I'd love to make this for my craftroom but you have it soooo simple that there's no way to know what to use to make this.
The last time I did this we only sold half the benches and ended up storing the other 6 for the winter in an unheated shop. Excluding vises, it costs about $100 in material so even a disastrous re-do won't leave you on the street!
