Quick Bench Hook From Scraps

Building a bench hook is a simple and fast task, but it quite worth it when you need to saw small sticks with a back saw.

This one is made from a small piece of pine, which is screwed to a small scarp of 6mm plywood.

Cutting the Cross Members

Cut the crossmembers to lenght making them fit in width of the plywood.

Screw the cross members on each side of the plywood with a distance of approximately 20 cm.

Make sure that the screws are counter sunk - can be done by drivnig the screws a bit hard - to make sure the work pieces are not scratched by accident.

Potentially take a bit of sand paper and remove the burs where the screws went in.
