    Beautiful bench and awesome detail on your journey. I see you're in Rochester as well, where about?

    Hiya Dean, yes, I'm still around the Creek, but less so in summertime. I was surprised to see this thread revived after so long!

    I used the plans in the Christopher Schwarz book:

    There were some minor dimensional modifications needed to fit the benchcrafted hardware: The wagon vise end has a longer overhang and the stretchers are either higher or lower to make room for the leg vise (I can't remember which).

    Thanks for the kind comments.

    Thanks Ian, yes it took a long time for sure. Speed is not really my thing I guess. I appreciate the kind words.
