My husband and I did this as a weekend project. We had been looking for a bench like this for quite some time but they were either cheaply made or way too expensive. My husband went through the plans and decided he could do it. We added a shelf to it and also made it larger to fit the area we were putting it in. The great thing about the plans is that you are able to easily modify them to create what you are looking for.
