    This Roubo Workbench is one of the most complex pieces Ive ever made and by no means was that intentional. I though it would be done in a matter of weeks yet it took two and a half months of non stop construction. Not to mention the amount of time planning and editing. But all the features turned out as I'd hoped if not better.
    This bench takes full advantage of the standard tail vise and leg vise but also incorporates a moxon vise, shoulder vice and pattern makers vise, as well as a pop up gap stop and a hidden wheel system which isn't common on a bench like this.
    Even though this workbench is quite over the top, as mentioned in the video this bench was an exploration of ideas as well as an enjoyable process in which I'll always remember. Shop furniture doesn't always have to be quick and to the point, it can also be an experience.
    One of my main objectives with this bench is to hopefully trigger ideas within yourself to maybe incorporate into your own workflow .
    As always thank you so much for your support here on UA-cam. The fact that you even watch my videos means I can continue to make more unique builds and share them with you.

    In art school, on my first day at a drawing class, my professor asked us to open our brand new sketch books and draw a large X on the first sheet. This was to take away the stigma of the virgin quality of the paper; it was meant to be drawn on, explored! This may sound sadistic but you should place a hammer blow on the bench top to exorcise the fear of damaging it. You are a brilliant designer and a master craftsman. Keep up the good work!

      I was so worried about damaging the top when I built my bench that i was scared to use it for a while. Made it completely useless. Then, one day a chisel slipped and took out a chunk of the top. I was sad at first but then happy because I couldn't actually use the bench! Good advice here

    Nick has never failed to deliver on anything he has started on and along the way surprises me with his creativity and ingenuity with wood. Hope to watch him grow as a wood worker and create so many more delightful pieces.

    I've only been woodworking for a couple years just for a hobby, but the more I do the more I love it. One day I will start my own business. This video is so well done man, your explanations and editing are top notch. I can't put out anything nearly as detailed as you but I'm trying lol thank you for the inspirations. I built my first Bench last year with no hardware. It's not perfect but I love it lol 10/10 brother. Great work!

    This type of video is why things like UA-cam and Patreon can exemplify the best qualities of human behavior. I just got to spend 45 minutes watching a master at his craft, learning, growing, and pushing boundaries. A craftsman should honor his tools, and you have done that here in spades. Bravo.

    Absolutely incredible. I remember as a kid helping my dad build a workbench that I still use today some 20 odd years later. Although it’s nowhere near the level of this work bench masterpiece you’ve created, there’s something to be said about taking the time to create a workbench that will be used and admired for decades to come. Looking forward to future projects you build using this workbench. Keep up the awe inspiring work!!

    I wept.
    I'm 49, and only started getting into woodworking about six months ago. Even if I eventually get good enough to create something this amazing, I'd only get a few years of use from it. But just knowing that this exists makes me happy. Actually, that's not quite right: knowing that a human wanted this to exist, and had the capability to bring it into reality, makes me happy. It's the same kind of joy and awe I get from seeing an expertly-written bit of code, or a world-class circus artist, or reading a book that shows me something different every time I come back to it, or getting to the end of a Hannah Gadsby show and appreciating the final twist that ties the whole thing together.
    Thank you for making this, and thank you for taking the time to show it. I'll be getting inspiration from this for years.

    Wow, this is indeed a bucket list bench. There is nothing about this bench that is overkill. We need to be reminded that what we do as creative humans is as much about the object that we create as it is how it is created. You good sir are a reminder to me that I can and need to spend time to create the rools that I need to aid in my creativity. Thanks for the reminder as I embark on rebuilding my workshop over the next couple of months!

    Oh my God, this was absolutely mesmerizing. I watched the entire build in at regular speed (I usually watch things at 2X speed). Your artistry and attention to detail is outstanding. I'm getting back into woodworking after a 20 year hiatus, and looking forward to making some fine furniture. My definition of fine furniture just got blown out of the water seeing what you did with your bench, and the other pieces you've built. I plan on teaching my grandkids (oldest of 8 is now 11 years old), and would love to be able to make even a fraction of what you can do and pass that along to them. You got a new subscriber here, and I'm looking forward to learning more techniques from watching how you design and build your pieces.

    My man, you are an inspiration to me and I would expect, anyone that works with wood. Your workbench is a piece of art in itself. The level of craftsmanship is off the chain. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and showing off your talent to the world. I'm sure some people will think this is "over the top" for a workbench, but personally I can fully relate to why you would want to not only show off your skills to potential clients, but also make a tool that you do the work with and a tool you enjoy using on a daily basis. Well done sir, you are a true craftsman.

    • @richs5422
      @richs5422 7 місяців тому +3

      The brass rods in the moxon vise might be a weak point. You may wish to consider hardened stainless steel rods to resist the high bending force, attaching them to the moveable face of the vise with hardened steel shoulder bolts that go through the rods and then a fair way into the moveable face. This joint needs to resist a large amount of torque.

    Nick it's not overkill in any way , I'd say for a perk of being a perfectionist by nature , I remember watching Matt Estlea's Burtha Build in 2017 if memory serves which is a beautiful piece of work , nobody had really touched on the Roubo Bench before that on YT, but after watching this Build of yours pal , it shows what many years of hard work and graft can evole into especially when looking at something to fit ur specific needs and the time spent in its final creation , the effort and perfectionism that you have infused into what can only be called artistry shows in spades the direction your craft is going pal.
    The algorithm God's only a week or so ago popped u on my feed and I've finally got to watch ur Build in full haha , and now one has the joy of watching ur other 20 videos u have made .
    I'd love to support u on Patreon pal but I'm in the UK fella and we can't afford to keep ourselves warm with the cost of living at the moment lol , but hopefully one day pal , until then I'll have to gleam some knowledge from yourself and your truly amazing talent Nick , please keep up the jawdropping work , I'm so looking forward to watching ones back catalogue and waiting for more to come haha. 👍👍👍

This video is absolutely jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring, dozens of levels above what I haven't even dreamed about. Thank you for creating this masterpiece. Pedulla Studio is definitely now at the top of my youtube woodworkers list. Thank you for sharing your amazing skills and techniques with slobs like me!
