Two legs are connected by a bar and it will serve as the basis for the bench.
Step three: levers
The levers also serve as the basis for the back and seat. Each element (backrest, seat) requires two levers + two stops.
First, the master makes the levers for the back. At one end of the levers, you need to make a hole through which they will be attached to the bar.
Then makes levers for the seat.
Drills holes in the stops and the bar to adjust the slope.
Step four: assembly
Now you need to assemble the bench. Holes for adjusting the tilt must be drilled after setting the back or seat to a certain angle.

Lying on a bare bench is not very comfortable. The master upholsters the seat and back with eco leather, and uses a soft foam mat as a lining.
Everything is ready, and thanks to the master for shared my homemade product .
