This is an incredibly well-designed table. I am very happy that I chose this over the "highest recommend" table on Amazon that you have probably already looked at if you are on this page.Something I didn't realize when I bought this was when you fold the table top down, it becomes one saw horse. Also it comes with high quality rubber snapping straps that allow you to hook two tables together. So buying two of these would be a good investment.The plastic is very high quality. It is heavy, sturdy and soft to the touch (not glossy like a cheaper plastic would feel)The clamps work really well in their slots. They feel solid and there is a place to store them on the legs when you fold it up.I live in an apartment and I do my wood working on the balcony, so this is a perfect fit. It would also be a good fit for people who need to be able to move their equipment like a contractor. This table is definitely a contractor grade design and material.This table comes with a 3-year warranty that you can fill out online or send in the mail with postage stamp paid by you.I could not be happier with this table, it would be nice if it had a router mount add-on, but none of the competition (except one of the poor-quality Husky tables that I looked at) has this feature. I went to all of my home improvement stores, read all the reviews for other tables and couldn't find anything that I fell in love with. I impulse bought this one based on it's looks and it turned out to be the perfect table.

I greatly appreciate that you made and published this video, especially after so much care and effort to duplicate the joints for clarity. I have a couple hundred feet of scrap pine from a door shop where I used to work that I will be laminating up for my build. After trimming of the tongue & groove edges I'll have just over 4" of usable material. I wanted to use all of it and hoped it wouldn't be too thick. You've convinced me that it won't be. I have specifically been looking around to decide on my approach to joinery, particularly for flush legs. I believe that search is now over. Pine is obviously not ideal (not even "southern yellow pine"), but I have this and I believe at 4" thick it will be sufficiently rigid for my current needs. I don't have room for my dream bench in this home so this will suit me until I have room and budget for my dream bench. It won't look quite as perfect as yours but it will be nearly as solid. Thanks again!

Certainly. I just finished planing all the stock last night. But everything is shy of 3/4" (19mm) so I'm going to laminate them in pairs with opposing grain, then plane once more to ensure consistent thickness, and then I can take on your style build. Lots of work ahead. But I've saved your video in a playlist of things I must make so I can find it for reference. :)

8 years on from your posting I am so inspired by this video...your work is really wonderful. I'm going to give it a go. I have two questions relating to the Benchcrafted hardware you mention. (I've just purchased the tail vise). 1/ Could I move the front right leg to the left on a version of your bench to make room for the tail vise as they mention on the BC website? 2/ Everyone who fits this vise talks about what a difficult and mammoth job it is to fit it properly - could I use your logic in the mortise and tenons, simplifying the joinery by making most of the necessary cuts before lamination? I know it would take careful planning but is there some pitfall which I might not be seeing? Sorry to trouble you so long after you posted this; I would be very grateful for any advice. Thank you so much.

I find this method extremely useful as someone who lives in Europe where finding good timber and especially good timber of larger dimensions a challenge. 'Laminating' the joints solves a lot of the issues that arise from this lack of good source material. I mean honestly, go to any DIY store here and you will find only the most common stuff (often cheap knockoff in house brands too). Good luck finding, for example, a table saw. A job site saw (again of some non descript brand) sure, but a good table saw with a cast iron table and decent fence, never. All of that you have to get from a handful of people who import it from abroad in small numbers. Same thing with wood, you will find pretty much only pine (and not the better stuff either), and stuff like plywood and MDF. I literally have to drive 1 hour to find a place (specialized in wood) where they can provide me with other kinds of wood (often recycled wood which I love because you can really get good deals on it).

David, nice idea. I thought about your approach, and it seems to me the challenge is to get the top edge boards glued without having them move a bit. Everyone who has glued up knows boards slip; it's a challenge to keep them still. Using brads with the heads cut off can cause enough grab to keep the boards still as the glue cures. Did you do anything special to keep the boards from slipping when glued up? Maybe that's why the fourth joint was stubborn when inserting the leg? Thanks for the detailed video.

This is a brilliant and clearly presented video and I shall definitely be saving this into my woodworking folder. Your bench is a great example of thinking outside the box and makes me realise that even though I am a very new woodworker, it’s still possible for me to construct a fantastic bench such as yours - although, maybe a little rougher around the edges.

Chris, I enjoyed reading your post, I got started with handtool woodworking just a few years ago, upon retirement. It kind of snuck up on me through buying a few rusty handplanes on Ebay and restoring them. The KZitem video's about the Roubo workbench inspired me to build some shop furniture to practice the joinery. The split-top saw bench and a Japanese sawhorse of the same height gave me a work surface and some rough beams salvaged via Craig's list gave me the material. If I had seen THIS video first, it would have been an easier and improved result, though my bench looks just fine and is heavy enough to stay put. Yes, it was 'over my head' at that time...just like the set of George Nakamura inspired Conoid Chairs that I just completed. It's a craft filled with many mistakes and much satisfaction. Enjoy! -Veteran '66-68
