The Time Life book on Shaker furniture has a bench plan.  You might also
look in Thos. Moser's 'Building Shaker Furniture" book.  The book by Jim
Shea is also good.

Also check out the Shaker measured shop drawings books (at least 4
volumes) by Enjer Handberg.  The books have B&W sketches and major
dimensions with detailed inset sketches.  These are supposed to be taken
directly from Shaker furniture from various museums and private
collections.  I purchase them at the Hancock Shaker Village gift shop in
Hancock, Mass., 413-443-0188.
