You're exactly the right height - because your feet *just* touch the ground! 😀
All credit for this wisdom goes to my grandfather ...
Workbench builds never get boring.
Alcohol may help with the end grain but I found that too much alcohol tends to make measurements incorrect and adds to pieces being too short no matter how many times you cut them.
The wood you used is so good looking and I think a solid top on this piece would make a beautiful island in a kitchen.
Take care,
jack

Блин! Этот верстак настолько прекрасен, что на нём жалко работать! Он должен стоять в музее!
It’s like watching New Yankees Workshop circa 2023! Excellent!
I like the fact that you are telling us what you are doing but the why. Sometimes makers are writing recipes without giving the reason for the instruction. Your projects have such a good blend of power and hand tools.
That work bench is going to be around for many decades, Matt. Congratulations
Another gorgeous bench for the ages. Sobering to realize these will probably still be in use two or three hundred years from now!
3:52 Matt flipping these slabs with that "why don't you just go and play with your toys in the shop then?" "MAYBE I WILL!" post marital fight energy
It's too beautiful! I'd be terrified of scratching it...
Woodwise, Brad has excellent taste.
A bench that you can beat the crap out of, but still love!
While I’m thinking of it, do any other Aussies think that Matt’s black and white portrait resembles one of Rodney Rude from back in the day?
This is the nicest bench I have ever seen and is soo much
His great grandkids will still be using that bench, it's a beast!
For something "basic" it pretty sure looks dang good, Matt!
Hi Matt. Ex pat Aussie Electrician here. Live in US for 20yrs. In Metric countries especially in trades & engineering we would never say 13.3 cm. We would always say 133 mm. or 133 'mill'. Everything is in mm even if measuring the wing span of an airliner. Just one more reason why metric is superior 😂
Just my way of poking the folks who say metric is better because it’s easy to convert units 😉
That went together far easier than I'd anticipated. Some sweet bits of wood and nicely showcased with a Mr Chickadee outro.
Time to upgrade the drill press!
I Know if I did a split top, I would constantly be dropping things through the middle ;) Beautiful bench!
Matt, Brad is one lucky guy to be able to get such a beautiful work bench!!!!
When I win the lottery I'll buy all that fancy equipment, till then I'll build the old school way!!!,,
That turned out awesome buddy!!.. one of these days I’ll replace my old workbench with one, gotta have goals right.. ha
Very nice. Simple, robust elegant, would love to have one. You make it all look too easy. I expect I would be repairing mistakes.
Now that's a bench! Very cool! Look forward to seeing the additions!
Fantastic build video, Matt!
Love the look. Of course, It's gonna outlast all of us 😂😂
One of these days I'll make up my mind and get to actually building a bench... Choices choices!! 😂
Great video. That is a substantial work bench. No chance of that moving on you.
Tthats some gr8 work. And the wright tools to do it with..getting ready to start my 1st one,
Never worked in my shop, it was just a place to store my tools till next job.
Thanks for the video. GOD Bless
Beautiful bench, lucky editor 😊
Hi 👋, Matt, A very nice job, Phil from the moulin
My favorite work bench has always been the last one I made!
Always enjoy your builds
Nice build, nice table
I used a tenoner and mortisers 50 or more years old in about 1986. Either way works. Though it's considered crude by some to even consider it, I would just use dominos, screws or bolts to make a bench and it will be as good as yours. Even cruder is mine which is solid and put together with lags and landscape timbers. I'm Neanerthal.
Very beautiful I’m now gonna build one for my shop
Yeah that's awesome my man...great skill and routers lol..those routers...really nice job...
Very nice, lucky Brad.
That is a THING OF BEAUTY!
I don't need one, but I want one. 👍👍
Best part is that it is "one of a kind!" Beautiful and well made - thanks Matt!
Ik u been busy w the house,shop etc..but glad to see u making build vids again i always get inspired by your work. Your one of the tops on yt for sure. 🫡
I might be a bit late to the party, but your video is the best one I've seen yet for how to construct this style of deck railing. Thank you so much! ❤
You are doing amazing job, i came here when a other youtuber mentioned you i love your work keep the work up
Thank you so much!
Man, this is super sweet looking!
That is pure elegance for a workbench, beautiful.
Matt... That finish really brings out the beauty of the wood! In my next house, I'm going to make a dining room table to match the chairs from one of your chair kits!
Looks worked on before it’s even moved into a shop! Beautiful!
Matt I really enjoy your videos I find them very relaxing . I've been a cabinet maker / high end trim carpenter for over 30 years and I find it very relaxing watching you do your builds. Your attention to detail is second to none . Thanks for the videos .
Mies van der Rohe said, "god is in the detail" ... but Matt runs a close 2nd? Or should this be, "and then there's Matt"?
Matthew please do not misunderstand what I’m saying.
I think you did an absolutely amazing job on building this workbench.
My question is why use such thick pieces of wood.
What you have built is not a workbench but a look at bench.
It’s to nice to scratch up and get paint on, again I think you built a piece of art. It’s to nice to use and it’s going to take 2-3 people to move it because it’s got to be heavy.
