This is a bench that I have built for a friend of mine to fit exactly in her entry way. I made it in the spirit of the Pottery Barn furniture that she already has. I used regular Douglas Fir found at anywhere lumber is sold.
The bench was put together using mostly 2-1/2″ pocket hole screws. I use my Kreg Pocket Hold Jig to drill the holes, but any jig should work.
