I actually started blogging about all my projects so that i would have to finish them.
Diy dining room bench seating.
Diy dining 3 10 a rustic diy farm table deserves a set of comfy handmade chairs like these upholstered parsons dining chairs.
I started this project in january before i started blogging and it has taken too long to finish but it is done now.
First you need to cut all your wood.
Yet another easy to build diy bench is available at my outdoor plans.
First we will.
Cut wood to length.
Sand pieces of wood.
Cut the footboard in half to use the halves as armrests.
I first found a more oval style oak table that fit the space much better at my local goodwill.
The dining room built in bench with storage is finally done.
The chairs cost about 40 each to diy and less if you already have.
Use 2 4 wood and 3 4 thick plywood to create the bench frame.
Optionally add hinges to the top instead of using screws to attach it for it to serve as the lid.
Adding this table provided a bit more space for seating so i knew that the diy built in dining bench would be the perfect addition.
This way the bench.
I re stained the oak table using my trusted refinishing an oak table method.
Now that everything is cut and sanded you are ready to build a bench.
Sand and paint or stain the wood to get the design you.
Like the image shows the bench seat rests on two blocks which sets it 16 off the ground.
