The second row of most sedans is usually a bench, unless a console is installed in a luxury model such as the Chrysler Pacifica , as is the third row of most SUVs and minivans, which may be forward, or rear facing. The front bench typically allowed three people to sit abreast, or six passengers to car, nearly the same passenger load as a three row SUV or minivan, though with less comfort. The bucket seat arrangement leaves a space between the two front seats, usually occupied by a shifter and hand brake. Originally, bucket seats were associated with imported cars in the 1950s and 1960s. The Volkswagen Bus was originally available with three rows of bench seats seating up to nine passengers, but since then most minivans have been configured to seat seven or eight with front bucket seats. Even in the United States, the bucket seat has largely replaced the benchseat the bucket is viewed as sportier , and smaller cars have made the middle position less viable. For high performance cars, bucket seats help keep the driver in place during high accelerations. Some larger cars are still available with bench seats, as are some truck s, which would only be able to seat two if bucket seats were fitted, alongside their availability in crew cab models since the work crew sometimes carpools to compensate for the mediocre fuel economy of work trucks.

Note also the steel dog that is integral to the metal vice. Image benchdog.jpg thumb 300px right A benchdog in use. Notice that the dog can be lowered below the edge of the part being worked to keep clear of the cutting action. A bench dog is an accessory used on a woodworking workbench to allow clamping of wooden items whilst being worked. At its most basic a bench dog is simply a peg which is installed in a corresponding dog hole in the top of a bench. The holes are arranged in a line perpendicular to the vise vice , perhaps three or four inches apart but certainly no further apart than the fully open distance between the vice s jaws. There is a matching bench dog in the vice so that the woodworking woodworker can place a bench dog into a suitable dog hole and clamp a piece of timber between the bench dog in the bench and the bench dog in the vice. It is normal to have two rows of holes, with pairs of holes parallel to the vice so that one has four clamping points. Benches that have a tail vice and a face vice might have two sets of bench dog holes so that it is possible to clamp in this way from either vice. Bench dogs may be square or round. Round dog holes are easier to make as they are simply drilled into the bench using a suitably sized drill bit bit . However round dogs do not provide the best gripping surface.

Expert subject Education date November 2008 A friendship bench is a special place in a school playground where a child can go when they want someone to talk to. Friendship benches may be distinctively different from other seating in the school and may be specially designed by an artist or with the help of the children themselves. Such benches are situated in open and well travelled areas of the school so that any child using the bench will be noticed quickly. When a child feels the need for a friend to talk to, he or she can show this by using the friendship bench. Other children and staff will recognise this as a sign that some help, support or comfort is needed and will come to talk with the child. The friendship bench is a means by which a child can seek support without the need to rationalise their feelings or to seek out a particular member of staff or special friend. Because the bench is in the day to day environment of the school it can be used at any time and for any reason from seemingly trivial matters to more serious concerns and encourages children to ask for help when they are troubled.

The same furniture is often also used to display potted plants, even indoors. Image Potting bench county clerk.jpg 200px right Since this type of furniture is often exposed to soil, water, and sunlight, it must be made from weather resistant materials if it is not to decay rapidly. Cedar wood is a popular choice. Plastic potting benches are cheaper and, for those who can afford it, there is teak . Metal construction may be considered if corrosion can be controlled. Some potting benches are small and portable others are fixed into the side of a greenhouse . As they are often custom built by the individual gardener, there is considerable variation in style. Some designs include a dry sink for soil storage, a water or drain hookup, and or a cold frame . Plans are widely available for do it yourself construction.
