This solid wood bench base pair is meant for benches up to 7ft long. 

These bench legs are unfinished and are shown without a stretcher, the piece that connects the legs under the benchtop.

Each pair of 16" height bench kit consists of (without stretcher):

- 2 arms - 12" deep
- 2 feet - 12" deep x 6.25" wide
- 2 uprights - 6.5" wide at the widest point.
- hardware to connect components together
- hardware to connect the base to top
- full base needs a stretcher to be a complete table base (DIY or purchase - see below for sizes)

**If ordered without a stretcher, no notches are cut into the bottom of the feet. We leave attaching the stretcher to feet up to you.

Your benchtop should be 6-12" longer than the base to allow for a small overhang of the benchtop over the legs

Although the above product options are offered, its recommended to keep the stretcher length limited to 60" or less, especially for thinner bench tops.


NOTE TO THOSE MATCHING THE BENCH TO A TABLE BASE
If you are matching the bench base to a Fractal Designs Inc table base, do not select the same bench base overall length as the table base length. The bench is supposed to tuck under the table, and this cannot happen when the bench base length is the same length as the table base because the feet will block each other. You need to select a bench size at least 12" bigger than the table base, because the bench feet are 5" wide, plus 1" of space in between table and bench feet is 12". This way, the bench legs will fit on the outside of the table legs when tucked under the table and will give 1" gap between the insides of the bench feed and the outsides of the table base to allow the base to be tucked in. To match the table base to the bench, use the table below:
TABLE BASE LENGTH/BENCH BASE LENGTH:
36" / 48"
42" / 54"
48" / 60"
60" / 72"

As wood is a natural product, knots, imperfections, gouges, and cracks may occur in the product. We fix any major gouges with epoxy or wood filler and sand, but there can be imperfections in the wood, including knots and cracks that do not impact structural integrity.

The legs come disassembled, and some minor assembly is required. Comes with lag bolts to connect feet and arms top upright, as well as directions.
