DIY Modern Slatted Bench | Modern Builds | EP. 39

Today on Modern Builds, I'm making a mid-century modern inspired slatted bench constructed with half-lap joinery. The bench can be resized longer to fit more people or can be made wider to be used as a coffee table. If you're planning on building this project, don't forget to check out my written article for materials and plans.

Awesome work! My girlfriend and I watch these and get so pumped for the wipe on finishes, we both gasped and went "POLYURETHANE!"

Just finished my top up, just alder for the slats and oak for the end and central piece, hoping that its gonna give a nice contrast specially with the finish is applied. Next up is to my buddys press brake to make the legs. Great video and thanks for the inspiration! :-)
