If you can't find it....make it......furniture

Post by fortyshooter » Sun Oct 29, 2023 1:29 pm

So after mounting the TV in my gun room I needed a nice comfy chair for two to enjoy it. Looked around and found nothing I liked and for what I wanted to spend which was less than a thousand bucks now days. So I had an idea.... :idea:

Found a wagon wheel bench for two on Amazon for 100 bucks and then added 6 inches more on the seat back and bottom plus added more back angle when putting it together. Looked around on the net and found a pair of perfect old west type cushions from Wayfair for 100 bucks for the pair....nice deal! Put it all together and a really comfy place to sit after a day at the range or just to watch some football or a good Western!

Very Nice... Fit's right in.

At first glance that bench didn’t look very comfortable. Then I got to to the pic with the cushions and yep I could sit on that for a long time. Looks great and the pattern on the cushions really highlight the rest of the bench.
