Makes a great bench and table combo
Easy to follow instructions. Just add 9 ea. 2*4's. We made ours from 6' PT lumber. Two benches can be converted to a picnic table for added space when needed. I would not make this any longer than 6' even though the instructions indicate you can. Much beyond 6' you'd get a bow when average weight people sit. Even at 6' we had to add a stabilizer on the underside of the seat portion to give added strength to the 2*4's. One other caveat - be careful where your hands are located when lifting this. We assembled it on a table and then had to lift it to the ground. In the "bench" position the back does not lock and can easily flip up and pinch fingers - as we now know from experience. It is however a nice project and gives versatility when entertaining. I'd have rated it a "5" if the back locked in place.More detail ...
