    Jake,

    Thanks, I expect others might find them a little boring but I agree, I spent a good amount of time with coffee in hand just looking and touching the new bench.

    Ken,what are the dimensions of the top of your bench? The front slab seems much bigger than that posted by Will Myers.

    David,

    It is. The bench is not meant to be portable so almost all the dimensions are larger. The shop bench is 18" wide and 3 1/2" thick. The two portable benches, IIRC are ~11" and ~12" wide and 8/4 thick.

    Very nice bench, Ken. I love the shot of her next to the sawhorse- kinda looks like a mare and her foal.

    Thanks Malcolm. I hadn't noticed the shave horse next to the bench before, once I saw it it brought a smile.

    Here is the bench today, I still haven't re-done the tool tray as planned and it has been moved to the main bench position. All I can say is it is a joy to work on, everything needed with nothing extra to get in the way.
