Description: Build a sturdy bench. Size to meet your needs. As big as 36″ wide x 96″ long. 24″ x 60″ if your space is limited. The top will be 1-1/2″ thick and will be glued up to be a singe piece. The legs will be 2×4 verticals and 3 x 3-1/2 horizontals and will be connected with mortise & tenon joints. Two horizontal stretchers will tie the legs together and will connect to the legs with 7/16″ dia. threaded rods.
A vise can be added by bolting/screwing to the underside of the top. A shelf over the horizontals is an easy add on.
You will be able to complete this project during class.
