Park Bench, Sitting Bench . Any Ideas?

We are looking at making 6 park benches. looking for ideas the would involve the plasma table for some of the parts.

Here is a drawing of a bench of the same rough dimensions we want. these measurement where taken from a bench at the local park . The bench does not need to look like this but it need to be about the same size.

I look around on Etsy a lot for ideas. I remembered seeing a few files for benches.https://www.etsy.com/listing/1473928732/garden-bench-dxf-files-for-plasma-laser?click_key=e44a486931a4f223eb6677698a93b2cf8945c58a%3A1473928732&click_sum=45dac570&ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=bench+dxf+file&ref=sr_gallery-1-3&organic_search_click=1&dd=1&content_source=5a692a9a3404efa89cf9da3079c6f61bbcfa36ef%253A1473928732

Here is a another design. I like the reduced number of parts and I could make the arm rests on the titan.










May have arms or not

I like the taller back. Now I want one that rocks on a spring. :man_shrugging:

Seriously…that would be soooo cool.

Wish I could add more, as my experience was with stuff we bent or cast at my other fab shop -

But I did help a Langmuir owner from the FB group out of Honduras and he’s been knocking out benches every other week.

He just gets logo’s for soccer teams out there and more and uses those to make his benches. He was never good at taking pics to show me his work, but here are some bad screenshots of videos he’d send me of working getting done -

Until he finally created an online store, here’s a few pics -

He uses mahogany for all his wood work.

Funny to think, I helped make a lot of those DXF files for him lol glad he picked it up and he’s doing it all on his own

I know there are lots of drainage holes in this last one but the tendency for water cohesion, perhaps a subtle angle to the seat might clear the water quicker.
