Man when come back online, you don't DISAPPOINT!!! LUV IT!!!
Thank you for the kind words.
That's right!!!
Glen has to be one of the few CZcamsrs I look forward to every single time. I'm curious to know what he be building next.
Glad you are back , great content… hope everything is going well…. Take care
Thank you :). All is will just seem to have less time these days.
Do you plan on making plans for this build?
I love the contrast between the painted and stained surfaces. Great job as always!
Thank you very much! I guess you could say I like the color too I'm making a series out of it lol.
LOVE this bench ! You are so thorough, precise, easy to follow - and funny. Glad I found you.
WOW! This furniture set is so beautiful!!! You have a real talent, you make it look so easy and I want to learn woodworking like this! Thank you soooo much! This Is a real treat!
Thank you :)
O man I really miss you & Your assignment.
Your performance never disappoints me.
Nice to see you posting content again. And the timing of THIS video is perfect, as my wife just informed me "we need" new pool area furniture! She's gonna LOVE this!
Been watching you for years and as an ex Florida man I have always thought you did great- but it should be noted: your voiceover skills (timing, voice inflection, concise info, pace of delivery etc) have improved dramatically! Not that it was bad before at all, it’s just a skill like wood working. I notice the change every video and feel you have gotten much much better!
I greatly enjoy your videos and appreciate the effort you put forth to make them, thumbs up for sure
Hey ya'all DIY Creators is back. Love the built.
Didn't even know you sold the plans. Bought a couple now just waiting for this one. God I am glad your back. Love the videos and the projects. The most I like about you is working with materals such as pine, cheap and I don't worry about messing up but yet they look SO GOOD!!!
Woohoo,he's back . Awesome project as always.Happy days,cheers 😊.
Thanks again!
This set is really shaping up nicely!! Thank you for your positivity and encouragement - I feel like even I could tackle these projects after I watch your videos!
Thank you :)
Miss your video buddy, welcome back!
Hey, thanks!
Welcome back.. don't leave again bro... ur the best of the best with this diy stuff
I LOVE your approach to projects, and your explanations for each step. You've inspired me to get back to the shop!
Soooooooooo happy to have you back!!! This project was amazing, as expected!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Glad you’re back! You were missed brother. Keep the videos coming.
I hit the follow button when you pulled out the dowels and i was glad i did when you pulled out the plane. Im glad i stumbled upon your channel
I love your stuff, it’s different. Wish I was better at doing things like this, it takes me forever, but my youngest two boys be wanting to eat every 10 min (not kidding)
Amazing job!
Welcome back brother. Looking forward to your 2024 projects
Well I know what I'm making at the weekend, great job Glen.
С такими инструментами творить одно удовольствие!
I find your videos addictive, Respect.
I appreciate that!
Glad you are here. Thank you.
I am still getting used to the unusual legs, but the aggressive spacing on the bench seating is stellar, it's kind of like over sized Cove Molding in a smaller room - If it works, it really works, I am looking forward to binging your channel.
So happy to see you back my dude
Cheap, easy to build and contemporary. What's not to like! Nice work Glenn.
Really amazing work, Glen! 😃
I loved the design!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
You were missed - ❤ We love your content ❤ you are amazing - can I pray that everything is going well with you XOXO❤
You can also use it as a coffee table. Lovely stuff my dude
Thank you. I like the way you explain things.
Anytime!
I've always liked your designs. Good job
I am so glad you are back yasssss 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Absolutely love it bro.
Don't worry about being behind on schedule. You put out great content. We'll wait. 👍🏾
Glad to see you back. I hope you're sorted out.
First Class Job
Thanks!
Only thing I would add is two wings that would slide out. One to hold a beverage, the other to hold a music speaker !
Fold back under when not in use.
Nice! sounds like a cool addition. I can see that
Hey Glen!!! Good to see you here and still at it. This is a really nice project and easy to make. Patio is starting to look awesome!
Good work and keep at it, bro. Keeping busy is a great way to keep the mind away from life issues.
Thank man! I'm staying busy for sure. It's good for me.
You've created some beautiful outdoor, or indoor furniture! I certainly applaud you. I also offer you my thanks for showing us the build process. 😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤
So good, man! Love how you don’t halfway do anything. This looks great.
