My daughter saw these benches at a flea market and she wants me to build one for her:
The bench she wants will be 5' long. The problem I foresee is that she rents the first floor of an older home (1940) and the wide plank floors aren't level/flat.
Am I nuts to be wondering if there is a way to build the bench so the overall look is maintained and the bench is sturdy enough to hold 2-3 adults, but has just enough flex to not rock if the floor has a dip or sag?
Maybe with 2-3 adults it will flex on it's own even if fully glued and bolted, but what if only one person is sitting on it?
Am I, as usual, overthinking a simple project?
