What depth is the bench? I am about to make a bench in my new shed and want to make it big enough for the 1050 when I get it.

@ghulands 30 inches... 1050 has a pretty small foot print...

I'm not sure if I would paint, I like the looks of natural wood but if I did paint it. It would would be a light gray color for contrast I believe if you painted it white eventually you would get a headache from the brightness, just a thought. have fun....

@rchopp good points , thanks

Linseed oil over the wood then plexy glass. You can put pics of vidieos from when you first started on YouTube. Would paint the walls white and I think some one suggested Pegboard...LOL I could be wroing might have miss read...Paula

@Allen2045 ohhh i like this idea

City, its a work bench. Best cover is Stainless Steal. It will scratch and dent, but again its a work bench. I would go a step further and seal the plywood with polyurethane...I am new to your channel and have enjoyed the video's and your humor....

Off subject but what brand of loader should i get? Mostly gonna make 9mm . I want a decent one

[siltorr1]

if you are covering the bench top i wouldn't worry about painting it. I would sand the plexiglass with a vibrating sander. It will make the plexiglass opaque. This will disguise the scratches it will get later while you are working. The molding that you like so well will get in the way. eventually you will snag it and break part of it off. (known from experience}. But then you might be more careful than i was. Good luck it is looking good

I always paint my work benches. If left as raw wood, they just suck up dirt and grease/oils and end up looking like crap fast. Then again, if you are going to keep this as a dedicated loading bench sizing lube would be the the worst thing that would come near it, and the plexy would solve that. And I agree with the pegboard!

@Allen2045 You can Actually keep the wood look and have a logo or pictures centered under the plexiglass... I saw a buddy do that, it looks sweeeeeeeeeet. makes me wanna do it...
