Dear Ana White.,
First, I am a fan of your woodworkingand I follow you on YT. I like your approach to projects, making it simple and easy but still making very fine pieces that both are nice looking at and good for use.
My former neighbor needed a bench in the hallway of her new apartment; with the desired measures (roughly) 5’x19-20”x18” (150x50x45 cm). And then I saw your mudroom bench on YouTube which inspired me building my own bench according to the general ideas from yours’. So, I made like a frame with 2x3”, then I let the plywood sides proceed down to the floor, leaving a space between the carcass and the floor of 15 cm (6”), for shoes. Three drawers and using a scrap bit as space block for the drawer slides it was not that hard to get them in place. The top sheet is a slab of massive oak that are sold as “shelf material” at our local store (Bauhaus, possibly the Swedish equivalent for home Depot?).
I think it turned out pretty well, and I am grateful for your work, inspiring me and making my own woodworking easier.
