Benchables!

Jessica Daniels, owner operator of A Flair for Hair Salon in Milledgeville, Georgia whom is hosting the Charity auction at the Deep Roots Festival for two local ladies dealing with breast cancer and Hodgkin's lymphoma called and asked for more benches for the food court/eating area of the festival.

Kevin took stock again of his supplies and tools and went to work. His engineering background in manufacturing and design he put together a method of building them quickly but efficiently.

Once again using fall off wood from the sawmill, he found and inspiration in a long slice of trunk.  Leveling the piece on the sawmill he drilled 2-inch holes of deliberate spacing into them.

Then using a pipe threader machine he absconded from the local dump not long ago, he built a bit out of 2-inch pipe with teeth ground out using his angle grinder.   Giant toothpicks skinned and whittled down from a tree that didn't make it through a recent storm would become the legs. 

Arthur coined the name Benchables because they are suited for use as both benches and tables on a picnic table theme.

They run 4 feet in average length and range from 11 to 16 inches wide.
