Because each set is handmade, slight measurement variations may occur.
Bracing Recommendation (Important)
Due to the height of these bench legs, we strongly recommend adding bracing, as shown in the finished bench photos.
We recommend:
One brace directly under the bench top
One brace near the bottom of the legs
Optional Bracing Available
We offer pre-cut bracing options:
37" long for a 4 ft bench
49" long for a 5 ft bench
Braces come pre-drilled, and screws are included, allowing you to position the bracing exactly where your build requires.
You may also choose to create your own bracing if preferred.
What You’ll Receive:
One pair (2) of solid wood bench legs
(Bench top not included)
These legs are designed for easy DIY installation using standard 2.5" wood screws through the top brace into your bench seat. Additional cross bracing or L-brackets may be added for extra rigidity but are optional.
Finish Options:
Unfinished - Ready for stain, paint, or sealant
Stained - Choose from available stain colors (leave your selection in personalization or send us a message)
All stained legs are sealed with a water-based polyurethane for durability.
Materials & Craftsmanship:
Made from real pine, spruce, and fir, selected for strength and natural character. Expect visible knots, grain variation, and minor imperfections—these are signs of genuine handcrafted wood furniture. Each set is glued, nailed, and screwed for long-lasting durability.
Perfect For:
Farmhouse or modern DIY furniture
Dining or kitchen benches
Entryway or mudroom seating
Rustic or modern farmhouse decor
Custom furniture builds or replacements
