The Bench was built on sunday because I got bored...Its not the prettiest but its made out of an old heabboard from an IKEA bed and some scrap from building my brothers swingset...it took about 2-3 hours with some power tools... the skateboard is screwed into there for two reasons 1 to keep the two legs from bowing out and 2 because I thought it would be cool to incorperate a other boar sports. skateboard footstoll to come...

there are a few cracks and chips but Everything is two boards thick so the cracks dont effect much of the strutural integeraty I had my mom (140 lbs.) my dad (200 lbs. ) And I (120 lbs.) on the bench and it didnt crack or wiggle at all...

enjoy
-Erik

Nice dude. It looks super tall, im thinking it just the angle though. It looks like it's in need of some paint?

If your bored, go check out mine, its floating around somewhere in here.

vawakemonster,I like the part that you did on top of your desk for a wakeboard. If my wakeskate is to small to fit on my shelf i have made, I might have to do something like that on the top. I don't know why I made the shelf for two boards either.

Here's my shelf right now with out my wakeskate.

The shelf acctually does fit my skate (board is a 140 and skate is a 41). If anybody needs plans to make this and I might be able to rethink how it was done.
