  • I was wondering is there a good solid way to build this bench without having the bottom stringers? I want to store things under the bench that are on rolling carts. Thanks Pat

  • @Belg1970 I've seen benches that double up the top stringer. Instead of 4 or 5 inches they made it 8 to 10 inches wide. It sort of works but not the same.

  • Flip me. . the camera work gave me motion sickness. . .

  • @flamesfromblazer Ha Ha. I'll admit it's not my best camera work. I'll get the hang of this. Sorry it made you sick.

  • Why do people even comment on the music? wtf. Unless it's loud or very annoying who gives a crap what it is? lol.. nice video

  • @WakeUpDummies Thanks for the support. Not sure why your comment was tagged as spam. I un-spam it.

  • @Belg1970 Honestly, no.

    You will have a bench that will rack badly if you ever handplane on it.

    Your best bet for a design like this will be to go to an original Roubo style bench with a very thick top (4" plus) and dovetail and tenon the legs into the top. Then use one very beefy stringer in the front through mortised into the legs, and use double stringers, also through mortised, on the back and sides.

    You will need to oversize everything else to regain the lost strength.

  • @wnwoodworks

    Thanks. I probably ticked off someone who whined about the music. haha.

    I build a cheesy bench nothing like this. Wish I had the tools, time and skill to do so

  • William, great video and wonderful music. Keep'em coming!

  • Where could a guy find plans for this? ;)
