Classic Shaker Bench Plan

Description

Classic Shaker Bench Plan

This 6-ft.-long Shaker settee has a clean, elegant silhouette enhanced by its dramatic ebony finish. It has six turned legs and three stretchers, instead of the usual four and two. To improve on the classicShaker design, Christian Becksvoort beefed up the leg-to-seat joint using stepped tenons, which eliminates the possibility of breakage at the shoulder. The seat is shaped with a tablesaw, router, and hand tools.
