Hot dog very simple table workbench. I think I may be making one or two myself.
Hotdog
I just wanted to point out the hazard of having no vacuum. It's not necessary at the start to have one but still practice body safety by having some ventilation and wear some kind of mask.
Hahaha 🤣
I love the title to this video❤️
Then the extra tools start popping up at the parking lot cut
0:27 and 2:38.
HOT DOG! I have been following you for years. Since your first channel. You were just a kid on the farm in Ohio.😊
It is SO NICE finally having a beginners video. I'm just getting into woodworking, and it's frustrating when every single youtuber is like "we're making a simple workbench today that anybody can do with ease. So, grab your slab of black maple and run it through your jointer and planer. Round off the edges with your table router. Now, pull out your $1200 Festool domino joiner and--"
Pro tip - bring a cart in from the parking lot. My home centers (Lowes and Home Depot both) are horrible about rounding them up and putting them back on the shopping floor. If you don't bring one in, you'll waste a bunch of time looking for one and probably end up heading out to the parking lot to find one. Doesn't happen always, but enough that I bring one in just in case. Same thing applies to garden shopping carts.
I'm only a few minutes in and I can't tell you how much I appreciate this video (and would love to see more like it). There's a thousand videos on how to build things, but as a newbie woodworker the thing I've struggled with most is literally how do I pick out wood. Starting your video off with the whole process of what to get, and how to get it is honestly so useful.
Also Hotdog
Well said.
Hot dog! Thank you for explaining the additional tools and how they work, too! As a beginner, it can be overwhelming trying to figure out what is worth splurging on when you don't have a ton of extra cash. This plan is so needed for us who have small spaces and few tools starting out.
The panel saw is the home center version of the shake or ice cream machine in fast food places.
Just remember for those who don't know, Sande plywood is from a Sande Tree which is a Central American hardwood (part of the reason it's so expensive at places like Home Depot and Lowes) it's not Sanded plywood :)
thank you for the comment
Hotdog 🌭 I really enjoy your videos 🇨🇦
Hello Sir Jumbly! I'm nearly 52 years old, and have been working with wood for a hobby and to repair things since I was a child. I've had my modest 16' x 24' shop for over 20 years, but reading your comment regarding Sande wood, I have only one thing to say:
Today, I learned.
I always assumed that was a typo. I have a saying that I tell people from time to time:
"The day you stop learning is the day you start dying."
Keep your head up and your eyes and ears open and you'll learn something every single day. Thank you for pointing that out.
I didn't start a comment here, but I'll say it anyway, HOT DOG!
@@godzillafirebox7765 Always keep learning, Even a master is a fool to believe they know it all :)
Sande plywood at Home Depot here is the least expensive plywood
Thanks for mentioning that everybody makes mistakes, to me it's actually the fun part: you get to learn to avoid certain mistakes (learning process) and how to fix them after (the fun challenge). That's why I'm a big fan of WWMM. Really enjoyed your video. Basic tools, patience and having fun. Thanks man !
Brother man, first 4 minutes and you’ve already earned yourself a subscriber. What a wonderful, realistic representation of what I’m going through
If you screw your pocket holes from the outside of the 90, your screw will have more wood to spread the force of any flex to. Screwing on the inside toward the edge reduces the amount of wood reinforcing your screw. Hope that is as clear as mud.
Steve Ramsey and Matt Outlaw both have pretty good tutorials on pocket holes.
Great video! Thanks for making a video for the new guys!
FOR THE NEWBIES, THEY WON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT. HENCE!!!!! THE LAYMEN VIDIO!!!! THANK YOU FOR CLAIRIFING. MUCH APPRECIATED.
I didn't understand a word
This Is true but then they wouldn't be hidden anymore
@@randybobandy9828 that’s when you fill them with a dowel.
Yeah, he should have used glue with this method.
Hotdogs. I really appreciate this video. I have been in construction for years and only have basic tools. Now I'm having some downtime and want to get into cabinetry and furniture. Seeing this gives me some more confidence in the tools I have and not stressing about the ones I don't
Hot dog! That was so clear and I totally appreciate the steps from picking out materials to finish and the different ways one can accomplish the same results - cuts, butt joints, etc.
