Deconstructed in Fine Woodworking Magazine!

Very honored to have our Cedar Garden Bench featured in Fine Woodworking magazine(June 2016)!  We originally designed and built a series of these outdoor benches in Port Orford Cedar for the Chuang Yen Monastery in Carmel, NY.  The design caught the eye of one of the editors at Fine Woodworking and they commissioned us to discuss and demonstrate the construction of the piece.  What a thrill to be seen in such esteemed company…!