The top is only 3/4” thicker than mine; otherwise it’s identical. The mass makes it ideal for handtool work
@@mcremona
It just looks so massive.
That bench is to die for. Thank you for sharing this video.
Excellent Matthew !
Great work Matt...what a job..the trick is,a good brain,and great tools to get it done..40 years ago,,this is what i wanted..turning tools all my younger days,,dont give you much time...and your young yet,,,what a great start..with a shop like yours,,you can build anything made of wood...id say..enjoyed watching..you give my ideas..
Great job Matt! Someday I will finish my bench. Like Christopher Swartz said: “Workbenches are like lasagna, you don’t buy it, you build it”.
I learned new things Thanks and heard song birds I've never heard in the valley
Matt if woodworking is as relaxing and fulfilling as watching, I envy you, great job! and your barn shop is awesome.
You are a very strong man! I wouldn't be able to lift that huge circular saw, never mind use it. And the way you flip over those thick table tops...sheesh! Good job!
That bench is beautiful.
Super nice work as always.
GREAT project Matt. That's a piece of art that can be handed down through the ages! !! !!!
I'm sure Brad will appreciate that bench and you for many years to come.
I love the spalting in that top. That bench is beautiful.
The circular saw is obviously small. Lol. Fantastic build sir!
What a neat work bench (and good looking to boot). Brad will be very happy.
Andrew, I’m in Wooden Boatbuilding School! I’m constantly thinking about a good bench for my home shop. I’m all about this kind of content. I’m excited to watch the series. I hope to get some great ideas.
I’ve got a series on building a split top Roubo as well: ua-cam.com/play/PLHhXpsTf_LbrbsyAIPqmhhXV0aozwJbyv.html&si=WFoVAY_WKVPSqkBk
I am always amazed by how sharp you keep your chisels.
Way too beautiful to use.
Split tops are all fun and games until your favourite chisel rolls towards the split, falls and land on your concrete garage floor dinging your perfect edge.
Awesome workbench Matt. Your client will no doubt be thrilled with it. Additionally he has a video to show how it was created.
Really nice looking kits!
Beautiful workbench and so easy to follow your video. Can't wait to see the final completion of your home and I'm sure your wife loves everything you have done to it.
I love that we are both still hanging onto the same Ryobi drill press! Looks like you need to do the same as me and turn some new handles for the depth levers!
GREAT video Friend!!
See ya again soon!!
Oh man. Our Mpls home has a 100 year old boulevard maple w tons of burls. If it ever has to come down, I'm 100% reaching out to you for cutting/drying!
Matt, Congratulations mate. It is beautiful !! If Andre Roubo could just see it !!
That's amazing you built your bandsaw from scratch!
that looks fantastic
Nice slabs!
Nice informative video, as always. Did Brad help off camera or did he just watch and hold the "light"? Also, can I come over and film you making MY workbench? LOL. Beautiful wood. All those off cuts and thick extra pieces would make nice bowl blanks.
Beautiful and amazing!
Love the vans paired with the big a&& saw
Nice looking work bench Matt.
It's almost too nice to work on! I'd like something like that in my kitchen: you could make it really French Provencal!
another inspiring video. starts me thinking about building my own workbench. I have the lumber your details help solve/decide how to handle the joint and over all problems.
Superb video on the construction of a (basic) split top Roubo workbench! All aspects of the build , from milling of the raw lumber using amazing machinery to the subsequent hand tool processes were great to see and learn from. Future proposed content relating to additional features that can be incorporated in the build will be great to see too. Thanks so much for providing this video- it is most inspiring and highly informative too for those of us interested in joinery and cabinet making!
Such a pleasure watching you work your magic!!
I’d love to see a photo of that 6” surfacing cutter!

Magnificent . . . one day I would like to produce a smaller version
Many thanks - looking forward to the rest of the series.
Hi 👋, Matthew , I have picked up a vintage Roubo , they only wanted £50 for it, with wood vice screws, in the process of cleaning it up,
Beautiful job as expected! And, I agree! Glue makes everybody feel good. I put it on everything.
Someday in the future, Brad will be telling his grandkids how he cut down a tree and used handsaws, scrub planes, winding sticks, jointer planes and chisels to make that workbench by hand.
That’s what I would do.
Love me a good Roubo build! 😎 Hopefully some day I'll have a space where I can have one myself.
It was nice to have a very basic build showing just the standard platform instead of all the doo-dads from the get go. Looking forward to the rest of the series.
Beautiful bench. You and Brad nailed this!
Great looking work bench Matt! Thanks for sharing it with us!💖👍😎JP
41:59 Sanding things into square is treated as a dirty little secret, but it shouldn’t be. I’ve suggested this a few times to people who were worried about the fence on their shooting boards and didn’t have a shoulder plane: just take a square stick of wood, glue sandpaper to it and sand your fence square, no need for expensive tools - and no need for adjustable fences that might move. Real light bulb moment for some, as it was for me.
Great work
Great looking workbench Matt…. The grains make it pop I like the look much better than my rough cut maple benches that I made
Beautiful job well done! Thank you for sharing! 👌
Excellent!
Solid work bench 💪 😂😂
Love it keep it up as always 💘
Lucky Brad!
Great episode! Thank you!