Hot dog! Great and useful build! Regarding mistakes, my teacher in woodworking school actually had us write down all of our mistakes. Because you really forget them fast when you've solved the problem. After the project we had to go through them and about half way down the list you're like: "how the hell did I even finish this project" xD
Hot dog!
I love that you are doing this to help bring new people into the woodworking community. A workbench doesn't need to be made of walnut and maple since it's just going to get beat up anyways. Keep up the great work!
Hot dog! Thank you thank you THANK YOU for this post! I've been working on designing a relatively basic dog crate cover/table using pocket holes - and it basically looks like this workbench without the middle shelf. I'm new to woodworking; so, I didn't want to spend a huge amount of money on tools, but I've been struggling figuring out how to clamp the legs to join the pocket holed legs. I've really enjoyed your videos - and how candid you are about everybody making mistakes. Again, thank you so much!
That's the pocket hole jig I bought when adding uprights to our deck to support screening it in.
Hot Dog - It awesome that you show building something with a lack of tools but then adding additional tools to make the job easier or faster. I feel this gives the beginner hope and also shows them tools to look forward to buying.
Hot dog! The way you describe each step of the build and show that even with basic tools to make something is wonderful. It is nice to know that even someone who has been woodworking for awhile makes mistakes. I have been woodworking since the beginning of COVID and I find that I only learn and improve from my mistakes. I really appreciate your videos. Thank you!
Hot Dog - Just came across your channel and was really blown away by the honesty of your presentation. Mistakes, oh yeah we all make them and hopefully learn from them. Far too often I like others have the fear of making mistakes and therefore don't attempt a project I really want to get done, or I make a mistake and quit and years later the project is there in the corner of my small shop, laughing at me because it won. I think I'm going to dust them off and get finished. Thank you
Hotdog thanks for including oversights / mistakes and alternative methods. Tablesaws are everywhere on UA-cam woodworking channels but nowhere near as common in Europe where homes & garages are smaller, or no garage at all
Hot Dog! And hi from Ireland. Great to see achievable simple projects that don’t require a pure fortune in tools and materials. Thanks for the free plans! Happy Thanksgiving to you and all my American friend.
Hot Dog!!!
Very nice, simple project, Eric!
Your advice to newbie’s that mistakes will always be made is spot-on!!
When I started playing golf, I used to get pissed when I hit a poor shot. When I finally realized that, “I’m not good enough to get mad” I had more fun and my game and scoring got much, much better!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
I couldn't have said it better myself! thanks for watching bill!
"Truck" 🤣 Hot dog, that was a good one!
I definitely need to look into getting one of those saw guides, although I noted that my current circular saw is a little loose in its bearings, so it might be with upgrading that, too.
Great video! Although I'm not a fan of your video titles. Although this title is covered in the video, it is so brief that it could be considered insignificant. I would have used it as a secondary (parenthetical) title, with something like "Let's get your woodworking/carpentry started with a basic workbench!" or something like that. YMMV.
HOTDOG, Thank you so much for showing how things can be done, simply and inexpensively. I'm only starting out, and at 65, you've made things easy and understandable.
Hot Dog you are doing such a good job, not only in what you build but showing people what can be done in a small space if you use a little creative thinking. When I was still able to work I used to build furniture for my home & toys for my children as they came along. Well done mate, cheers, Don from South Aust.
Hot Dog. Thanks for showing us how to do a project with minimal tools! Really appreciate your honesty about how things really go on a project.
HOT DOG…. Appreciate the good content and the acknowledgement that we all make mistakes. I’m still early in my woodworking journey and, after the initial irritation from screwing something up, I remind myself that it’s all part of learning. Subscribed.
Hot dog! As a newbie, you're examples of working with minimal tools is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!
Hot dog! This was a brutally honest video. I thought I would give it a go today after watching your video last night. I have all the fancy gear but I thought I would go back to my woodworking roots (no pun intended) and go basic as you did. It was actually so much fun to do something using minimal tools. Well done Mr Spencley. Your video has achieved what you set out for it to do. Hats off to you all the way from Kangaroo Flat, Victoria, Australia.👍🏻
I really enjoyed this video. Subscribed. I can only add one very minor thing. When ever I haul ANYTHING that's hangs over the the edge of my vehicle, I add a high visible cloth or flagging tape. It's not really required by law in my state until the over hang is longer than 36" supported feet , but better safe than sorry.
hot dog. this is a great starter idea. i showed my son who has helped me over the years, but has expressed an interest in "setting up" his own shop. thanks!
