How to Build a Wooden Bench for Baseball Dugouts
- 1). Lay the 12-foot wooden plank on its side. Set one of the smaller planks on one of the ends of the longer plank to form a 90-degree angle (it will look like an L). Use the screwdriver to drill in one of the screws, going in from the top of the longer plank. Screw in two to three more screws.
- 2). Use one of the other smaller planks and attach it to the opposite end in the same manner as the previous one. Measure and mark the middle of the long plank. Screw in one of the 34-inch planks, going from the top as with the other planks, two inches to the right of the middle line.
- 3). Screw in the final plank two inches from the left of the center line. You should now have a very basic bench. Sand any rough edges and apply a coat of varnish or moisture sealant to the bench to prolong its life and protect it from the elements.
