(from Lumberjocks.com)
New work bench of reclaimed lumber.Base is mortise and tenon construction . Used 4×4 pine dunnage that I was given. Finished about 3-1/2ish once the twists and bows were milled out. The top is fabricated from salvaged oak joists – 3+ x 10+ x about 12' long.the oak and some fir timber's, I bought from a salvage company for $1.25 bf. The tool tray lifts out, for emptying shavings, debris etc and provides an option to fill gap to make a full top if ,as some have suggested, I tire of the tool tray becoming a catch all. Distance from the front edge to the front of the tool tray is 18. Tool tray is about 6 .
Still need to add leather to the leg vise. Have provision built in for a removable dead man. I have a Wilton quick release vise that I may install as a tail vise in the future.The top lifts off, if I ever need to move the bench.