Hot Dog, Great starter bench for the first timer. Although I’m past this stage, It’s nice to see someone really showing beginners that it is possible. Keep up the good work.
Hot dog! Definitely one I will tackle. Just curious why you didn't use any glue. Anyway, I hope you consider doing more videos that add on to the bench, like wheels, drawers, etc. Thanks.
HOT DOG!!! Wait, was that one word, or two? Just to cover my bases... HOTDOG!!! This is a really great video! Just discovered your channel your video about getting dropped from a certain other platform, but moving on, your videos are GLORIOUS!!! You don't throw around acronyms or jargon that I'd have to have some experience to interpret, etc., and you really do empathize with the noobs like me!!! I think you do a great job of balancing the total noob approach, while still juggling the ADHD of my deep inner child and my need for details! Downloaded this plan, and paid for another plan for a chair! I'm connecting with how you present information here! A new subscriber is born!!!
Hotdog with catsup! Oh, do I love this video. It is one of the best “been, there and done thats” that I have seen lately. Classy and practical to the nines. The Spencley philosophy works!
HOT DOG!
I feel like it can't be overstated the importance of patience in getting a really nice product, with respect to making sure everything is lined up right, doing the actual cutting/assembly/etc., AND (perhapes especially) willingness to take the time to fix mistakes. And I'd say that applies whether or not you have the fancy tools, but especially so when you're working with limited or cheap ones.
Hot Dog, Eric! Thanks for continuing to keep it real. You are such an upbeat positive guy. Mistakes are just a part of the figuring it out! Happy Thanksgiving!
Hot dog. When I had my shop, I actually built my bench and table router in a similar fashion using 2x4s and MDF board. I started with an M18 drill/driver kit and a DeWalt jobsite table saw (both bought on sale) and went to town. I knew there would be a possibility of losing that shop which I did, so when I had to pack up my shop into storage, I left the bench and router table behind, as I was less than $75 in materials for them. Also I recommend Harbor Freights tool stands when they're on sale. I got a bunch of them so I never had to use any tools on the floor.
Hot dog.... Just started watching some of your videos randomly (words community, cheese, and ostrich) this evening. You said it well in this video about some channels having decked out shops and describing their methods with the expensive tool systems. I also enjoyed the fact that you used pocket holes for this bench. I just recently made an entire shelf wall for my living room using pocket holes. Definitely on the starter set of kreg jig at this point. I remember getting the comments from my FIL about them not being strong enough. I also get comments from him now on how well they turned out every time he visits. Definitely had my share of mistakes and goofs during that project. Thank you for showing the real side of the maker process.
Hotdog! Nice build. New to the sport, I appreciate your detail! If people don’t think it would be strong enough, maybe they don’t realize the strength of 3/4” plywood. I do like the idea of an over sized top though because I end up clamping down workpieces all the time, for jigsaw cuts, sanding, etc. I also like your design because later, you could cut down the legs to serve as an outfeed table.
Hot Dog!! Another great video. I'm a big fan of Kreg tools so glad to see you are still working with them after the whole Instagram thing. Tables of that size are good to have at any level of wood working.
thank you for the continued support! kreg is a fantastic supporter and i'm happy to be working with them
The bench turned out fine, but the first part of your video you say that you’re going to build it with two tools and two minutes later you are using your Kreg rip guide. Almost $50 it’s almost half the cost of a cheap drill and saw set. Don’t get me wrong. It’s a good product and I like Kreg stuff. I just think you need to reword your intro.
Thank you man. Very down to earth advice.
Now to get my head around your measurement system.
17:57 , since early apprenticeship, I was taught it’s not that a journeyman doesn’t make mistakes, it’s that a journeyman knows how to fix or hide them.
Hot dog. The more I progress in my woodworking journey, I appreciate when the challenge is to use as few tools as possible. Looking forward to more projects from you, and me too!
Dog of hot, I appreciate this. I have a lot of tools, but I needed to build a quicker worktop as part of my outfeed table for table saw, and I happened to have a straight 4x8 sheet of 23/32 plywood here. Your timing is perfect!
Love the video, especially the concept of using minimal tools.
