I completed this project today and took a nap on it before I even put my
tools away. :-)
It's built from cedar 2 x 4's and 1 x 4's and finished with Rubio Monocoat.
I used their Hybrid Wood Protector. 2 parts Pure and 1 part Royal. The Pure
has no UV protection, but they told me that 1/3 of any pigment is all that
you need.
I built it as 2 separate pieces for ease of movement. Once piece has 2
armrests and can function as a standalone sofa. The other is more a
day-bed type piece, although the open end legs can be removed and
replaced with an armrest. It would then be an exact match for the other
piece.

construction. Easy fix...I'll take care of it today.
Ignore it if you see it, it'll probably be fixed before you read this post.

No...we already have a picnic table. Maybe I'll Monocoat it. ;-)
However, as we were drifting off to sleep last night, SWMBO says
to me "Thanks for the building the sectional. Now we need a table
to go with it."
Good thing she's a great cook. ;-)
