Evolution Benches, part 1

I've started work on a set of 2 matching benches I'm calling the 'Evolution Benches'. They are made from materials that have served their purpose and are now changing into something else, hence the name.  The form will be very similar to the Pallet Bench I completed in '09 .


The seats are made from pallet wood that has been planed, sanded, and fixed together.  The legs are bomb fins that are stripped and polished.
