My Year 12 Industrial Technology major project centers on constructing a bench seat and a coffee table for my outdoor fireplace area. These pieces are meticulously designed to fit a specific location, catering to the backyard’s aesthetic and purpose. The bench seat incorporates storage and weather protection for outdoor pillows. Crafted from sturdy Merbau wood, I’ll use a blend of mechanisation and hand tools for enhanced strength. The addition of natural timber stain enhances the wood’s natural beauty. Stainless steel hinges are employed for durability in our coastal setting. The coffee table, featuring resin-infused Australian Hardwood, showcases modern design with versatility for both indoor and outdoor use. This project not only fulfills my love for the outdoors but also blends practically and aesthetically with our new home’s surroundings.
