Help! I would like to build a removable storage bench to fit inside the opening of my bay window in my dining room.
My measurements as follows: The center window wall is 44 inches, sides slant out 28 1/2 inches with the front side being 84 1/2 inches, height is 21 inches.
I would like for the bench top to open up for storage and the wood to be finished land to look store bought or professionally done. I would also like to have some type of decorative front to make it look good in my formal dining room with mahogany woodwork.
Please help as soon as possible!

Have you looked into using kitchen cabinets for the window seat?
