One phrase comes to mind over the top!
I like it.

Bench looks great. Weighs in just about as much as I do after grilling filets last evening.
Almost too nice to work on. Great job.
Been around power equipment all my life and can still count to twenty one nakey
....and here I was wondering if I could justify making my bench top out of maple ply instead of MDF.
Truly Gorgeous!
but.... how do you get the benchdogs back up?

Semper Audere!
So what was the final cost?
Unbelievable! What a fantastic piece of furniture.
Oh Man!! That is a show piece. I'd never get any work done because I would be afraid to scratch it. Way too cool.
Wow...between the wood and the castings...marvelous!

The most expensive tool is the one you buy "cheaply" and often...
Great job, Jim. Smart way to advertise too. So, what will the dogs be made out of - yellow heart maybe? Like one of the other posters, I also wonder - will you have to pull a drawer out to poke them back up?
My wife loves bloodwood. Hm. I wonder if show her this pic...
Where did I put that tape measure...
First of all thanks everybody for all the nice comments.
The cost was really nothing as we cut up an old bloodwood that had been laying in the pasture for probably 50 years. The brass vice plates were the most expensive as the brass pipe we cut up and melted down cost about $150 .
The dogs have a vertical releif of about 1/16 of an inch so they come out very easily but fight tightly. Just so one doesnt put the bevel to the wrong side. Yes it is a left handed bench.
Very nice workbench.
