In 12 weeks you could probably learn how to make a sofa, obtain the materials (wood, foam, formaldehyde, stain remover) and build it. Not DFS tulip either, a proper big one.Comment

Alternatively some foam pads stretched from one end of a wall to the other, but that's almost a sofa already, if not better.Comment

If I was in the market for furniture I'd go to
Auction rooms.
Local blind craft centre. We've had good furniture from them before and it keeps local blind people in employment.
Slask, South West of Poland Can't remember the name of the villages but every second place was a craft furniture manufacturer. Solid buld, no softwood or staples.Comment

Top Tip: Don't buy a bed with drawers underneath. They consist of MDF planks stapled together and cardboard bottoms, which are also stapled. The bottoms fall out as soon as you put something in them and the entire structure disintegrates into a pile of MDF splinters the first time you pull one out and try to push it back in.Comment
