Today's project is version 2.0 of heated outdoor furniture... the first being a set of heated outdoor chairs. Those were a more "DIY" version and my goal with the sofa was to make a more "Super Pro" version that utilizes less ready-made parts and to have a more integrated look. The heating pads are huge and are super easy to slide in and out! Let me know what you think in the comments below!

MODERN BUILDS
Hi, My name is Mike Montgomery and I'm a MAKER; a designer, builder, and full-time content creator. Accessibility is my focus with Modern Builds, not simply accessibility of designs, but accessibility in materials, information, and projects themselves. I've focused on creating furniture and DIY projects that are simple enough that any beginner maker can accomplish, yet interesting enough that any expert might be inspired. Building and making is becoming less and less of an exclusive hobby and profession. My goal is to reduce that separation even further.
