How to build a cedar firewood bench for your porch
In short: This video demonstrates how to construct a sturdy, slatted storage bench using western red cedar. It provides a convenient way to keep a stockpile of dry wood near your door while offering a practical seat for removing snowy boots.
DIY expert Jenn Largesse explains how to create a functional piece of outdoor furniture that avoids complicated joinery. By using western red cedar cladding over an inner structure of cedar 2xs, the bench is durable enough to remain outside year-round on a sheltered porch.
The design focuses on accessibility and weather resistance, ensuring firewood remains close to the entrance to make stoking a fire a simpler task.
