Here are some pics of my first "Bandsaw Bench". As you can see in the first pic my feet are hardly touching the ground so I had to take a nip off the legs.

After building the bench I thought it would be nice to have a place to set my glass of water so I had to build a nice little crotch table as well.

It is nice to have seating around the mill so the visitors don't get tired while talking to you.LOL.

I really like that bench & the jig for the legs is kewl! I really like the shape of those legs ;D
Thanks. I don't think they look very rustic but I got the idea in my head and had to try it. Once you get the jig set up and cleated off it doesn't take to long to saw them out. I think I might try squaring up the edges on a slab and go for the "contemporary" look to match the legs. Maybe a backrest that matches the angle of the legs??? I get a lot of critical visitors so I won't be long finding out what they like and don't like.
