A Bench That Fits Every Room by Daniel Chaffin
comments (1) July 31st, 2009 in Reader's Gallery
The clean, contemporary style of this bench (Fine Woodworking, A Bench That Fits Every Room by Daniel Chaffin, issue # 207) makes it versatile enough to use in the dining room, foyer, hallway, porch, or even the back yard. The seat slats are tapered with beveled edges. The routed groove in the legs serves a dual purpose -- hiding the glueline and adding a design element. A simple planer jig and templates make it easy to build multiples of this bench. And aside from the mortise-and-tenon joints, everything on it, from the tapers to the grooves to the pocket joints, is simple to execute.
