Building a wooden bench with backrest. Building the frame of the bench. The first step of the woodworking project is about building the frame of the outdoor wooden bench. As you can easily notice in the plans, we recommend you to build the legs out of 4Ã4 lumber and the frame out of 2Ã3 lumber. Drill pocket holes at both ends of the supports and secure them to the legs with 2 1/2â³ galvanized screws. Add waterproof glue to the joints and check if the corners are right-angled.
Do this to all four corners. Tie a masonâs string to one of the nails, and pull tight around the perimeter of the home tying it to all the corner nails. Double-check with a level to be sure the string line along the ground is straight down from the edge of the mobile home. 3. Install bottom support. Behind but next to the string line, cut and lay on edge enough green-treated 2Ã4âs to go around the perimeter of the home. Behind the 2Ã4âs pound wooden stakes every 4-6 feet. Lift the 2Ã4âs about 1 inch off of the ground and screw one 3-1/2â³ galvanized screw into each stake.
