How to Build a Japanese Inspired Bench
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 ноя 2015
- In this video, I built this bench using traditional wedge joinery. The center stretcher is attached to the legs with a through tenon and wedged in place with a through tenon.
Wedges hold the top in place. The bench is made of walnut, and the top wedges are made of mahogany.
This type of woodworking is what keeps me building custom furniture.
The finished used was a wipe on satin poly amzn.to/2AWjMWO (affiliate link)
This Bench is from my Japanese inspiration collection.

Very beautiful piece of craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing it.
That is absolutely gorgeous. The mahogany wedges were the perfect touch of color.
Wow, that's a work of beautiful art!
Beautiful bench. Very impressive craftsmanship.
Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship! Great job!
Excellent work on the joinery Brian! A great watch and a great project.
excellent workmanship. love the design of this bench. Thanks for sharing your ideas. Best wishes
Beautiful piece of work, excellent joinery and fantastic timber - a really pleasing result! That will last forever.
besides everyone's compliment i place mine to the jazz music you add to your videos thank you for pleasent time and a great work
Love it. Working on a similar table right now. Thanks for sharing!
How have I not found your channel before now? Absolutely gorgeous build!
Beautiful, great work Brian.
Man this is great. I really love the look of the wedged tenon. I've been interested in traditional joinery for a while and seeing stuff like this really makes me want to get into my shop and try some things.
Nice work!
I have not encountered a better music selection supporting a woodworking video. Great music for any-dang-thing, really. But, such a well thought out pairing to watch wood being worked. So many woodworkers on youtube maintain a keen eye for design and an admirable dedication to the craft and quality of the art, and clearly devote hard work to create videos. With that said, I think an overwhelming number of said mechanics must have had bananas stuck in their ears when they paired their music to otherwise such well worked videos. Nice work. Good ear. Thanks
Superb planning and craftsmanship.
Beautiful piece here.
This is absurdly beautiful. Great stuff.
Beautiful just beautiful, the choice of music was beautiful as well.
That was pretty cool! Thanks for sharing!
Love the design!
Brian, great accuracy and beautiful finishing.

Very beautiful. It would be an honor to have a piece like that.
High skill level required. Great skills shown.
Beautiful work.
Just stumbled on to your channel. Beautiful stuff. Love a lot of the choices you make.
good stuff, great redish finish, cool soundtrack!
It's not everyday I see a radial arm saw being used. Looks like it's in great condition. Also wonderful job on the bench
Nice to look at as you work!
Nice work man! That thing turned out great!
Amazing work.
Excellent... Beautiful piece...
Cheers...
That was excellent!
I like how you attached the top to the legs. I'd been thinking of using that method but hadn't found it in practice. I like the 'double wedge' in contrasting woods, very nice indeed.
beautiful work!
Gorgeous!
Beautiful build
Very solid and sturdy.
Artista!!! complimenti!
...beautiful piece...
amazing work!
Beautiful. Wow, the final images showed such great color and highlighted all of the beautiful design, and workmanship. Amazing. Doctor G.W.
very nice looking bench. The finish is awesome. New Sub.
The fact that you are playing jazz bass and drums is something different. Thanks ok piano too. Dig that. When I play jazz on work site at times it's met with stone ears ........ thanks for a little inspiration with the perspiration.....
Man I've watched a lot of your vids now and you're bad ass at woodworking man. Total inspiration. Good choice in tunes as well and I'm metal head but it works and I like it. :D

I wish this design could be purchased. I saw some other designs on your website but was disappointed when this one wasnt on there. This is my favorite bench build I can find on RUclips but I don't feel confident in taking it on without any plans 😬

Great work, for your next project, Please make a Japanese mallet, I used a claw hammer to repair fences on the farm.
Amazing build Brian. I'm on video number 3 and all of them have been absolute gold!
Love that ! Great job. 1st time viewer. Subscribed, 👍, 🔔.
Love the music!
Very nice thanks for sharing.... Now go tune those hand planes
Perfect.
nice!
Nice.
Nice work Brian. I hope you are playing that Jazz whilst you are working. 🙂
Most often a little Charlie Parker or Miles Davis.
@@Benham_Design Nice choice. 🙂 I hope you don't mind, but I may pinch a few of your ideas, especially the Japanese style. I am working on a dedicated guitar stool and matching guitar stand. I am not sure about whether to have it combined (imagine the old telephone seat/table with the shelf for the phone book), or separate. I guess the final design will dictate my decision..
We all pinch from some place, send me a picture of what you end up with.
Very nice design. Love the high tech packing paper CAD system you used for laying it out.
Would love to know who the awesome piano player is that comes into the sound track around 4 minutes in.

Brian, this turned out looking great. Did you build this from pre-existing plans?
Now THAT, is Art! Well done lad! Well done...Can I have it please?! Lol
Brian Benham ...Your welcome...But you didn't answer if I could have it!
Brian Benham ...Fair enough...Btw, what did you get for it??
Brian Benham Damn! Lol...You'll have to give it to me bro, I'm a poor guy! Lol...Have a blessed day, subbed and look forward to seeing more great work...Shalom
eeeeso si que estuvo bueno 👍👍👍👍👍
you make tasteful joints mate, good work
I have a saw like the one you used to cut your boards to the right lenght. The problem is that i really dont catch why it has the posibilty to turn the whole head with the sawblad 90 degrees till being horizontal and also the column can in theory mover to make +/- 45 degrees crosscuts. Is there any instructional video for taking the best from that kind of saws? I mean, is a really nice tool: Is sturdy, strong.... but is really big and ocupies a lot of space in my very small workshop.
