How 'bout that? Thanks for the heads-up Jon.

David, I took a look at your vid. One word - STURDY. I like your adjustments. I've had a number of questions about the stability of the MDF inserts and you have taken it to the next level I have chatted with some about putting some supports inside the well but I like your approach as well. Even less chance for the inserts to wobble. I also like how you have moved the legs out towards the front edge of the bench. I've learned in my further reading on benches that is the way to go.

Nice new toys too.

Giz -

Well I was pretty surprised by that! Just got an email from FFW that Jeff & I were quoted on their view blog series GlueTube. Very Cool! Congratulations on your new shop upgrades . . . I have been following along via LJ email updates.

Jeff - I moved the legs out to the edge to increase stability and to allow some face clamping modifications that I had I mind. I am primarily a power tool shop that is working hard to incorporate hand tools for final fit and finish. I hope this bench will span the support and clamping needs for both worlds.

Below are the references for my inspiration:
