Great progress pics. Thanks for taking the time to take us all along.

Nice work, Andrew. Your saw horses are so stout, I can hear you explaining to your buddies that "this is my Roubo bench and these are my Clydesdale horses".

It would be fun to mark the spot from which you took that picture showing the bench from a distance with "lots of room in the unfinished basement" and then take a picture every once in a while. Over the years, the time lapse transition might get interesting.

I'm loving this build. As you may have seen, I am also preparing for a "Roubo-ish" build. Ordering my ash this week which means a few weeks to get here and a couple of months to acclimate. Local mahogany for the base and leg vise. Rereading Christopher Schwarz's books for final inspiration.

I'm getting inspired to build the bench I need to build my bench, and get my bandsaw fixed.
