I have a knockdown Roubo workbench for sale. It was made for me by Jason Barry from The Little Bench in Ontario, Canada.
I bought it a few of years ago with the intension of building it up myself. It is currently a kit of parts in the shipping crate and will need finishing, including cutting the mortises in the tops and legs to complete the bench. I had intended to fit it with a Benchcrafted leg vice and a Veritas chain vice at one end. Simply never got around to it.
It cost $1975USD for the kit of parts plus shipping costs to CT from Canada (not including the vice hardware - which has been sold already and is not included)
The bench is fully crated as it arrived from Canada, and I would be willing to rent a trailer and drop it off at a local freight terminal for shipping if required.
I would be looking for reasonable offers around $1200 or feel free to PM me to discuss if you are interested. Located in Ridgefield, CT 06877.

You asked me regarding the requirements for the addition of a Tool Well. This bench has actually been constructed to allow for a 5-3/4” wide Sunken Tool Well. It’s a very popular modification my clients appreciate.
The End Stretchers are constructed with Tenons complete to make a final width of 31”

All Additional Blanks supplied would be S4S and slightly over-sized for you to make final fit adjustments per your preference.
I hope this information helps you make some determinations David. It’s a stunning Component Roubo with gorgeous hand selected and crafted solid White Ash material.
