The Chief’s Shop Patio Contemplation Bench makes a nice little perch where you can gather your thoughts. Place it on a patio, as its name implies, or in any spot you could use a small bench. Lumber required is just a few 2x4s and 2x6s. Overall dimensions: 51 3/4 inches wide x 27 1/2 inches deep x 27 1/2 inches high (at the arms).
You’ll need a table saw, miter saw, jigsaw, drill driver, and Kreg Jig to build it.

The Chief’s Shop Raised Planter makes gardening easier for those who find it difficult to bend over and/or kneel when working in the garden. It’s just plain easy to reach at a working height of 36 inches. I’ve also designed it so it can be built with or without a Kreg Pocket Hole Jig.

The Chief’s Shop “Two-By” Bench can be made in an afternoon and requires on a few tools to complete – a miter saw, circular saw, drill driver, and Kreg pocket hole jig.
Its name comes from the fact that it requires 2 x material, two 2 x 4s and a 2 x 12. Use your choice of exterior lumber for the base components, but try to avoid treated lumber for the seat unless you plan to thoroughly seal it using solid exterior stain or exterior paint.
