I needed a new bench as Id outgrown my old makeshift one.

However after looking at the pre-made offerings I was left gobsmacked at how flimsy and inadequate they looked ( not to mention overpriced! ) if I was spending £800+ then I'd get something substantial but call me tight if you will, but there was no chance of me spending that much on one.

So.. After a quick trip to B&Q here's my own creation and I'm rather pleased with it. Rough around the edges and not perfect but built like a tank which is exactly what I wanted. 4ft wide and plenty deep. Will be putting the finishing touches to it tomorrow.

4hrs work and £65. Result!
