I purchased at a very reasonable price a nice workbench made by a member here. It has served me well but one of the reason it was let go was because the PO wanted to make another workbench, a better one learning from the experience from the first. It comes time for me as well to build something better. The major problem with the one I have now is the glue joints have separated in places. The top is also uneven and needs to be resurfaced. Wood is very expensive here in Northern Arizona and the top alone would cost well over $1k based on pricing a few years ago. The top is made out of 1 3/4" x 3 1/4" maple. There are no end caps. Is it possible to salvage the top by separating the individual sections by perhaps sawing along the glue line, jointing and gluing it back together again?
