This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP curriculum. Completing this BB is part of getting the iron badge in round wood woodworking.

For this BB, you will build a swinging bench in a skiddable structure!


(source: ebay.com)

Minimum requirements:
 - must be made with roundwood (no dimensional lumber)
 - no cracks
 - sand and oil the bench (must use a natural and nontoxic oil, like raw linseed oil or tungsten oil)
 - you don't need to build the skiddable structure for this BB

To get certified for this BB provide photos or video (less than 2 minutes) showing the following:
- Your chunks of wood that you are starting with
- Progress about halfway through, with the hand tools you have decided to use for this
- List any power tools you used (Otis would love it if you only used hand tools)
- sanding the bench
- show what you're oiling the bench with
- oiling the bench
- The final product hanging in a skiddable structure
