I painted my car's trunk white so the wood samples would show up

I painted my car’s trunk white so my walnut samples would show up better, but, alas, its the camera (not the operator) that is inefficient. Sorry, I havent blogged lately but have been trying to catch up. Ive given up on pics until I get a different camera! I now have a car that’s 2/3 & 1/3!!! Now the thing Ive discovered while trying to sand/plane 50+yrs off my slabs is: This 2x workbench is not up to the task of full-blown wood working that I’m faced with. Just trying to clamp these 1×4s to the top was an act of frustration. So as ususal, I’ve spent the last 3 wks reading/studying everything I can get my hands on about the perfect Workbench. have given myself a crash course in benches, decided on a plan, and started a near riot at HD store about square or round bench-dogs. Ive read some good ideas here at LJ but I’m open to more. Boon, it takes two hands… say hello to my Glidewell cousins in Newbern.
