How deep should a storage bench be?
15-20 inches
Benches can have a depth anywhere from 15-20 inches (38-51 cm), although the typical bench used for dining is considered to be around 17 Β½ inches (44 cm).
A depth (or width) past 20 inches (51 cm) will not be as comfortable for the average person to sit on.
In addition, the average seat height for a storage bench is 18β. The same as the average height for a dining chair.
This height allows for a comfortable seating for most people with or without a table present.

G0623X Sliding Table Saw
I just got the confirmation email that my new saw, a 10 ft slider, is on the ocean and will be here in May.
With that news Iβm starting the process of getting my Small shop ready for this BIG saw.
This saw has been the centerpiece of production in my shop for years and the o Ly reason id ever sell it would be to replace it with a bigger saw. I hitch I am doing. So, Iβll need to sell my 5hp G0623X Grizzly slider saw.
It is in excellent shape. I keep it dialed in by using the 5 cut method to make sure the miter sled arm is squared up.
The saw will come with EVERYTHING intact, multiple Tenryu aluminum alloy gold medal blades, new scoring blade installed and a custom cart that allows for the cart to be used in a stationary position and to be rolled around by one person.
Youβll find the specs for the saw listed in the link below.
The one sticky part will be that Iβll need to keep the saw until a couple days after receiving my new saw in May. So, coordination will be key.
Why am I posting this a couple months out? Because if someone wants it and has to travel, a Headβs up is a kind courtesy π Also, for anyone that wants a demo of the saw there is time for that before committing πππ½
The slide action and scoring blade are major contributors to the clean cross cuts im able to get.
Happy to answer questions. Please ask them in this post so others can see the answer.
I will post asking price when I put this saw up for sale in April.

New Tool Tuesday!!!
As a one man shop there is a paramount need to keep every asset working as best as possible π
Hhmmmβ¦
What do I mean by βAssetsβ?
Well, money of course ππ but things like TIME, ENERGY, CONCENTRATION & FOCUS are all assets.
There is a finite amount available per day π
Having run out of each of those on various days Iβve become acutely aware of the value behind finding solutions that help to reduce spending each asset until itβs depleted π
Iβve found a great solution to help me lift and lower very large and very heavy items ππ½πππ½
Grizzly Industrial, Inc. Delivered to me their Bear Pallet Stacker!!!
Iβve already spent time testing the height, weight and maneuvering capabilities and am a true believer ππ½πππ½
Now all I need is 4 more hours in the day and all is good ππ€£

You only get one chance to make a perfect cut!
Andβ¦ 4 for 4 must be a testament to a precise steady hand π
The hardware involved is quite specific and needs very accurate assembly and adjustment to make sure the seams are secure and clean when open and closed.
Fold down leaves require some really specific tools and application of effort.
