    Wow, a real work of art. Best bench I've seen to date.
    I love how you say you're new to wood working and then continue to build a masterpiece. Well done.

    RJ your comment about being "new" to woodworking is like the guy who said "I've never played poker before".

    Hello RJ, that's a fine bench. I like the large apron on one side and the sliding deadman on the other side. You've given me some good ideas as I prepare to start building my bench from a large stack of douglas fir I've been saving in the shop . Robert

    Gorgeous bench. I have been looking for good wood to build my next bench. I am staying away from construction lumber as it may still have to much moisture, which could lead to warping. I know you stated you are new to this, but watching you work and the tools you have definitely do not give that impression. Keep doing what you do. It is obvious you have a great affinity for wood.

    • @RJsShedShop
      @RJsShedShop  3 роки тому +3

      Thanks heaps, I did let the timber sit for months before use. I purchased a lot of the tools you see within the last 6 months so that I can take my passion to a higher level.

      Glad to, its 1700mm long, 750mm wide and 900 high. The bench top is 100mm thick, legs 140x120, rails and stretchers 140x 100. Hope that helps. thanks heaps for watching and subscribing.

    Just found your channel and am enjoying your videos. I’d recommend adding affiliate links if possible as you use a nice/wide selection of tools. For example, what kind of chisel plane is it that you used for the glue removal?
    Also, wondering how the splines on the ends have worked out since this was built. I’m wondering if the wood expansion was an issue or if this method helped keep things in check?

    • @RJsShedShop
      @RJsShedShop  Рік тому

      Thanks heaps, the bench did expand slightly, you can feel maybe .5mm difference if that. Overall I think it helps a lot and would certainly use this method again.
