Client ordered a pine bench with doors. This piece is more decorative than functional. Built to hide the exposed lower portion of the back of a couch that has a recliner in each end. The back of the couch has two gaps that she wanted to hide. The bench is 48” long and 18” high and the seat is 9” deep. Doors are faux raised panels with a routed groove. Sanded to 180 with drum sander, then 180 with random orbit sander. Stained with the stain mixed for the wormy chestnut dinning room table I made. and finished with three coats of satin poly.
