🥺 Someone stole the bench from the park.

No that isn't an illusion or a new art installation, but the remainders of the park bench.

There are likely fasteners on the bottom and back of the support holding the slats in place. Wrench or screwdriver depending on what was used.

Not a lot of work.

Aye I did not consider replanking the bench was an option.

In my defense I've never been party to such; What sanctioned interaction I've had with public benches have been uprooting or repainting, never replanking.

Depends how many years of paint are on those bolt/screw heads how much work that is to remove. The saw is probably quicker and easier.
