Replacement Bench Seat Top



A few years ago, we had a cement bench seat top break. We've had the cement legs in the garage for a couple of years now.

We decided to put create a new bench seat top out of wood. Watch the video to see how it's done.

Materials
Three 3' Long Pressure Treated 4X4"
Two 3' Long Pressure Treated 2X4"
Four 1' Long Pressure Treated 1X1" (I add a 30 degree angle cut to the ends)

1. Take the 3' length of three 4X4's and the two 2X4's. Lay them down on a flat surface and alternate them.
2. Put a 1/2 inch gap between each piece.
3. Measure 6" from the sides and place one of the one foot 1X1's on each side. Screw them into each of the top pieces.
4. Now that the bench top is secured. Take the concrete legs and place them next to the 1X1's screwed down.
5. Take 2 more 1X1's and screw into the opposite side of the concrete legs for a snug fit.

Place the concrete legs in place and fit the bench seat top on it.
