From Tree to Bench Woodworking video

A green oak bench made by Tom Bickerdike from a fallen tree. Using just hand tools this bench was created over the space of two days. The oak tree was from Horsenden Hill Woods in North Ealing, London and needed to be felled for safety reasons.
A joiner by trade Tom has a love of working with wood

I have always had a lot of appreciation of people who can do things with wood. I want to make bench like that!

[@fabiomerlin8820]

Super cool! Great video and incredible craftsmanship. Thank you.

[@taher1886]

You've inspired me to do this with my tree log

[@stevehaskett100]

How did it work out?

[@LEORofYAHWEH]

absolutely lovely... grand dad was wood worker, built grandma's house... couldn't read or write, i would later work with wood in different capacity, but wonderful with the hand tools and no "hardware"... love it completely. GOD BLESS

[@PaweKrajewski]

Hello!
Very good job!
You can see that you love wood! I am a carpenter and teacher!
I have a son (3 years old) who "wants to be like daddy :))
Thank you for this movie!
Greetings from Poland! 👍
P.S. This smile of three men on a finished bench is priceless! :))

[@stevehaskett100]

Sounds great!

Very nice; loved watching the hard work that went into creating this nice bench re-purposed from nature's gift! Thanks for sharing it. Also, why on earth would anyone "dislike" this video - I mean, what's not to like, unless you just are not interested in the subject, and in that case why even watch it? Sigh...

[@edyhermantos.2706]

I love the work. Please post another solid wood furniture again. Love natural furniture.

I'm talking to Tom about another video. Just trying to decide what to make next. Thanks for your comment

Clearly missing the point of this video. No one is against power tools but this is a celebration of a man who enjoys direct contact with his material. He is also an accomplished carpenter who uses modern equipment.

Sweet, gotta make one

[@NoweSytuacje]

Beautiful job.
Bark does not have to be removed? Water will get between the bark and wood and will rot.
It seems to me that the bench will be stable when the legs have the shape "W".

[@stevehaskett100]

The bench is good and sturdy 2½ years later. Oak weathers well although it greys in colour

[@NoweSytuacje]

Good wood withstands weather conditions. Four years ago I laid a sidewalk made of pieces of roof rafters, painted with old car oil, which keeps well, in my north-eastern Poland we have extreme weather conditions.

Sorry. I just made the film and unfortunately don't have a lot of contact with Tom at the moment. I'm sure he'd have an idea so why not try to contact him via his website www.thomasbickerdike.com

Loved the video; masterful skill and the bench looks great! Question for you; what would you recommend to finish the wood to protect it from UV/Water over time? I want to build one of these out in my forest and want it to last! Thank you.

I'm just the cameraman but Tom assured me that Oak looks after itself and doesn't need treating.
