Vic Ash Work Bench

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


This is my work bench. It's made from construction grade F17 hardwood (Vic Ash). It's big and heavy, at just over 500 pounds. To deal with wood movement, the central core of the table (running lengthwise between the legs, and the end vise screws), is laminated MDF and Birch Ply. I then used half inch strips of Vic Ash as a “veneer” on the top and underside of the bench.
I've been using it for almost one year, and its been excellent.
I rarely need to move it, but when I do I use a car jack and a set of dollies. I use this method for moving all my shop machinery.
