Yes I built the bench early in the new year and have been using it ever since. It has held up well so far. I have a few dents, small but they are their and a few cut marks from a knife which with a little bit of scraping/sanding would be gone. As it is really only about 6 months old it hasn’t had a good work out so only time will tell. For the cost of the wood for the top (free) I am very happy with it, but if I am to do another one or need to replace the top I will definitely look into a harder wood. Ken. Hey Mark.
