Roubo suggestions?

[Chris Friesen]

Chris--do you have a photo of your bench?

I didn't, but do now. Here's the back side, showing the stretchers and overhang:



and here's from the front corner...not a lot of room to take the picture here:



here is a shot of the underside, showing the end trestle assemblies, the vise mounting blocks, and the rub strips for the vise screws.



Some of the boards are black on the bottom...the top was made of strips salvaged from a bowling alley. I wanted to keep as much thickness as possible, so the bottom wasn't dressed totally flat.

Thanks, Chris. I think yours is closer to what I had in mind.
