Affordable DIY Modern Outdoor Couches Under $200 | Stylish Patio Furniture Project

These couches have been a main gathering for my family and I after we renovated our back deck! I ended up creating a fire coffee table to go in between them as well. The cushions are from www.coversandall.com, very great quality and SUPER affordable and customizable! I buy the cushion foam off Amazon!

Thanks so much Great job! It is so rewarding to build something yourself and your family enjoy it.

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

It really is!

[@bernardtenpas9493]

For exterior uses you should consider titebond 3 which is water proof and out door approved.

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Thanks for the tip!

[@abasmohsenzadeh]

Thank you for the great video! Is the plan wirh measurements available?

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

In the description you can find my blog tutorial

[@tro8191]

Yea cushions is what kills ya on the cost. I learned that my first time round so on my second one I used a twin mattress. Worked like a charm!

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Cool idea!

[@taylordanetriplett]

What did you use for covers on the twin?

[@tro8191]

@@taylordanetriplett I used twin sheets! The cool part was I had different color schemes too cause it’s so easy to buy sheets at a great price! Well worth it I thought!

[@tro8191]

@@Nailgun_Nelly thank u! And during the off season I stored them in my sons room and made a “cozy corner” for him with pillows and the mattresses.

[@MissingBlee]

Love the video. On future videos, could you please keep the music sound lower or off? Makes it hard to hear your voice. Thanks! 😊

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Will do!

[@ZionistWorldOrder]

nice!

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Thanks!

[@sinoverlord409]

Why would you angle cut your joints?

[@JLThisisMe]

I'd imagine because it removes the look of end grain on both perpendicular pieces.

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

What he said

[@kennethm.380]

A little putty, a little paint, makes a carpenter what he (she) ain't.

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

It’s actually true

[@timriley2092]

Clueless

[@jaysonprice2484]

A youtube comment is a weird place to write one-word descriptions of yourself, but sure have at it man.

[@JLThisisMe]

The couches came out great and I really like the design. Just one question . . . are you happy with the height of the seat? I'd like to do the same thing, but maybe raise the 1x8s up a few inches to make the tops of the seat cushions around 15"-16".

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

@@JLThisisMe for us to see height is great, but I would definitely say it’s a little low. If your knees or joints are giving you any issues, a little height might be a great idea!

[@JLThisisMe]

Our knees are fine but we do have some guests that would find this height to be a little low.

[@alanamorissette4082]

Can you do a video on how to use your little "pocket hole" making tool and provide examples of when it is beneficial to use? I've seen you use it a few times now and it has peaked my interest!

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Great idea! It is such a great tool and when constructing furniture it makes for much stronger joints.

[@RJSampsonite]

These are vanity benches and dont look like they'll hold much use. The sheer strength of screws is brutal and that's the only thing you have transferring the load to the floor. The load should be supported by posts and transferred to the floor, not through horizontal screws. Same for the back. Seriously man

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Okay well my vanity benches have held up through 2 years of weather and backyard parties so I call it a win

[@olenarubi4435]

Hi. It’s very nice 👍 what size of cushions? Thank you

[@traviantaylor1784]

How much can I sell these on Fb marketplace lol

[@eun-solkim58]

Thank you for the tutorial! I've been trying to search 4x4 pine board but I can't really find it from HomeDepot or Lowe's. Do you ahve any recommendation?

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

[@raczyk]

How do you disasemble the couch when moving homes?

[@homefrontpropertysolutions2070]

I wouldn't think theres a need to disassemble with them being outside furniture, no need to walk thru the house or thru doors

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

We never plan to disassemble

[@northwestlife2794]

Great video. Thank you, and nice job.

[@abushadow5794]

Started good but then obviously can’t follow what you’re doing

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Obviously

[@jasonrahimzadeh2342]

Your papuska is showing. Have modesty.

[@AlexKoentges]

Can you tell me if you purchased pressure treated pine lumber for all the wood?

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

No I sealed it with 4 coats of course xterior spar urethane

[@andrewbrookes5814]

great video but lose the music, especially when you are talking or drop the music levels alot lower. Not a criticism just hard to hear what you are saying sometimes :)

[@wegottafishdude]

I looked into this. It’s over $200 just for the foam.

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

When I bought it nope, i did this 3 years ago and it coat that much for one couch

[@krzysztofkrzysztof5730]

The best thank you I will mad same thing

[@danieltodtfeld4562]

How are the cushions and covers holding up?

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Great! The covers have faded a bit but I have washed them and they look new, i have not gotten covers for winter which I may do this year

[@nancydugas3022]

You make it look so easy. Very nice job. They should last a lifetime, they're so sturdy.

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Thank you so much! They have been solid 🙌🏼

[@talismenf2253]

gyat !!!!!!

[@serdaldincer2886]

respect bro

[@avamorim]

Are these measurements in inches? (4x4, 1x8...)

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Yes they are sizes of the wood you buy but technically the actual size is smaller because when you bUy a 1x8 for example its actual measurement is 3/4” x 7.25” due to the milling process

[@MA-vm6jl]

Where is cut list?

[@nehaagrawal1864]

Can you share height of the back rest?

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

I believe its in the blog tutorial!

[@MA-vm6jl]

I think instead of going with 4 x 4’s I would go with two by fours kind of seems overkill because then you drop down to a one by

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

I wanted a chunky look and a 2x4 would look flimsy

[@kenniegarner3848]

Awesome project, great job!

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@Mustbe_jenny]

Really nice ❤❤❤

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Thanks 😊

[@waterlover]

What is up with the music… way too much

[@DanielMartinez-ih1we]

Where did you get the cushions and covers?

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

www.patiolane.com

[@mistertdotcom786]

They look great!

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Thank you!

[@shitlista4283]

What does 1- 6ft Pine Board mean? How big is that one? And do you think cedar would be more or less sturdy? I love the project, thanks!

[@Nailgun_Nelly]

Cedar would be a great choice and probably hold up better I just wanted a lighter color wood.
