You can make it from wood, stone or cinderblocks. The main consideration when choosing a material for a bench is the type of seating you want, and the size of the seat.

Next, drill pilot holes for the pilot holes and attach the two pieces of lumber together. The backrest and slats can be attached to the supports. You will need 2 1/2" screws to complete the task.

Measure the back and the front to construct the bench frame. The length and width of your planks should be measured. Next, use the 2-x to mark the centre of the frame. Align the arms and legs according to your measurements. Once you've cut the legs and arms to the correct length, attach the arms. Attach the arms to the back legs. The front should have a 3/4 inch gap. Once you've assembled the frame, add a finishing coat and any decorative elements you want to give the bench.

After you have attached the back leg, attach the legs and arms to the back. Attach the arms to both the front and back legs.
