Thank you. I have to make some dogs for the bench tomorrow. Yes, the legs are pressure treated. I found some old, dryer ones on the bottom of the stack, but they were still wet inside. It was about the best option I had for stout legs and I was hesitant....but it worked out pretty well. I would use them again for bench legs.

That's a beauty. Thanks for sharing the process with us. I'm impressed with the elm, too.
