In this video, I’ll take you through the entire process of how I built a stunning 10-foot bench using a Douglas fir board from Home Depot. I’ll share my tips on sanding, the importance of using pre-stain (it really does make it way better), and how I achieved that rich brown stain that I love.
You’ll watch the satisfying process of staining, and see how I tackled the triple thick polyurethane stage (I was pretty nervous about it turning clear, but it worked!). I’ll also show you the specific legs I ordered from Amazon for 100 bucks, how I cut and sanded them to perfection, and how I ensured they could support an impressive 1300 lbs.
The final cost? Just $141, saving me a whopping $1650 for just a couple of hours of work. Whether you’re a DIY pro or a complete beginner, this project is an inspiring way to create something beautiful for your home while keeping your budget in check.
