Exactly what I've been looking for! Thank you for including your plans at the beginning! I'm building a banquette in our dinky kitchen and I hadn't settled on a good plan. Love the tapered front. Everything else I see is so boxy.
Great build definitely taking some inspiration from this design. Primarily I was looking for a backrest design which your is perfect. I did grab the cutlist but wanted to know is the bevel for the top of the backrest (connects to the seat). 15° or 11°? Not marked so going based on what I believe to be the seats. New to woodworking and understanding plans so unsure if I am reading it correctly.
I used these brackets on the top of the back and then the bottom has large stick on velcro patches. The seats are just velcro. www.amazon.com/Sydien-Universal-Interlock-Furniture-Connector/dp/B07Q2V1XSP?pd_rd_w=hzAkY&pf_rd_p=1a37ebd3-847a-476b-b9f6-6ca64f4f5919&pf_rd_r=NAERY5HA1S7E5X2P8PRW&pd_rd_r=28f4b2c7-9b70-4805-98f9-809646d0f7e5&pd_rd_wg=9wPCN&pd_rd_i=B07Q2V1XSP&psc=1&ref_=pd_bap_m_rp_34_sc
Great video! Looking to do something similar. Did you upholster the cushions yourself or purchase them? Not sure the approach I'd like to take for that yet.
Thanks for watching! I upholstered the cushions myself with 1/4:" Plywood and staples. I tried to video that process but my camera was acting up and there was just too much footage lost. Anyway there are a lot of videos showing the process on youtube. What I did was really basic.
It's real good because it's supported in front and back all the way down. Also when you sit there you overlap the vertical cross board that makes up the back of the rack. The middle shelf being permanently attached with pocket holes adds to the rigidity. It shows no movement when I apply my 220 lbs.
All I have is a cut plan. I used a 3d program that isn't intended for building for some of my planning and I just winged it for some of it. I can send you the images of the cut plan if that would help.
A drill, circular saw, saw, pocket hole jig- these are all tools attainable for the average diy person. $14 harbor freight gun run from a $100 hf compressor. I didn't even use a table saw. I built the panel saw myself, which you can substitute a circular saw for. I am not a professional and I did it myself, which by definitions makes it diy.
No boxy frame out of 2x4's , tapered front, love it! Gonne steal this plan.. Thank you sir! Greetings from the netherlands

Thank you very much for this video. This is just what I have been looking for.
Officially inspired! Great video and design
I love your use of the diagrams along with you actually doing the build! Great video!
Phenomenal work man.
Looks great cuz!

Thanks for asking. The back rest is 11° and the surface that touches the floor is 15°.
Awesome video. Very well done. What thickness ply are you using and what size sheets?
Thanks for asking! The ply is 3/4" or metric equivalent birch 11 layer. The sheets start at 4'x8'.
Great design! It's giving me ideas on how to build my own. What did you use for mounting the backrest?
I used these brackets on the top of the back and then the bottom has large stick on velcro patches.

Do you have the overall dimensions of the bench?

How is the seating over the shoe rack? As in, how much weight can it support?
It's real good because it's supported in front and back all the way down. Also when you sit there you overlap the vertical cross board that makes up the back of the rack. The middle shelf being permanently attached with pocket holes adds to the rigidity. It shows no movement when I apply my 220 lbs.
What program did you use to show these breakouts like this? This is very nice. Great build sir! You can tell you are a craftsman!
This was modeled and rendered in Maya 2018. Thanks for your interest!
Hi Jared what’s the spacing you went with 16 o.c. Or lager??
I'm not sure what you mean.
@@jaredmortondesigns7258 I’m referring to the spacing from each of your vertical support pieces
I see. The spacing is about 18 inches. That seemed like the right number of compartments for the size of the bench.
any chance you've got the plans anywhere avaiilable for download?
All I have is a cut plan. I used a 3d program that isn't intended for building for some of my planning and I just winged it for some of it. I can send you the images of the cut plan if that would help.
Thank you very much I think that could help. although if that's just what you show at the beginning of the video I can probably just screengrab that.
@@markbott7753 yea. It's the same
Excellent
"DIY" from a workshop with tools and machines worth 10.000s of $. Why put DIY in the title?

@@jaredmortondesigns7258 There's always one in the comments lol
Face it, you’ll never do it yourself without the right tools, no matter what. Quit crying.