I am thinking about starting woodworking and this was really encouraging!
Thanks :)
Fantastic! Really love the way you approach these sorts of projects and make them so accessible without any compromise to function. Great work, and much appreciated!
Hotdog! Great video. Just found your channel, and subscribed. Love the concepts of using simple tools
You should have said that this was also sponsored by Kreg. You said at the beginning that this would only use two cheap tools. If you want a straight line you could have easily added a speed square. Also as a woodworker that is creative and has just started, you could have for example done a couple of cutoffs and made a straight edge or butt up against the wall and used that as a fence for the first cut and then used those cuts as guides for the rest of the project, your clamps are screws and so on. The main sponsor, "Letsgetchecked", has less air time than Kreg.
I got the same impression. Anybody who knows anything about woodworking knows the costs he had involved in making the workbench exceeded what a better factory made one would cost and much less time!
Hotdog, that turned out nice. Awesome videos and enjoy shop class. Keeps me inspired and focused on learning the craft and not loading up on tools that I don't need yet, just want lol.
You can do it with minimal tools! no reason to go broke getting into this hobby 😀
Hot Dog! Eric... I love this video. 2 things you nailed... 1. You do not need a lot to make things 2. We all make mistakes. I started with a very similar situation as you. I was in the USCG and living in Portland Oregon. We had an outdoort closet and it needed shelves and we could not screw anything into the walls of the closet. So using only a hand saw, drill and screws... I built a 4 shelf unit with 2 x 2s and Plywood. The shelves held the posts into the corners and braces ont the posts held the shelves up. I loved by creative solution... That was more then 25 years ago. I now have a woodshop full of tools... Watching your video brings me back to that time. Your instruction is excellent and ability to build a community is inpriational. Keep up the great work and I will be continuing to follow you!
John Hall
Hot Dog! Thanks for this beginner's video, I fit the bill exactly. 61 years old and no experience with working wood. A bench is exactly what I need. Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
You are right. Every woodworker makes mistakes. I am a woodworker and I watched this video!
Hot Dog! Nice bench for those with limited tools. Well done! (and thanks!)
Thanks Dan! I appreciate the support!
Hot Dog, That is a great design for a bench or work table. Very stable and easy to make. I've been using that basic design for 25 + years. Some times when I want to beef it up using 2 x 6's for the legs, 2 x 4's for the top and a full 4 x 8 sheet of plywood. Add casters for a mobile assembly table. Great video for the new wood worker. Thanks for doing it.
I chuckled a bit when you jumped on the workbench saying "strong enough!" and then the bench just dangerously wobbled :D Anyway, hot dog ;)
Hot dog! It’s really encouraging to see someone that lives in Ana apartment still make use of cheap effective spaces, materials, and tools. Makes me want to start my wood shop that much sooner even living in an apartment with only a garage to my name. Thank you, sir!
you should absolutely give it a shot!
Hot dog!! Haha. It's great you think about the beginner woodworker, and actually show the steps for them. Another great video.
Glad you liked it!
@@SpencleyDesignCo always like the videos. I wish I could contribute. Just don't have extra funds. I was actually starting to do woodworking but I had some eye issues so had to quit. I lost some vision in one eye. Still have to put tools up for sale. Anyway. Haha. Yes awesome job always.
You gotta be kidding me. $75 for a sheet of plywood? Inflation must be horrible in the US.
Hot Dog! This is probably the simplest work bench I have ever seen and probably one be building one for myself in the near future.
Hot dog! I actually like how you showed 4 different ways to join the workbench and how to avoid common mistakes with the splitting wood. Forgive me for skipping the ad, but um, I wasn't the target audience. Go Bucks!
Thanks for checking out the video, vanessa! I appreciate your feedback and glad you found it helpful
Hot Dog! You are doing such great content... love watching you develop and grow!
Glad you enjoy it! I appreciate the continued support anthony!
Hot dog.
I think I bought too many tools...nah, that's impossible 😂🤣
I have basically the same "truck" and can totally get a sheet of plywood home uncut.
Modern vehicle marketing likes to pretend you need tons of dedicated space for every purpose, and you should pay tens of thousands of dollars to be ready for every possibly. But it turns out there's tons of space on the roof. You can tie on directly through the doors using foam or a blanket to protect your paint. Or, what I did, is invest $500ish in a roof rack. Gives exterior tie-on points and a flatish surface, and I'd be more confident if I needed to take the car on the highway (I haven't taken wood out of town, but do routinely take bikes or the canoe).
