I've been working on this Hall Bench for my son and his wife. It is going to be a house warming gift for the new house they just built. I also wanted a piece that would be considered a keepsake for generations to come. The top will have three mirrors and three coat hooks in the top when it is done. I will post more pictures when I'm done.

Absolutely beautiful. They will love it.....................and you!

That's pretty nice.
What keeps the seat in place? Hard to tell from the pics.

 

[grandpas passion]

Flush hinges on the back and the front just rests on the front board. I don't attach it until after I varnish it.

Are the inside of the panels plywood or solid wood? If it is plywood, it looks like a very good grade.

 

[grandpas passion]

The inside panels are A1 grade from a local lumber yard. I finally found a source other then Menards.

Final Product

Here is the final project. Was a fun project and once again learn several things during the construction. Can't wait to give it to my son and his wife.

It turned out great!:thumbsup:

Congrats it turned out great!! I can see you got one mirror installed. :smile:

 

[grandpas passion]

All three mirrors were installed it is just showing my furnace behind me. I placed the mirrors in, in a way that they can be easily taken out and my son can put pictures of his children in if they want.
