You can already tell the “next level” skills when you were assembling the face frame. It’s like night and day compared to your “beginner” build. It would have been awesome to have done a before and after shot of the little nook. Great job! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this video! I was glued to the screen. (That sounds like I'm attempting a carpenter joke, but I'm not). I really appreciate all the tips, how you break the task down into doable parts, your explanation of how you solved the problems, and your sense of humor.
Great Job! Looks like you already figured out all carpenters keep their "breaking down" station right at the door. Have to think about flow, so the largest things are going to be coming in and out right at that door, so keep your isles wide and that space clear. Get you a couple different sizes of centipede tables to use right there - you won't regret it and you're back will thank you one day!
Thank JB! You are absolutely right, the quicker I can unload and load up the fast and easier things are for me. I appreciate you advice. Thanks for watching through this video btw!
@@Wouldwoodwork looking at my bay window right now, and yes let's go. Yours is definitely the one I want to achieve out of the others I've watched today!
TY so much for the full commentary - really helps. I do have a question. I have trouble keeping corners square. Even if I use a square they seems to shift. Can you talk more about that. I even got a corner jig but well...hmm....maybe its operator error here?
@@marymacfarlane4275 thanks! Are you corners not square on your face frames or the actual cabinet? If it’s the cabinet make sure you use stretchers when building them on the back and tops. Make sure the pieces are cut to the same length as well, that’ll ensure they are square. If it’s the face frame. You want to make sure your vertical cuts and horizontal cuts are cut to the same measurement to a 1/16”
Great work - I’m doing something similar and wondering if the plywood for the top of the bench that gets upholstered was cut flush with the front or did you overhang it a little?
I am working on a project and would love to build this! You don't happen to have any plan drawings do you? I am making two - one on each side of my fireplace insert cabinet. I have approximately 90" on both sides - so a long bench. I am also considering making them come around the corner - so corner bench seats? I would love your thoughts and would be happy to pay for any drawings/plans!
At the moment I do not have plans on this but that's a good idea to design one for you guys! I'll try to sketch something out for you as an idea of what you can do with your space
I wonder how the foam is holding up after ten months? We are about to have window seats built for our room. I wish I could say we are actually building the seat ourselves.
I'll post a picture of our window seat this evening if you want to take a look. Come back around 8 pm. It looks great! there are a few ripples in the seat but overall still in great condition.
@@Wouldwoodwork I'll check it out -- or at least will try - when I get off work. We are having someone else build the seat because we don't have the tools or talent but we are considering making the cushion part ourselves. Just got to find a turkey cutter now!
Excellent presentation! Love your work! Can you please share a good list of power equipment needed for a beginner wood working hobbist at home? thank you!

Well done all around project and video
It's beautiful! Hopefully I can use this video to guide me through building my own banquette.
So many helpful tips! Thank you!
Looks amazing nice work! Love the playing card tip 🤟
I wish I had seen this video 4 months ago! I built a bench for my mom’s house & I made it much more complicated. 😢 This looks great!

Thanks! I should have done a before and after clip. Maybe I'll switch up the thumbnail to show both versions. Thank you for your comment brother! 🙏🏾
So much better!!! Love it

Bon Appetit 😂
Also, using the electric carving knife for foam cushion shaping is a sign of genius.
Loving the content, keep it coming.
😂😂 Thanks man! Yeah the weird tips and tricks usually are the ones that save us the headaches lol
Excellent work. Enjoyed the fork😂 method.
😂😂 it's safe to say I have mastered the fork method
Thanks!!
Wonderfully thorough video! Thank you so much!
This is such a great build and even better video. Great job to both of you!
Thank you brother! I really appreciate the support 🙏🏾
Good content man. cheers!! Love it when you shown not always things gone smoothly!
Subbed and rewatched
@@therewdy4038 let’s goooo!

Yours is definitely the one I want to achieve out of the others I've watched today!
Looks amazing! Do you have a video on how you made your drawer fronts? Thank you!! It looks so good!
Thanks for the content! Anyone know if that back is 1/2" plywood? Would 1/2" plywood work?

@@marymacfarlane4275 I’ll make a video on this
Love it! I am having a hard time finding the cushion. Can you please send link? Thanks!!!
Message me on ig and I'll send it there. Don't think I can send links here. Search 2" memory foam on Amazon
Great work - I’m doing something similar and wondering if the plywood for the top of the bench that gets upholstered was cut flush with the front or did you overhang it a little?
Did you cut the foam/plywood to slightly overhang the bench in the front?
Great job! Did you ever end up sketching it for those who'd like to replicate your project? If you could post just an image here, that would be great.
