The Perfect Bench for Every Occasion. Build it in 60 Minutes! 

easy peazy lemon squeezy. Nice work!

Surely you know that the “speed” part of the speed square is that you don’t have to pivot for a 45…? I was actually shouting at you 😝 JUST FLIP OT OVER! great vid though. I made two in the 30 minutes just by batch cutting extras.

That’s a nice upgrade with the armrests and in my case beer holders, great job running through it for those interested in building

Great job and easy to follow walk through as you built it! Bench came out nice.

Thank you so much sir, for making a video for the beginners. Your explanation and the demonstration of how things go is such a blessing blessing to someone like me. I've been injured on my job and trying to find hobbies to do but not understanding the tools and how to use them but you have made it where a disabled person as myself could at least follow your instructions and make something

Thank you for putting this together. Love the bench and you make it look so easy. I'm sending this vid to my hubby as a hint to make it for the front porch. Thanks again. Great video.

A CLEAN shop is a safe shop!

Thats a good project that should sell well Thanks for the video.

Nice project and nice explanation.

I haven’t used my oscillating saw (multi tool) for years. Thanks for showing how you use it.

You rock partner!!

Great video

Nice job. I have made many Leopold Benches with the plans from Rouge Engineer" design using both size of lumber. I like your addition. Might I suggest a hole saw to make the cup holder. First you would want to spin the hole saw in reverse to score the wood then drill the hole. Scoring will help stop the hole bit from skipping.

Always going to be critics in the comments. Ignore most. Great vid

Love this, thx

Hello again. I'm back to see how you added the arms. Nice job. Also I am shortening the seat and back boards down to 2 feet and made a chair for a customer. I only lowered my price by $20.00 since the same amount of labor but just a little less material. My customer was more that happy to agree. He requested arms so here I am reviewing your process. I added back the $20.00 and he agreed.

Thanks for the video, very entertaining and informative.But, lol, this 60 minute build would take me about 60 hours and I know it isn't as easy as you make it look. That's why I love watching the vidoes and letting you guys do the work. I admire all you fellows for your talent and keep up the great work and videos. Thanks again.

I bought what they call a small pet tent and sat the rear of my miter saw in it. Captures at least 95% of the dust and is flexible enough to pivot for 45 degree cuts. If I remember it was about $20 on amazon. Once every couple of weeks I suck it clean with a hose from the central vac. Good part is my saw is on a rolling base so the tent just comes along.

Nicely Done! Very Nicely Done!!!. I loved the regular guy approach to this. It was great when you said to make a measurement and a cut you pointed to the actual end and point of the board to reference when so many others I've seen just blab "cut 10 inches from end". I'm like what end, what point? Nice bench. I will try one, you 30 mins, me 30 days!!! I might round of that corner at the top of the legs and I think raising up the 2 back rest pieces a few inches so that you can put a curve or curves on the top board which would give it a different look. Maybe even some scroll cut out designs in the back rest pieces. Just my 2 cents, easy for me to say after you had built it. Nicely Done! Very Nicely Done!!! Thank you!!!!!!!

Kinda like this bench. It's different and looks like a fun build. But... may I suggest one thing? On the cupholders, cut out 2 or 3 inches into the support. As is, you have 1-1/2" to sit your beverage. Fine for a coffee cup but disastrous for larger containers.

I like this build. I saw the one Rouge built. I see yo have every scrap that you ever made, just like me. Who says you need a neat shop?

1. Your shop makes my shop look clean. 2. I just built a similar mobile planer stand, but mine looks better. 🤣🤣 3. Love the upgrade to RE’s bench. I was planning on building his, now I’m planning on building yours. You need a bit of practice on camera angles, etc but otherwise a good video.

Could you give a material list or cut dimensions first so that we can screenshot it? This is the first of your videos that I have seen. I look forward to making this and watching your other videos !! Thank you

Looks great. How long can the seat & back boards be cut before a third leg is required?

That top back board looks like it goes from outside to outside of the 2 legs that would make it a 51” board. Did I miss something or can’t I see well enough on my phone screen. Nice job!

Could you use the cutoffs from the back to make the arm supports under the cup holders?

With the speed square (at 3:05) all you had to do was flip the square over! The other side is a 45!

Is there a reason why you are “pulling” the miter saw blade vs. bringing the miter saw out, plunging down, and then “pushing” the blade to finish the cut.

Miter cut not bevel

Nice.

NICE

Do i have to gain 50’lbs to make this ?
