I have the plan for one in a book called "Trash to Treasure" Do you happen to have that on your bookself?
I could look it up for you when I get home today..Seems it just took a few "L" brackets and a little wood for the seat.

I Talked to my DH and he pulled the book off the shelf for me: He says there is no author but it says " Trash to Treasure-A Leisure Arts Publication" He says the ISBN # 1-57486-215-4.
I will check when I get home-If not too complicated....I can type up the instructions and send to you tomorrow...

Don't bother if its too long, can you scan them? If not, let me know the full name and issue and I'll see if I can find the plans on the internet? I"ve looked some with little finds but then again I didn't have all the info. Thanks for trying!

Your welcome~~Glad you got it... It appears the plan is for a twin headboard and foot...so I guess the bench would just be smaller if we use the cribs . Makes me want to look for an old bed now~~Maybe make one settee for me ... and another smaller one for the grandkids....Hummmmmm.
