DIY X-Brace Bench

A farmhouse-style X-brace bench built from dimensional lumber with pocket-hole joinery, suitable for indoor or outdoor use, with a paid printable PDF containing the cut list and diagrams.

This X-brace bench is a farmhouse classic built from one 2×8, two 2×4s, and a 1×4 — under $20 per bench in lumber. Pocket-hole joinery, beginner friendly, and it works just as well at a dining table or the foot of a bed as it does on a patio.
