This is the bench that I made from the side of the Expedit bookshelf.
Nothing in the pile of Ikea parts fit the bill for the legs, so I made them from scrap 2x4 and 1x4 glued together then ripped on the tablesaw to 2x2. The rails of the apron were pulled from the pile of parts. Again, I used the Kreg jig to use pocket screws for attaching the legs to the apron.
The piece I used for the top was actually the side of the expedit shelf. The sides don't have any holes drilled on the outside face, so I used this as the top. The side facing down, as well as the ends, all have pre-drilled holes for attaching things. I will probably fill in the end holes and make them match.
