There was a contest a little while ago where you could win one of those. I remember the guy who won too; he was(is?) in Iraq. I havn't heard or know of how to build one. Sorry

If I were to make a chair I would make one like this:

If you were to make one like this then the board is through but if you were to make one like the first you could still maybe use it later or sell it if anyone decides to want to buy it.

jeffrey_25, Even if you made one like the first pic then you still have holes all the way through the board, i guess it would be repairable not sure though.

On the other side I agree with you if I had a choice i would get the first type of bench

Someone had a post up earlier about drilling holes in his Parks and filling the holes with ________ (forget what it is) and everyone said it was alright. I think Scott said someone he knew did it too. The guy on General who had his Belmont dented received some information about how to repair it so I"m sure you could fill the holes.

I had no idea why I had a big avatar. Am I "tech" now?
