Your LJ name is so appropriate. Golden Hands indeed. Thanks for posting this.

Yuri, I’m looking forward to watching the progress of this remarkable bench. Hopefully, since you are in your early thirties, the bench will be an antique before it is handed down in your family by reason of death.

-- Phil in British Columbia

WOW I am very interested in seeing the rest of your future heirloom take shape. Would you consider adopting me?

Amazing

Keep going and post pictures.
That’s some pretty sharp carving.

-- Eric

WOW I am in awe… You are right not to many workbenches are left behind as a true heirloom and sought after for their design well done. Looking forward for the end product…

-- David '65

Nice carving. I like the toe nails. Very nice detail.

-- Dennis Zongker

Thats a great bench carving. I’d be a little concerned about some foot kicking the toe nails on the leg carving.

Thank you all,
lol Terry love your question, well adopting some one takes hell of a time, nurves and money – all that I would like to sepend on my projects – see how selffish I am :)
Karson, yea I thought of it too but as I am restorer myself – I do love to create some headakes for my collegues. Well could be a good idea to mark a red line around the bench and put a large sign – DO NOT TOUCH – nah, I am gona work on it, so me would be the first who is gona kick it lol, and I am not gona cry about it – history, lol you know.

Thank you all for your time and comments.

outstanding carving great work

-- Jim from Heirloom Woodshop Southern Oregon

wonderful idea

Be Careful. Too many more design elements and it will end up in the Grand Children’s Living Room instead of what it is designed to do. Very cool design. I can honestly say i have never seen that and am looking forward to the direction this will take.

Very very nice! I would be proud to have my friends and family over ot hang out in the shop with a work bench of that calaber taking center stage! I look forward to seeing more.

Has a very medieval appearance will have a life all of its own. Outstanding!

amazing

Great work, you defiantly do have golden hands. The detail is awesome.

-- Wood and Glass they kick (well you know) Have a great day - Dug

That is amazing work.

Thank you very much all for your apriciation.
It will take me some time to understand what the other leg is going to be look like.
As I do not want to repeat the same design, however it must fit the one that is already has been made.
Hope it will hapen before Christmass, but still the way of insight (hope the spelling is correct) is unpredictable and to make something in order to complete it fast is not what I am about.
Will keep you posted :)
