Plywood & Maple Bench

Sturdy bench with floating seat. Multiple strips of plywood for base. 8/4 Maple glue up for seat. Developing crack called for butterfly key, added a matching one for balance. 4 coats Sam Maloof poly/oil topped with 2 coats Sam Maloof oil/wax finish.

This is really unique. I really like the look of the end “grain” of the plywood, it almost has a similar look to bamboo.

Very interesting design. 
Are the "dots" we see on the sides actually round through-dowels, or just for decorative purposes?
cool design and very creative use of plywood !
