EP. 66 DIY PLATFORM BENCH WITH BUILT IN SIDE TABLE

This project is the combination of a lot of inspiration pieces. That's all in the video and I don't need to explain it here. Below is a cut list and supplies list. I made my bench a little tall. I've already adjusted the dimensions in the plans.

MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES:

1/2 sheet of 3/4" plywood (I used maple)

2- 2x3's

Edge banding: http://amzn.to/2r7TKb8

CUT LIST:

________________

Plywood: 16" wide

1 @ 48"

2@ 6"

1 @ 16"

________________

Legs:

14"x14" square.

I started by cutting a piece of 3/4" plywood to 16" wide.

Next, I used a circular saw and clamping straight edge to cut my plywood to size.

I used edge banding to hide the ply's on the edge of the plywood.

Pocket holes are a quick and easy way to attach the three pieces of the end table.

There's not room to attach the assembly to the platform though. The pocket screw bit s too long, instead I attached it from underneath.

I used glue and brad nails to make a quick drawer. No dimension just because you'll need to measure to fit you own end table. Just in case there are variances.

After attaching the drawer face, I screwed in the drawer pull.

Pocket screws and glue are a quick and strong method of making the bottom assembly.

My mom was nice enough to sew a cusion for me, if that's not an option for you check out an upholstry shop, or pre-made outdoor/indoor cushions and build to fit that.

Thanks for looking, if there's anything else I can help with either contact me through email or instagram DM (for a quicker response) @modernbuilds
