Very nice indeed. I don't think I've ever seen maple with a contrasting heartwood.

Thanks, guys! Home depot maple 1x6, got lucky, I guess! There's some birdseye figuring on the middle piece, too. I also really liked the top poplar piece with the contrasting heartwood, but that gets kind of lost in the photos, and I had to cut more than I was happy with off of it.

That bench is awesome! I'd love one for a mudroom. I'd love a mudroom too. ![smile smile](/boards/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif)

Yeah, I don't have a mudroom either... that's why it's actually finished and not painted. Plus I just hate painting wood, if I can get away with showing the grain (unlike on the chicken coop).

What's wrong with the grain on your chicken coop?

Soooper low quality wood and plywood siding, and there's no way I'm sanding all of that. I'll post some pictures of it later.
