One of the first things I needed to get sorted in the 'shop was a new workbench - my old one was a couple of kitchen cabinets with MDF on the top.
So using some CND Maple and Beech which I had lying round, I made a start on the new bench. It's 2.4mtrs long, and 1.1mtrs deep (just about reach to the back of the bench).
On the end sections I went to town with pegged M&T's
But my enthusiasm waned somewhat, so the front rails were just glued and screwed to the rear of the front legs. :roll:
Top is made up 3 sheets of 18mm mdf - i'll be lipping this with some AWO. Front vice is the Veritas twin screw model off my old bench, and i'll put some dog holes in the top when it's all done.
Cheers
Karl
