My project today

Today I built this new potting bench for my mother-in-law (the one in
red in the picture). Ben assisted me, and I think we did a pretty
terrif job in just a few hours (okay, maybe four hours). This was
built completely from scrap wood that we had laying around the house.
It has a 27 x 54 inch top surface made from 1 inch plywood, and four 4
x 4 legs. It is plenty strong enough to hold the two boys, as you can
tell. All without a trip to Home Depot or Lowes.
