making a portable bench

[jvrjenivs]

Okay, here a small how-to about how I made some wooden benches for my group, Corbvlo, which can be taken apart for easier transport into 4 pieces each.

We made them from 3 cm thick furniture panels and a piece of 5 x 5 cm furniture wood.


As we wanted to make more of those we started with making a paper mould for the 'legs'. On the picture you can see how we constructed an hole in the middle which will later be used to stabalize the bench. The backside of the leg is left straigh, so we can also place them against a wall. The front is rounded, like some stone examples from pompeii show us.
