Great job on the bench.. I bet it will get a lot of use.

[Mike Heidrick]

BEAUTIFUL. Looks outstanding!!

Oak?
Finish?

Any design plans or was it pure home built?

Any Rough Costs and materials lists so that people have an idea of what goes into a project like this?

[Pat Germain]

Wow, that workbench is quite the dreadnought, Dan! You could enclose the lower section and use it as a tornado shelter. Very nice work.

[John Michaels]

Very Nice!! I'd be afraid to get any glue or scratches on it

Wow, I love it! That's pretty much exactly what I'm interested in.

I have to add a "me too" to Mike's questions. I'd love to build one of these for myself.

Awesome bench! Well done.

[Carl Fox]

That's nicer than the furniture in my house!

[Eric Sayre]

Very nice! That's the best looking tool in your shop!

Some day I'll build my own. I hope it turns out half as good.

[Bill Wyko]

Nice job. I disagree with Sean. That's begging to be used for generations to come. Beautiful craftsmanship.

[Henk Marais]

Please dont get me wrong, that is one of the most beutifull benches I have ever seen. But I would turn new handles for the vices out of the same wood (Oak?). I will just add the detail that will realy stand out.

[George Sanders]

Outstanding craftsmanship. That bench should serve well for generations.

[Toney Robertson]

Outstanding bench.

Someday I MIGHT take the time and do something like that. Nah, I probably won't.

As an aside, you have one clean and orderly shop. Mine is NEVER that clean and there is ALWAYS stuff (tools, 1/2 finished projects, etc.) laying on any flat surface.

Maybe I am just a slob.

Good job.

Extremely nice!! Functionality and style all in one package. You will feel better about using it if you will go out to your shop and immediately pound on it with a hammer and throw a couple of cups of various dyes and stains on it! Kind of like owning a new car. After the first scratch, it becomes "familiar."

And, what's with all the containers and everything being in its place?? You can get help for yourself! You are among friends. It is OK to have some shavings on the floor and a few tools laying around?
