Porch Bench

This is the Zia Sun Symbol, I carved it out using wood chisels. Next time I will make a pattern and use a router. I stained the center of the symbol with Minwax Red Oak so there would be more contrast.

Comment by Harriet Zunno on May 8, 2014 at 4:10pm: I use to live in Albuquerque and this is a wonderful little bench. I have kitchen chairs with those step up cuts like you put on the table. A very beautiful job. Do you share plans?

Comment by Jay Boutwell on April 28, 2014 at 8:16am: Frank, very eye catching and well done. I especially like the design of the bench done in oak. The cuts of the the bench apron is a excellent thought out design. The back is also a eye catching and with the symbol really makes this a "one of a kind" piece. The symbol lends to that of New Mexico State which has furniture that this reminds me of. Excellent work and thank you for posting.

New Kreg 720Pro
