DIY Simple Cedar Bench

I made this cedar bench merely because I had a design idea in mind and bought some cedar decking on clearance. I wanted to make an ultra simplistic but good looking and sturdy bench. At a minimum, all this bench takes to build is a miter saw and drill (or a drill and driver combo). I used a brad nailer to help hold pieces in place, square, before adding screws. That isn't required, just super helpful.
