FAST 3 hour dock rebuild

What happens here

The custom-beveled boards are brought back to the dock and carefully placed into their designated sections. These specialty pieces ensure that the dock's surface transitions smoothly at angles, preventing any tripping hazards and providing a finished, aesthetic look. Once the main dock surface is complete, the project moves to rebuilding the dock bench. The old wooden bench is disassembled, but the carriage bolts are saved for reuse. New holes are drilled into the composite boards for the bench, accommodating the saved carriage bolts. A third board is added to the bench for increased seating comfort and stability. The bench boards are then secured into place using the carriage bolts and a wrench.

Goal: Complete the dock surface with specialty cuts and rebuild the integrated bench.

Tools and materials

  • Cordless Drill DeWalt — Drilling holes for the bench boards
  • Hammer — Removing old nails from the existing bench
  • Wrench — Tightening the carriage bolts on the bench
  • Carriage Bolts — Securing the bench boards
  • Rust-Oleum Spray Paint Rust-Oleum — Protecting salvaged carriage bolts from rust
