Nice vid! I would have done the same thing at some point but now i'm always looking to hide that end grain. Also removing the rounded corners on the 2x4s elevates the finished look.
Thank you! You could do a miter joint on the ends to hide the end grain, I bet it would look really nice. I attempted to remove the rounded corners but I have a wimpy craftsman table saw the just doesn’t have the power for it. It took me about 20 min to get one side of a 2x4 done…
@@pnwconcretehouse8581I always run my 2x4 thru my table saw. The round edge looks bad. But I almost never use them for furniture because it is nearly impossible to find good straight pieces.
Looks good. Definitely seems sturdy. Only nitpick I have is that you could have gotten some of the wooden covers for pocket holes to make the legs on the back look better but that's a small thing and leaving it open does mean that you can take it apart if necessary. Well done. 😁👍
Thank you, you can certainly fill the holes with dowels it's just a bit more time consuming. And honestly, the angle that they are at I don't even see them.
There is nothing quite like the feeling of getting first comment! Thanks for the support, and great to hear you are going to give it a go and make one yourself.
@@pnwconcretehouse8581 I am from Malaysia. We don't have pine locally so its kinda pricey as its imported. And most wood I can find here locally are hard wood which itself is also pricey.
Growing up I learned that screws were only used if you planned on later taking whatever apart. Personally I would use a quality wood glue. And $60, for that? You got overcharged.

I would have removed the rounded edge of the 2x4. Then you bench would be flush with the small spacers (the 1" thick squares)
You are right, I actually did make it flush with the belt sander, but it certainly would be easier to do beforehand if you have a planer.
@@pnwconcretehouse8581 your 1x4 have square edges and the 2x4 are rounded. You need to sand a lot to remove the rounded edge.
@@b3arwithm3 Correct, a planer would be an easier way to do it

Where I am from..... that amount of material would cost around close to 200 USD.
Nice work there.
Dang, that's pricey! Where are you from?

@@TCsAnythingGoes I bet it would look amazing built from hardwood, but super expensive!

Glad you liked it, and thank you for the anecdote from your childhood!
Very very beautiful but your voice and everything was so loud…. I have to mute it.
Thank you!
