First up, please keep in mind this is not a "How to Perfectly Restore Outside Furniture" video, though I hope you get a lot of tips and ideas to assist with your own furniture restoration or outdoor furniture repair projects. This was client work and done to a budget, with the goal of giving another 5-10 years of life before such work needs to be done again. There are a lot of extra steps I could take but this would have added a lot of time and therefore expense, so take this as a guide to a "Practical" #woodworking #restoration for a budget ;)

I'll show you how I prepare, clean, sand, repair, stain and protect six rather expensive solid teak wooden benches for an apartment complex in Sydney.

EcoFlow sent me the Delta Portable Power Supply to try out and while it is expensive, it did what was on the label, and did it very well. Here is an Affiliate EcoFlow’s website to get your own #EcoFlow Delta portable power station if you like what you saw. It costs you no extra but helps support my channel: https://au.ecoflow.com/?aff=93
