Here’s a great redneck bench design that’s so simple we’re surprised we haven’t seen more of them.
The whole thing will cost you $500 or less depending on which junk yard you go to. First you’ll need to locate the tailgate of your choice and then you’ll need the following:
- 2- 2 1/2″ X 8″ stove bolts
- 2- 20″ X 1 1/2″ angle iron
- 1- 6′ X 1 1/2″ angle iron
- 1- 6′ X 1/8″ pipe or 1/2″ rebar
- 2- medium snap rings
- 4- 1/2″ flat washers
- 1- 1 1/2″ X 1/4-20 allen head bolt
The tail lights were added later and fitted inside a piece of painted wood. Take a look at the finished product below, then see how it’s made.
