I did it!
This was very easy to build and beautiful! I did have to have my husband help hold the ends up and the materials were $75. I can't figure out how to post a pic from my phone, the insert photo icon won't pull up my library.

Awesome.
Cost me a bit more. I think wood at Homedepot cost more in the south. With screws and Paint I spent about $150 total and about 12 hours total after sanding and a few coats of stain. But these are so awesome and I LOVE them!!!

Getting started
I am using palettes to complete this project. I have enough scrap wood around to complete. Thanks for sharing your plans.

Additional leg braces
Can you show or link to another plan for the leg braces you added to one bench? I'd love to make these but think I'd need the additional support.

Adding Umbrella
I have built several of these now. SO easy and great plans. I drilled a hole in the center of the top so a Umbrella can be placed into the center of the top.

I made it all by myself with some help to stand it up to assemble. I added sides to the top to keep items from falling off. Still have to stain it but ready for s’mores
