MEDITATION BENCH/STOOL

This is my recent favorite furniture-grade bench. 

You can see it has a slight slant to the front for comfort. 
This one is the second from the right in the line below.
The markings are the grade-stamp from the lumber.

I build them in slightly varying widths, lengths, and slopes.
The three on the left are just as strong, but don't have the
furniture-grade hardwood veneer plywood for slick looks.

This is the first one I ever built, probably in the late 1970's.  I still use it.

You can see that it's been well used!

The design works so well, I haven't changed it at all.