Thank you!
Love this!
Thank you
Welcome back, it's so good to see your creations. The bench turned out great. I was wondering if you can add solar lights to the next outdoor furniture for this series.
Well done Glen. Another great project.
Thank you!

Welcome Back!!!! You have once again inspired me. 🙂
Best woodworking site on CZcams. You are awesome, sir. Thank you so much!
It’s always awesome to see what you make with common construction lumber. Keep up the great projects!!
Great job, really. You're truly good at what you do. Love those minimalist outdoor bench and chair combo. THANX!
nice to be seeing you building stuff. I wish I have my own workshop space. Anyway, salam from Singapore
Thanks! I hope you get one one day
so satisfying to watch and inspiring as well
Great build! Awesome to see you back in the shop...kinda! Blessings!!!
Thanks, I always exciting to be in the shop.
Your amazing teacher, with grand and wonderful designs, I wish you made more videos
Thank you, I understand my goal is to produce more. Time has been hard to come by.
Nice! And again, love the color scheme.
Thank you!
Welcome back!
Thanks!
Increible trabajo👏👏!! Buenisimo el video👏👏!!
Thank you
Glad you're back.
You are brilliant!
Thanks!
I must sign, elegant design.
Super idea, great quality finish, love your style. Thank you.
Cant wait to see the full complete set
Glad to see you back! You might want to consider placing some rubber or plastic feet on the bottom of the stands to get them off the ground a little to let water run under them and help lengthen the life of the bench outside (as well as protect the bottom painted surface from getting scratched off by concrete). Overall - I like the style.
Thanks! I'm going to put some adjustments feet on all the pieces when done. With the temp feet I put on its so I slide them around for now.
Love the bench. I loved it so much I shared it with my wife, and I don't care if she adds it to the Honey Do list.
Ooh man love the new bench it really matches my garden theme! I think I’ll have to make it!
Fantastic and soothing narration dude. Very clean build. Thanks!
Thanks for the ideas. Appreciate you man!
Thank you for tuning in!
Looks absolutely amazing, I love the addition of the lights aswell
Man I love your videos. Welcome back Glen!
Thanks man! Much love
Instead of bondo, you can save your sawdust from your cuts and sanding, mix it with the wood glue you already have and make a filler 😊
Your work looks so good I’d put it in my living room just beautiful
Dude, it's been a minute since I last watched one of your videos.... Solid content (as always)
Appreciated
Now I want to build a set like that. Very nice work. I never thought about putting LED lights with a bench. Nice touch.
Yeahhhhh!!! Always excited to see you post!
NICE!!! Would love to see you build an outdoor dining/coffee table next....
Awesome! Helps me build confidence to start tackling house projects
This came out beautifully & the set together looks fantastic 👌🏽
You a bad boy. Love your content and your style. I'm truly inspired as so many of us are. I also enjoy the fact that you are a perfectionist at your craft. Keep the content coming. I take something away from each video.
Привет из России! Бро ты классный! У тебя Золотые руки!❤
Like the fowl jig
Love this! Looks like even I might be able to build it. :) I so appreciate your teaching style. Thank you for sharing.
Very nice. I appreciate your clear explanation of the project. 👍🏻👍🏻
I love the bench. I am totally going to make this.
Definitely stealing this to build for my dads new house
It's all yours!
Thx God you back ,
Can create a super diy briquettes home made
I love the "good enough" commentary. You understand what could be done, but, is all that extra work for some closer level of perfection worth it? I can learn a lot from you. Thanks!
If I am selling to someone I waste too much time trying to prefect it. I guess you gotta understand the situation. When you're making things for yourself if something is gonna bother you, it's worth going the extra mile for it. I know I'm not using high-end lumber and hiding all imperfection wouldn't make much of a difference.
Has been awhile, good to see you back. Hope all is well! 👍😎
Thank you. Time waits for no one, trying to keep up 😀
Great build! Love the channel! Only wish you made more of them! 😁😁
Looks super-stylish! I'd imagine a brazier in-between for extra oomph.
i just subscribed from the first 10 seconds of you being direct. Refreshing :D
So in love with these ❤
