Almost finished with the bench. Thought I had enough carpet but I’m about 4" short so that’ll be a future project…along with adding a couple LEDs to the interior of the box
I didn’t glue the dividers. The outer box is plenty strong after gluing with PVC primer/cement and screwing for extra strength.
The lids are removable and can be opened from outside or inside the bed.
Total weight is 27lbs. The bench is open on the bottom and not anchored in. It’s wedged in pretty tight and with the open bottom I don’t expect it to move.
