Well....my standard in taking photo's has presented it's self again.....and that is poor quailty. I don't like tooting my own horn...but this thing came together just as I had hope it would. The bench is not very big....about 6 foot long by 23 inchs deep. It stands about belly button high. I used cherry and quilted mapke for the top and hard maple and quilted maple for the carcass and dawer fronts. The drawer sides are built of qtr sawn curly sassfrass. I have not organized the drawers at this point...but I will.
The frame is full mortise and tenon with pocket holes(hand cut...) for some points of the drawer runners. I have only applied one coat of danish oil and I will apply another two or three. At the left side I installed a "holder" for hand tool work.....smoothing and things of that nature. I have never really needed a big vise so I used this little Groz that I have had laying around. Thanks for looking.
Oh...as for the date in the pix....I could never get that to change(cheap camera).

Real nice work. I envy you guys who have nice hardwoods like that available at a price where they can be used for shop projects.
