Strong,Lightweight Bench
You can make a strong, lightweight bench for pennies using plastic 5-gal. pails. I've made them up to 5 ft. long and 12 in. wide. Just run a piece of 1/2-in. plywood across the top of the pails and put two round ply-wood discs inside the pails. Screw the top sheet in place through the top of the pails. Then run another sheet across the top, and then glue and screw it down. (Bert Ternes, 2732 Valey View Ave., Bismarck, N.Dak. 58501 ph 701 223-1219)