I also got my table saw home this way.
Complete list of stuff Actually used to build this...
1. Plywood sheet
2. Circular Saw
3. Foam Board scraps
4. 1 1/2 inch screws
5. Ratchet Straps (or a pickup truck!)
6. Edge guide for Circular Saw
7. Kreg Rip guide
8. Speed Square
9. Small clamps while cutting legs
10. Tape Measure
11. Cordless Drill
12. Pocket Hole Jig (two of them actually)
13. Shop Vac for Dust collection
14. At least 4 bar clamps, about 24 inch long
15. Extension bit for Drill (appears to be 8 inch extension)
WOW -- that's a lot of stuff for a bench made "with only a Circular saw and a Drill" !!!
I have been doing good but NOT perfect woodwork for about 50 years. I really enjoy your honesty as you present your projects. Also I have learned some things from you as well. Thanks Neil
Ditto! It is refreshing for someone to NOT be pushing expensive tools on every video.
The clip about your "truck" made me laugh. Smart idea to bring a powered saw and some foam with. I'll have to do that.
Hot dog. Looks like a great project for me as a beginner. Plus, bonus workbench... Also thinking of making extras for garden shed
Hot Dog!! Great job showing how little you need to get started!! Safely first, help new woodworkers protect themselves and quickly go over PPE’s. Just started watching and subscribed.
Hot dog! I struggle with getting 45 degree angle cuts that fit well together. I do have several kreg tools including that saw guide, it’s a huge help on projects too small to drag a table saw out for.
Hot Dog
1st, loved the Ron Swanson clip, hilarious XD
2nd, I live in an apartment so I don't have any real exterior space to work with for cutting. But! I am on the terrace level so I've got the ground nearby. If I'm using a portable bench or something to elevate my wood should I be worried about making sure its level when I make cuts or is stable good enough?
3rd, I was lucky enough to inherit some good tools from my late grandfather who did carpentry as a hobby. One of those is a corded Stehl circular saw. Other than "range" is there any real disadvantage to a corded vs cordless?
Hotdog! You really worried me when you jumped onto the bench! That was a considerable wobble. If I were building it I would have also glued every joint that you screwed. I'd just consider the pocket screws to be like clamps.
In fact, I built Steve Ramsey's BMW bench using doubled 2x4's for the legs with half-lap joints, and only used glue; not one screw or nail. It's really sturdy.
Go to the boxes at 6AM when they open and there are carts everywhere.
Hot Dog. I started out as a carpenter in the 70's with basic hand tools in a tool belt and an air compressor in the back seat, a trunk packed to the gills with routers, circular saws, jig saws, drills etc. and a couple hundred feet of extension cord in my 68 Chevelle Malibu going from site to site hustling work. I now have a bunch of antique tools like 1947 a Shop Smith(lathe) a radial arm saw, job site table saw and a boatload of Makita battery tools. Creativity is the key to woodworking and Making. Don't buy something because you see it, buy it because you NEED it. Nothing is perfect and we need to understand the process will never be perfect. The sign of a creator is how to fix mistakes and move on.
I used to work at home depot 13 years ago, I never minded cutting wood for people
Hotdogs. Thank you for projects that those of us with limited equipment can do. Much appreciated. More please💐
Hotdog ~ Thank you for this video, I used it to make my nice new work bench. It lives on my decking with a plastic sheet over it as I haven't got a garage. I was using an old dinning chair or the floor. Thank you for the tip about splashing out on a more expensive sheet of ply, I got marine ply which resists the damp🤞. It's a shame that I saw this video after I had already built my garden cupboard, which wobbles 🫤 My nice flat work bench is going to be a game changer 🙂
Hot Dog (crap now im hungry) I always wondered what those pocket hole things were for. Love the channel and your workspace. Your shed looks really well with the wood finish!
I must be lucky, Never had an issue with finding someone to cut my plywood down for me.
HOT DOG! Nice way to track retention. Thank you for this build. I've seen lots of work bench videos using 2x4 and all kinds of tools to build them but this simplistic build and design definitely makes building one more achievable.
