Title: Do you recall "Project Hush" ?
Post by: landimad on June 30, 2011, 05:42:01
Well it is about time I updated you with what has happened to big brother garden bench.

http://www.allotments4all.co.uk/smf/index.php/topic,53870.0.html
OH was very pleased with this and now we have little sister nearly finished.
Photos to follow.
All being well, they will look good in the garden and people will see they fit into our place just right.
There will be plenty of room for up to seven people to sit down in the garden.

One thing though, I think from all the responses of friends and family who have sat on the bench is how much easier it is on the back with the increase in angle of the back of the bench. This was from a 92deg to a 115deg angle from the vertical so as not to induce back pain.
I do wish that the big companies would look at the angles of their products and assess them with humans to get feedback before they go into full production.
I shall have to get on and finish this one to show you how things are and what they look like together.

I do hope she fits into the garden and now we have room for seven people to relax in the garden.

No commissions as yet Saddad, and thanks Janet, Trouble is she now wants a table to fit the family around too. Needs to be eight foot long to fit our lot round it. :o
