(from Lumberjocks.com)
So i've been wanting to build this bench for quite a while now. As i progress in my woodworking journey i find myself gravitating more and more towards hand tools and hand cut joinery. So i decided i needed to build my first “real bench” I did a lot of research and settled on this design from Chris from the Third Coast Craftsman, that incorporates the English Nicholson and French Roubo styles. I modified his design slightly to add my own spin and design elements. This maximizes the potential for workholding options and gives you several use case scenarios depending on the project you are working on. Adding the Vises, sliding deadman, and traditional as well as scandinavian holdfast adds to those possibilities. I still have to layout and drill all the dog holes in the top and i plan to add a few more features down the road.
