Benches & More, Creations by Scott Felten Creating Benches from beds & repurposing your furniture pieces. Furniture Refinishing & Restoration Located in Kaukauna WI. bought a bed at a thrift store.

It all started when I needed some bed rails for my grandsons bed. I asked my wife what do I do with the head and foot board? She showed me a picture of a converted bed to bench. Well the rest is history. Since then have made more benches and even converted dressers to benches. A friend wanted a small table for behind the couch so I made that too. Love making things and seeing what or how an item can be re-purposed. Always creating new projects.

Building a cool set piece. This is for the Attic show coming up "Rounding Third" in a black box theatre. One side is a bar, then flip the bar around to reveal a van, and the van opens so the cast can sit in the back. Pretty happy with how this turned out. This is 5 ft long and 43" tall.

This will be the last time working on the 100yr old house. Owner had a water problem, so I had to take out half the flooring and baseboard that I installed. Then a company installed a sump pump changing the plumbing in this area. So I had to rebuild an end tub cabinet for access to the sump pump then reinstall the flooring with a slight modification. There was no more light brown paint so I just painted some areas the white primer and reused the brown pieces.
