Project Information
I built this with my youngest Grandson Brantley aka "Goose", he turned 2 couple weeks back and I wanted build him a workbench for the shop & house for his size. He helped me with the framework and absolutely loves working in his PaPa's shop, so I needed something for him to grow into woodworking over the years.
I built the top from solid mahogany scraps that were too short to make the top linear, so glued them together, routed the edges & ran it through the Dewalt Planer. It was an opportunity to use my glue-joint bit on my router table which I had no idea how it worked prior YouTube haha! The scraps were from the blue square bucket Goose is digging in.
Funniest thing was after finishing it and it being all pretty, I knew it would be a few minutes prior being put through sea-trials as we Navy guys call it. Goose took my favorite Ridgid drill and went to town on the top in Pic-3, haha. When he finished he said "look PaPa ..I did it!" lol lil rascal.
This summer we are going to build two Roubu woodworking tables for my oldest (4) Grandson Logan aka "Monkey" and one for Goose too.
