How to build the bench

This clever project shows what can be achieved by using materials differently to the way they were intended. Sleepers are structural landscaping timber used here to create durable outdoor furniture. While flexible electrical conduit was coiled to create a realistic spring. The peg bench is finished with a black decking stain to protect the timber and give it a modern look.

Everything you need for this project can be found at the hardware store. And so it’s easy for you to build, we’ve put the materials list, shopping info and the step-by-step pictures and instructions for this peg bench on a project sheet.
