Love the plans, but now downloading seems impossible! You used to be able to just click. For some reason the links send me back to the beginning of the plan.
There is no link at the bottom of the blog.
Gracias por el envío de este proyecto. Deseo realizar esta misma banca pero en versión única. Es decir que contenga un solo lugar para sentarse y no dos como este proyecto. Existe ese modelo? Gracias.
I cannot figure out how to print the plans! The directions say that there will be a link at the bottom of the page, but I cannot find the right one.
Where is the link to download and print the plans for the double bench ??? It is impossible to find.
Cant sign in to download plans
Please advise
Thank you love the plans
Caint find the plans
I have the plans. There were all right there on the website. I made this double bench. Mine doesn’t look anything like the pictures! The seat slats do not line up perfectly with the back slats. There’s no way that’s it’s even possible considering the 2×4 supports don’t line up. The measurements for the seat supports don’t make sense because the middle table doesn’t fit. I had to modify the dimensions of the table top make it fit.
It’s a nice bench but these plans are less than desirable.
How didn’t yours line up? I’ve cut and stripped all the wood almost before I stain then seal it. Ive went over the instructions and I dont see the flaws. Will be bummed though since I’m a begginer and this is my first project lol.
I have the downloaded plans and I look at them many times before I make my first cut. There are many dimensions missing from the plans. This makes it challenging for a beginner but not impossible for a seasoned wood builder. I will build it to the specs given and will make corrections if needed and take notes. Remember measure twice, cut once.
