My Workbench

November 3rd, 2007 · 7 Comments

IMG_5454.jpgMy shop workbench was by far my most ambitious shop project. It is a real beauty of a bench, and incredibly useful - I don’t know how I ever managed without it! Take a look at my Workbench page for details about the bench and how I built it.

    Monty,

    Awsome article. Silly question, how do I print the My Workbench

    Great question! I just figured out how to add a print link (I’m still learning this new web site software).

    Go back to the Workbench article (click the link above). Up at the top of the page (actually on all my articles now) you will see a link for the “Printer-friendly” version of the page. This puts all the text & photos in one long document instead of split across multiple pages. Hopefully that will work for you. Thanks for the feedback.

    Monty,

    I have the Veritas dogs. Where did you get the cool looking holddowns.

    They are the Gramercy Tools holdfasts, which I picked up from ToolsForWorkingWood.com.

    I can not beleive the price. I was thinking $40+ each. Really cool.

    I have finshed the bench!!!!! Come by and see it when you are in Mountain View. It is a close replica of yours except the craftmanship is not quote as good.

    I am adding a tool caddy that slides down the tool tray. Will post on NCwoodworker.net when finshed.

    Congratulations, Travis! I look forward to seeing your completed work — I know you’ll enjoy it.
