    Looks, great AJ. That's the same design/magazine I used. But, seems like mine has an extra shelf about halfway up (can't remember-that's how long its been since I've been in the shop , and, there's about a foot of snow on the ground between the house and shop--means I'm not going out to check). I liked it because of the mortise. It was pretty easy and looks pretty good. But, mine doesn't look near as good as yours.

      Gimpy, you're right. The design called for an additional shelf, but I thought I would try my hand an making a tool chest, or some kind of drawer based storage in that area. Also, another reason why I didn't do the shelf: I ran out of wood! The last piece I had was a few inches short.

        Man I hate when they come from the factory that way.

              That looks solid; you'll get a lot of use out of that bench.
