You started my journey building your furniture with pallets been a year and a half and I still enjoy making things with wood. Thank you so much.

[@DIYPETE]

I love hearing things like that, so glad the videos played a small role in getting you inspired :) Cheers Gary!

My double chair I built a few years ago is looking exactly like yours was so thanks for the video!

[@DIYPETE]

I hear ya! Darn spar varnish looks beautiful for a while but ya don't keep up on it and it goes fast :) I figured a lot of folks were having the same issues and that this would be a good solution! Cheers and have a great weekend!

[@MCsCreations]

Pressure washer! Great idea Thanks

[@ifiwooddesigns]

Love your background. I’ve done outdoor projects in many different ways. I find burning the wood first then only have to pressure wash every few years and it’s back to normal. Keep up the great work!

[@DIYPETE]

Curious, do you once per year shovel out the gravel from the pit and wash out ash so it looks clean for each new season, or how do you keep it looking nice?

[@DIYPETE]

Hey Ed! Great question. I use a shovel to remove the ash about once a year. I actually just did it last week prior to re-staining and sealing the concrete fire ring. Cheers!

What kind of paint did you use? Could you share the brand?
