  • Build a window/reading bench with storage, and learn to upholster a leather seat.
    Using 1 sheet of plywood, I built a window bench with three storage cabinets. I made 3 cabinet doors using MDF, and upholstered a seat cushion using leather.

    I loved how he didn’t use a router table and used a table saw to make the lapels! I learned something today!

    I love it! I may give it a try. I need one in my craft room. Mostly for my dogs to sit on. They like to look out the window while I craft!

    Wow Too funny I actually made one like that two years ago for a friend. But i did not put a cushioned bench seat on it. I left it as hardwood finish. All natural no paint. Yours looks amazing and If I was to make another i would definitely add the cushioned seat.

    I was worried when you started with such rough construction grade plywood, but man, it turned out very nice! I really liked the tip about compressing the foam when you stapled the leather in place.

      same here, then the visible part was in mdf..would have been strong enough just with mdf, unless needs to seat for 500 pound people...

  • @Dingbat217
    @Dingbat217 7 лет назад +37

    Nice project but I do think you need more and bigger holes for the two heating registers, there's a lot of airflow coming out of those when the heating is on! :-)

    • @vaulimere
      @vaulimere 7 лет назад +10

      My thoughts as well. It's basically holding all the heat from those vents in the small space behind the kickplate. I would suggest making channels from the floor vents to larger vents in the kickplate if you need more of the heat/air in that room.

  • @666dynomax

    turned out pretty good. SEeing some comments about your vents, you could just get some nice white vents and cut those out and stick em in... 3" look like they'd fit.

    Nice project, BUT you should really think about using a push block on that table saw. When you lose a digit, you'll start using one.

    I have to agree with the comment about the knobs. I think you could have probably made them more cemetrical so that they all opened up with the same swing (R to L). Otherwise, nice work!
