Looks good. You might want to chamfer the edges of the 4x4 bottoms. So
if you drag the bench you won't splinter the outer edge. Just a little,
not a lot.. it doesn't take much to protect it.
A block plane can do the job, just back it up with another piece of
wood, or plane to the center.. (a little more difficult)

Bill I agree with everyone else. The legs are too close together.
I also believe that your stretcher underneath needs to come out on the
side toward your work side. Since you have indicated you are using ply
for the top, your support should go close to the edge, but allow
yourself some clamp space. This will support your work better at the
edge if you wish to hammer a nail into something.


I posted 3 pics of the virtually-finished result, in case anyone would
like to see them. It's basically Swingman's design stretched to
58"L x27"W x 40"H. The height feels like it was made for me! : )
