This storage bench would be a great addition to any room. Whether it’s an entryway, bedroom, or living room, extra storage and seating it always welcomed. The the half lap box joints not only provide a stronger joint but they add a touch of style as well. One thing you might not pick up on just looking at this bench is that the seat is actually mounted on drawer slides to smoothly slide the seat out of the way, gaining access to more storage beneath. But this bench wont break the bank either, you can build your own for somewhere between $50 and $100, depending on the quality of foam, fabric and drawer slides. To get the full plans and build details make sure you head on over to Ryobi Nation.
