Two centuries of workbench wisdom in one book With this book, your very first workbench will do everything you need it to do--possibly for the rest of your woodworking career. Encompassing years of historical research and real-world trials, Christopher Schwarz boils down centuries of the history and engineering of workbenches into basic ideas that all woodworkers can use. • Learn how to design your own world-class workbench • Learn the fundamental rules of good workbench design that have been largely forgotten • Learn how to build an inexpensive and practical bench that hasn't been in widespread use for over 100 years • Learn how to properly use any workbench In this revised and updated edition you'll find plans for five benches--two sturdy English benches and two variations on the French Roubo, as well as a portable bench you can clamp to any solid surface.
