    I too made this fine bench over the weekend. It’s really solid and the design is top notch!
    There is so little lumber left over – it’s really cool.
    I found a can of stain/urethane at the local “lots” store for $3 so now it has a nice finish on the top

    Thanks for the design!!

    Fantastic!
    One quick addition that might become usefull is to put a cross brace along the backside. If you find over time that is starts to get a little wobbly from side to side, the diagonal cross brace will help. Best of luck making stuff on it!

Don't get me wrong, they're cheap and often get the job done, but they were made to not drive well. They were designed specifically in the early 20th century to cam out when too much force was applied. Now that we have torque-limiting drills this isn't a problem anymore, yet somehow we still use them.

We use the phrase "two by four" in common parlance, but did you know it's actually 3.5 inches wide? Don't make assumptions on size; always measure first.
