    Smile Workbench- WOW

    Wow Terry, that is awesome. What did you finish the bench top with? The middle drawers look like they have a special function- care to elaborate a little? This is truly inspirational. Great job. How's the trial run on ass'y/production going?

    Bruce,

    The drawers are just drawers. I cut the fronts from a grain matched glue up so they would look right. Other side is just 4 doors. I love it. Don't know what I did without it. Having a really big and flat surface to work on is wonderful , and the storage is great.

    Finish is cherry stain followed by dark walnut stain and 3 coats of plain old poly.

    Cyclones are progressing nicely. Thanks for asking. The test group guy's are getting theirs together and ironing out a couple of remining bugs. I hope to have my cyclone up and running next weekend.

    Thanks,

    Terry

    Smile Great workbench!

    That is a great looking woorkbench! I have been meaning to too make one myself. Did you design your own or build it from a plan?
    What size is the top? Looks like it would make a great work surface.

    Sparky,

    Some of both!!!

    Basically my own design using the Woodsmith bench and the Workbench book for ideas. It is kind of inbetween the shaker bench in the Workbench book and the Woodsmith bench. The top is 42"X99". All white oak. M and T construction. 3 layers of mdf with 1/4" white oak ply for top.

    Thanks,

    Terry

    I'll post more pics when I can get them to work!!

    Terry,

    Does it still look as pristine as when I saw it in October? Surely not. Bet that first one hurt, huh?
