    • What are the steps to your sand box and how do you keep weeds from growing they the bottom of it?
      By Agartin, on June 15, 2016
      • I used a plan by Ana-white. It's on concrete so I don't have to worry about weeds. I'm sure you could use the barrier people put in their garden beds to prevent weeds.

    • We are big fans! You're right, it turned out awesome!! Did you use a projector to trace the lettering?
      By RYOBI NATION, on April 27, 2018
    • I don't have a projector so I printed off one big letter per page and traced it.

    • These shelves look great! How did you hang these?
      By RYOBI NATION, on April 27, 2018
      • The shelves slide over a frame I built and screwed into the studs. I then put screws through the shelves into the frame. 
        By kyleepete, on July 28, 2018
    • I love how deep these are!! The look amazing!

    • This is beautiful. Great job! Any tips for those of us who may want to replicate?
      By amitbshah85, on June 16, 2018
    • Yes! I used plans from Ana-White for the outdoor couch. The plans and how to video are actually on Ryobi's website. You can also find them at Ana-white.com. I built the outdoor couch and the one arm sectional piece. I originally planned to only make those two pieces but ended up making an extra seat to maximize the space after I realized it was cutting off my patio too much. You can see the extra piece between the two couches. I would recommend sanding and staining before you build. It was kind a pain to sand and stain every nook and cranny after it was built. 
      By kyleepete, on June 17, 2018
    • This is a super nice space you've created!
      By RYOBI NATION, on June 19, 2018
      • This is very nice! Where do I get the video and/or the instructions? Thanks so much Kyleepete and RYOBI NATION.

        By kyleepete, on June 28, 2018
    • That is really fantastic! 
      I built the Ana White/Ryobi Couch as a Mom Day project with my son. Best project EVER!!!! We use it DAILY!!!

    • Nice job! It's great to have a spot to sit that also saves space and allows you to get rid of other not-so-pretty furniture pieces. 
      By RYOBI NATION, on July 23, 2018
    • What is the finish? 
      By markemark, on July 23, 2018
      • I used tintable chalkboard paint from Lowes. I can't seem to remember the color, but I know it was from their favorites list. 
        By kyleepete, on July 26, 2018
      • Then I used lime wash to give a more dimension.  
        By kyleepete, on July 26, 2018
    • Love the color! 
      By Natnatbug, on July 27, 2018

      By RockyJ, on July 29, 2018
    • Can we see how you access the filing cabinet portion now that it's on it's side? 
      By NewYorkDave, on July 30, 2018
      • I’m currently out of state on vacation but I’ll upload a pic when I get back. 
        By kyleepete, on August 1, 2018
      • I took a picture of the filing bench/filing cabinet open but in order to upload a new pic (edit) it says that the project will be deleted and I'll have to resubmit it. The top on this piece basically just opens up. I installed a continuous hinge on the back and used a support hinge to keep it open. I put rails on the inside where the files can hang. If you have any more questions let me know!
        By kyleepete, on August 18, 2018
