Workbench for a friend

Nicely built workbench. I like the grain pattern of the top.

I understand the hard time you had working with twisted, warped and bowed lumber. I appreciate your determination, commitment and patience in accomplishing the job successfully. You did great job.
Keep it up Kervin.

thanks for sharing.

Great job guys! I have been reclaiming all my lumber and have great satisfaction turning “useless” wood into timeless treasures! This bench will be both very useful, long lasting, and an excellent bench indeed!

Do you have any additional closeup shots of the top? when you make the second version please detail that part, lets see some nail holes!

Very nice; especially for a general purpose bench.

Looks nice and really sturdy as well.

Nice workbench. I was wondering about the feet, and how two seem to have angles cut on all sides and two with only two sides angled. If you prefer to call it simply a design element, then I’d accept that. ;)

Thanks guys.

He has already taken it to his shop, so I don’t know when I can get more pictures. I’ll see what I can do though.

oldskoolmodder, the legs were entirely his design. All four legs are the same. Three sides are cut at a 60 degree angle. the forth is left uncut. The uncut side was then placed facing the outside of the table along the long edge. Hopefully that makes sense, it is hard to explain.
