Wouldn't it be nice to sit on the perfect bench and get pleasure from your porch or back yard? Or possibly you have been looking for the perfect piece for your foyer so you can sit and take your shoes off when you get home. With the right set of woodworking bench plans you can make exactly what you need and want.
It is a lot simpler than you might think to construct a bench. With a good set of plans and a weekend's worth of time, plus a small investment in materials you can build that perfect piece. It doesn't matter if you are not a master craftsman, or that you don't have a enormous woodworking shop.
There are many different woodworking bench plans out there. I know because I have looked at many of them. In my opinion I recommend that you stay away from any thing that says free. At best you get an exploded view diagram with not much info. At worst you get an ad for something with an never-ending stream of emails attempting to sell you more stuff.
After awhile I fell upon an online library of woodworking plans with more than fourteen thousand different projects. Yes I did say over 14,000 individual plans (for only fifty bucks too). I know seems impossible, but it is true.
The coolest thing is that not only did I get the plans I also got a password to the member's only area where, get this, they have limitless use of an huge video tutorial library! All the tricky stuff can be watched on a step by step video showing precisely how to do it.
I learned so much, all kinds of little tips and tricks that the pros use that make different operations so much simpler. And this is stuff I would have never been able to figure out on my own.
So armed with my super duper woodworking bench plans (which there are approximately 25 different designs to choose from) I decided to make my bench. I printed out the material list that came with the plans complete with all the hardware I would need (fasteners too), and went to the lumber yard. With everything I spent less than $300.00 and that included the wood finish.
My bench came out perfectly! My wife and I sincerely enjoy taking a cup of tea and going and sitting on our bench in our back yard and watching our kids as they get all goofy with each other running around. It really does not get much better than this.
And to think, I nearly spent $1700.00 on a bench that pales in contrast to the one I made. Everybody can do this. If you have the least bit of interest in this, I encourage to spend the few dollars on these great woodworking bench plans.
