I am a beginner to woodwork, the main test I have with this bundle kzread.infoUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt is that I think that its hard to settle on a choice of the plan and outline to use as there are a large portion of them there. Nonetheless, I like the simple stride to step directions laid out there.
Great stuff. A few hints for those of you who try this one... put strips of paper between the metal and the wood, as a shim, before tack welding (maybe 2-3 ply) so that after you tap the metal frame out to finish weld, you get rid of the paper and the finished part will very easily slip back into place without damaging the stained wood surfaces. Also, while he was proving a point that the job could be done much cheaper than store bought, if you are going to the trouble to build this yourself, splurge on some good, clear, kiln dried lumber. the finished product will look SOOOO much better. The grain will POP and you will never have to worry about splitting or warping. I built something very similar about 20 years ago and learned those two key mistakes. I've since replicated the furniture a few times for family/friends and it's all still perfect to this day. Thanks for the great video!!!

I am a structural welder by trade and I would encourage you to not tack this up inside the frame. He has a welding table so he could have fixtured it up with and clamped it into shape. Step 1. With Soapstone draw out the interior of the leg. Step 2. Take left over material and clamp it down to make a border of your traced soap stone lines. Step 3 drop material in. Step 4 use toggle clamps to push up agains your outer braces. Step 5, weld out the frame. I would have probably also from a design stand point made a cross instead of putting 2 45's in there. But yeah I absolutely do not like welding around semi finished parts of my wood working projects because you always spend more time cleaning them back up then you would if you just made some simple fixtures on your bench.

@jonathananson8101 It's honestly not that hard to build with basic tools. Just requires a little patience. Best advice I could give would be to spend a little extra on good, straight, kiln dried wood. Then find your cushions so you can make your dimensional drawings around them. Even if you had to buy all the tools to build this, you are under $1k, minus a welder. So you end up with a cool custom set of furniture that fits your needs perfectly, for a heck of a savings.
My toxic trait is thinking I could build something half as nice as this with none of the wood working tools you have. Great job man!

Yeah....the tools are needed
As someone who has also built patio furniture out of a softwood (pine), it would be a good idea to put some sort of plastic slider or bumper on the bottoms of the chair legs to keep them from scuffing when you move the furniture around. With heavy chairs like those, you'll probably push them around a little and as soon as the sealant gets damaged, you'll get water intrusion and degradation of the wood.

Matt, this build could have been a lesson in not being afraid to learn to do something right. Makers like Mr. B have a great enthusiasm for WW & they show us time & time again that they are not afraid of new challenges. Great. I just wish they would use, the many resources available on the science, art & craft of woodworking. Then viewers would learn from that example and be better prepared to trust the information they get on this channel. A quick glimpse at the comments, and I learned that there was a right way to do the welding, better lumber choices etc. etc. I am replying to YOUR comment because the "bad choice" you noticed; would have taken less than 10 dollars to fix. Not adding feet of some kind WILL, at some point, be detrimental to the build. And, lastly, a little project research, here on KZread, & he'd know not to have the wood sitting on the wet ground, where it will constantly wick up moisture, or directly on the concrete, where it will sit in pools of water after rain. KZread can be an excellent resource, with education and information served up with entertainment and easy to consume. Not just channels by professional woodworkers like Jon Peter's and Semi- Pros like Steve Rhamsy, but also established channels from DIY'ers like DIY creator & Anna White. I actually just watched a video on JP's channel & he did not mention any leg protection; however, you could see them in the video, and he added in the video description that he "forgot to mention in the video....I did add nylon domes to the bottom of the legs." Anyhow, I appreciate channels wanting to be original and viewers often enjoy the charm of mistakes. I also appreciate how much time, work and energy must go into producing these videos (i could never do it). I just want a little time in for researching tasks that are new for them. That way, they won't develop bad habits or teach them to their viewers. I hope Mr B. knows how lucky he is to have fans that love his style, but are also honest with him about his welding, wood choice, screw choices etc. With 3 quarters of a million subscribed, he must be doing something right. For me, if i didn't enjoy watching and want his channel to grow, i wouldn't have bothered with this, my hopefully constructive criticism. Thanks Matt, for reminding everyone to use sliders/bumpers/feet. ~ ♿Lisa🛠

Would be nice to get plans for this build.
I love it! Another option for no weld is during the glue up of the sides, drill for round tubing and just let the frame hold the steal tube. Still will get the rigidity needed (assuming the holes are drilled with minimum tolerance) and you don’t need any welder to get the steel look. Great work!
Your videos are entertaining enough to where you don’t need to put the memes. We like you for you…you don’t need to add anything extra. Makes it feel less authentic. I think I counted almost 15 memes in the first ten minutes of the video. Still a great video though. Keep killing it!

Pretty fair work. If you have a domino joiner you may want to use it a bit more. Those pocket holes are a tad unsightly. Doing all your joints with the domino would make it look that much better. Additionally screw heads used to attach the metal . . . give them a spray of primer and back paint.
The dowel through the mitered joint is an idea I never thought of but totally want to try. Would look really nice when it's finished, especially if you use a contrasting wood as an accent.
Love it! Simple and elegant!
Big chunk of that savings is not using Teak

I was thinking that same thing. The 4x4s also tend to be better quality wood and more dry than the 2x4s in our local hardware stores.
Great video, liking the clip inserts! It very helpful and enjoyable to watch… can’t wait for the next vid.
something i learned from another channel about fall and leaves, is it actually helps the small critters during winter to keep the leaves on the ground until spring. these little critters depend on winter ground cover to survive.
Great build. Any chance you have the dimensions. Would love to give this a shot myself.
You had me at "pocket heldeded". Loved this video. Really good. Just one suggestion. When your wife agrees to you spending $1000 and you only end up spending $500, you buy tools until you reach the original price. Just something I have learned after 30+ years of marriage.

The $10k set used teak wood, which is probably a lot of the markup. You might not even be able to find teak out where you are, so the pine you used is a good alternative especially if you take the steps to make sure it will hold up outside like you did. And for those that can find teak, just be careful because teak is hard as hell. If you don't have the high quality tools to work with it, it will just destroy your stuff. Teak has silica in it, which is like glass, which is why it's so hard and so hard to work with.
