

If you want to try your hand at this project, take a look at the full course in the Wood Whisperer Guild: Criss-Cross Dining Table & Bench

The finish I used is Bumblechutes, a natural tung oil finish. You can save 10% using the code TWW10 at Bumblechutes.com
