I’ve got a really fun project video going live tomorrow at **5pm BST**.

A few months ago, I received an email from a client asking if I could rebuild his old swing bench. Without seeing any photos, I asked him to bring it down to the workshop so I could take a look.

When it arrived, I quickly realised this wasn’t going to be a simple repair. The bench was literally falling apart. It was riddled with woodworm, rotten in multiple places, and every time I picked up a component, another piece seemed to break off in my hands.

This was such a fun project to work on, and I’m really pleased with how it turned out.

If you'd like to see the full restoration and the finished result, head over to https://www.youtube.com/ on YouTube and make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss the premiere tomorrow at **5pm BST**!

See you there! 👊

I'm building a custom swing bench for a client, designed for full outdoor use.

All the timber has been given 3 coats of exterior wood paint to protect it from the elements, and I’ve used stainless screws throughout, all carefully countersunk for a clean finish.

The challenge comes with protecting those screw holes. If left open, water can pool in the countersinks and eventually cause issues over time.

So instead of just plugging and hoping for the best, I made a simple little trick to protect the finished surface while working: an old card with a 12mm hole drilled in it. This slips over each plug perfectly.

That means I can safely use a flush trim saw to cut the plugs down without risking any damage to the painted surface. Once I’m close, I switch to a chisel and carefully pare everything back until it’s perfectly flush.

Clean finish. No paint damage. No compromise. Just a solid, weather-ready result.

The finished reveal.

From worn, stained and tired to refreshed and ready for many more years of use.

A huge transformation without the cost of replacement.

What do you think of the result?

Oak Worktop Refinish – Part 7

This is my favourite part of every restoration.

The moment the Rubio Monocoat hits the timber and the grain comes alive.

Oak Worktop Refinish – Part 5

When standard tools won't reach, sometimes you need to make your own.

This 3D printed sanding pad helped tackle some of the tightest areas on the worktop and made the job far easier.

Oak Worktop Refinish – Part 4

The orbital sander does most of the heavy lifting, but there are always areas it simply can't reach.

These details take time, but they're what separate an average result from a great one.

Oak Worktop Refinish – Part 3

With the old finish removed, it's time to start sanding.

This is where years of wear, scratches and surface damage begin to disappear, revealing the timber underneath.

Oak Worktop Refinish – Part 2

Before reaching for the sander, I scraped away the old finish.

This removes a surprising amount of material and helps save sanding discs for the work that actually matters.

A simple step that makes the whole process more efficient.
