Diy Built In Wall Bench
Just ask my neighbor she probably sees me standing and staring at them daily through our front window.
Diy built in wall bench. Cut the strips into panels. This bench adds a rustic appeal to any corner of your home. Our space was pretty simple to add this built in storage bench because we had straight lines to follow and our area below the window was relatively small. Materials 1 x 6 x 120 pine board 1 x 4 x 48 pine board 3 4 in x 49 in x 97 medium density fiberboard 6 ft piece of moulding that matches the trim in the room wood shims 2 30 in x 12 in x 12 in white wall cabinet 291719 2 inch drywall screws 2 1 2 in drywall screws 2 1 2 in pan head sheet metal.
If you have a baseboard measure its height then rip that amount off one of the longer pieces. Cut the footboard in half to use the halves as armrests. So her we go we built a bench and today i am sharing the how to for this diy built in storage bench below is the bench in it s almost finished state. Optionally add hinges to the top instead of using screws to attach it for it to serve as the lid.
Kidding maybe but seriously when i set out to do this project i d thought it 100 times through. Use 2 4 wood and 3 4 thick plywood to create the bench frame. Sand and paint or stain the wood to get the design you. The bench seat starts with an open bottom plywood box.
This way the bench. Two at 69 inches and two at 15 inches. To make the four sides of the box rip two 16 inch strips from a sheet of 3 4 inch plywood using a circular saw.
