Uh....what!?! This is great. Didn’t follow any of it. I have none of these tools but still watched the whole video. Nice job!

Awesome project, Brad. This was a really nice one, love the contrast of the Walnut top and painted base.

Great video and plans -- I made this for my daughter - she loves it. I used a bamboo top from Lowes (had left over from another project). Made it a bit taller and put 3 adjustable shelves. Thanks for this one!

Nice build en well done on editing the video! Respect for not cutting out the screw-ups you've made and actually showing solutions to the problems you've encountered. Keep it up! Greetings from Holland.

I need a storage bench for my office to hold a rackmount server and MFP. Your bench is similar in style to what I'm looking for and I think I that I can adapt it to what I need. Thanks for the inspiration!

Looks cool and I like the contrast of the walnut top! Now my wife wants one built

Been binging on a lot of your videos lately and noticed a certain design and build style, which is clearly working for you and I like for it's simplicity.
This project came out great, and that walnut with sapwood made the final piece truly unique. Others would have cut away the sapwood for a uniform top for a result that wouldn't look much different than something off Wayfair.

Found myself fast forwarding though this video. Nothing wrong with it, but I couldn't wait to see the walnut as the finish went on. Always satisfying that!

Nice, practical piece of furniture. Walnut on white always works.

Dude. Was doing a quick look around the web for some inspiration for a shoe bench. Stumbled on this and didn't expect to find this level of craftsmanship but so glad I did. Subbed.

Great Build and that Walnut really looks nice on the top. Well Done.

Thanks for this video. I have build a shoe cabinet for our house based on it. I only had a jig saw to cut the plywood so you can imagine that it was quite a project 😊. Only my third one but I love the result.

That top looks amazing! The bevel was a great idea and really adds to the look!

[RSLWoodworking]

Brad that's awesome. Great job. The top looks amazing when you put the finish on it.

[LocutusOfTim]

Amazing. Just getting into wood working and your channel is exactly what I'm looking for.

[twes]

And I thought I had a lot of tools... Man, I love your setup. Nice work!

The small kreg jig you had on the bench while hammering the plugs in has a recess on the bottom to drive those plugs in. Kreg actually sells the plugs too.

Now to get the kids to put the shoes in the bench! Kreg makes a single hole pocket jig that has lip on it meant to help push the precut plugs in place. Nice build!
