Instructions
  1. Multitasking Bench, Goal & Carrier - Step 1 Following the diagram, measure and cut the boards, drill 1/8-inch pilot holes, and assemble the bench. (Note: The corner holes on top should be at least 3 inches from the end so they don't overlap the side-rail screws.) Using the 1/2-inch bit, drill a hole about 2 inches from the bottom of each leg for the carrying rope.
