Workbench Console

I saw this and thought I would give it a try. First time building furniture out of dimensional lumber. Worked out for the most part. I forgot that wood dries and shrinks along its width so there are a few small gaps that eventually appeared in between the boards. I am sure they will disappear once summer's humid air arrives. All in all it was pretty straight forward. I switched which side has the towel bar and I modified the bottom shelf to accommodate wine bottles for easy storage. I had fun.
