Built the "midweight" bench out of used 2x12 I had salvaged. The bench really is rock solid. Thank you Thomas.
These plans are awesome and the design is exactly what I was looking for!
perfect size easy to follow plans
These plans were great. The video was a wonderful addition and definitely answered some questions and gave context to the different steps. I highly recommend you watch it before you start AND revisit as you go long
