STEP 25
- Position the side bench by placing the one end
on the bench support you installed in step 24. With one
person holding the bench, position the other end so that
it is level with the rear upper bench. Using 5x70 screws,
attach the side bench to the rear bench from the bottom
side. Next, using 4x60 screws fasten the rear of the side
bench to the wall element sections from below the bench.
STEP 26
- Measure 10” above the rear
and side upper benches and make a pencil
mark. Place one of the upper bench back
supports (3-slats on each back support)
above each bench and be sure it is level.
Then, using
3.5x40 screws
attach the back
support to the
wall element
sections. Position
your screws
in the vertical
battens between
the slats so that
the screws are
concealed.
STEP 27
- Position the lower back support
(4-slats) above the lower bench and against
the vertical supports you installed in step 21.
Holding the lower bench support tight to the
top bench, attach to the vertical supports using
3.5x40 screws.