Hot dog...its nice to learn about that kreg rip guide. I was making my own storm windows and had a heck of a time getting straight cuts with circular saw and a prayer 😊
I used to have a Civic Si, same generation. I got 7, 8ft boards in that car. Used them to build my 1st bench too. Was a great car for fishing too.
Hotdog: Really liked how you made this as basic as possible. I've watched many workbench videos and most are VERY complex. More often than not, all you need is a basic workbench. Thanks.
Hot Dog. This is very encouraging for the aspiring woodworker. Thank you.
Hot Dog! You have given me ideas for my "garage shop". I have a contractor saw as my first large expense and learned about "fence" accuracy. Makes me want another item to make any fabrication easier, computer designing.
Make mistakes here instead if on the material purchased ($$$ saved).
Great video. the only thing missing is showing them how to use the tablesaw. How you use the nothses in front to line up and keeping the line straight
Hot dog! "Prepubescent truck", LOL.
Hot Dog. Your build explains how to achieve items with minimal tools while also showing faster versions of the tools. It is easy to follow and should provide a great reference for beginners and hobbyists. Well done
hot dog. I'll be using this idea for my workbench/outfeed table.
Would you consider cooking, wait for it..."hot dogs"...on your new work bench? Enjoyed the video!
Hotdog. Amazing how those two tools suddenly became many.. guides, squares, pocket hole jigs, clamps, special drill bits...
HOT DOG bench building to make me feel inferior once again! But honestly - love the quick and simple design, love that it can be done with minimal tools, will be looking to whip one of these out for myself this weekend!
Wow!... and "HOT DOG"... You had me glued (no pun intended, or if you prefer, pocket-holed) to your video and laughing at the same time. There are so many things going on at different levels in your video: Woodworking and Testosterone Testing, all at the same time! Who could imagine such a ground breaking thing! Then your easy delivery and presentation with its subtle humor. And last but not least, your workspace. Seriously, though, and speaking of being glued, I noticed you didn't glue any pieces together even though you used pocket holes, so was there any reason you didn't use glue, was it to save costs? (And I can see keeping glue off the top piece would make it easier to replace the top if desired.) Also, and this is something that immediately caught my mind's eye (it has one eye I've learned): You built what looks like a very solid and sturdy worktable out of a single sheet of plywood which is terrific and amazingly efficient. Now I haven't looked at the dimensions yet, but I was a bit nervous about saw KERF. I was thinking that not accounting for the saw blade KERF can throw off the dimensions by the same amount (the KERF amount)... So I was just wondering, did you take into account saw KERF with the dimensions (see my UPDATE below) ? But as that famous Popiel's Pocket Fisherman's commercial would say, "But wait... There's more!", I noticed your work-space was rather constrained... but still functional... Looks like the size of a small garage... So can you elaborate on how you put your workspace together and what's in it (perhaps you have a video on that) ? Overall, I am impressed and entertained by your video and think the project is great! I look forward to your other videos as well. Thanks for the great video and entertainment all at the same time.
UPDATE: I reviewed your plans and yes indeed, there is sufficient scrap space for blade KERF (using as much as a 1/8" KERF) as long as cuts are accurate to your dimensions. A very efficient use of an 8 x 4 sheet of plywood, I must say! Great Project ! Great Video and impressive skill with woodworking and the video!
There’s usually room in the Home Depot parking lot to cut down plywood (never tried it though, usually I can track down an employee qualified to use the panel saw in less than an hour). But the Menards parking lot…not a chance.
Hotdog, thanks for all your honesty and helpful advice!
Loving that up front dust collection at 7:22. 😂
I didn’t hot dog cause I posted hot dog before the end hot dog. Hot dog.
Hot Dog, another great video! Thanks for sharing informative content with a bit of humor as well. I had a single 15 amp outlet I was working with until I had a 20 amp outlet installed and have not had any further issues since. I don’t have a workshop, I work on my patio that does not have a cover…
Hotdog, another great video! Thanks for give us confidence to try new things.
You can't make me say hotdogs.
Great video. I appreciated the point about not needing expensive tools.
John at Black Bear Forge said a similar thing,
Spend money on power when you finally need it for mass production.
Not to make a one off product.

Hot dog, great video;
My work bench will have some large wheels on the end for easy move that I re-claimed of an old lawn mower.
Much thanks.
