    And then there's the bits n pieces that dissappear down dog holes

    Ken, I'd like to play on your bench - nice

    John,

    Thanks.

    That bench is no longer in use, still in the shop but mostly used for storage of wood.

    Dog holes here as well, where they go from there who knows.

    I love my bench shelf. If I ever build another bench it will have a shelf as well.

    Gravity holds mine in. It comes out now and then for clean up and retrieval of dropped stuff.
    Sharp solves all manner of problems.

    Matt,

    A much simpler bench, that does the basic holding very well and lets the seldom used appliances such as the sliding dead man and the wagon vise be taken care of by other means that are not a part of the bench. Too much capability just gets in the way of day to day work. Also a bench that was easier to build and one that I can move without help.

    My basic bench is now a Moravian with a leg vise and dog holes.

    Simple with nothing to get in the way of most jobs, when other means of work holding is needed there are an endless number of bench appliances and fixtures that can be used quickly and with ease.
