ZekeB Posted August 27, 2020 Report Share Posted August 27, 2020 Hello, Been a while since I've posted. I've been behind the scenes watching all the projects. Always great info. We moved and I have a lot more space now to invest in a more ergonomic setup. I designed a workbench on how I like to build guitars and thought I'd share it since I've spent about the same amount of time on it, lol. Its a small work surface with interchangeable surfaces on all dimensions so you can alter the top to be what you want. I really just intended for one originally but it just worked out this way. It's also adjustable height from about 35" to 60" or so. I'm kind of tall so its very comfortable to me. I find myself using this feature more than anything besides the clamping system. The grid system is based on a clamp for dovetail channels. Couldn't decide between t-track or this which is why I made the interchangeable surfaces. Anyways, here she is. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizman62 Posted August 27, 2020 Report Share Posted August 27, 2020 Now that looks like a seriously versatile workbench! So many ways to attach the workpiece no matter what the shape or size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottR Posted August 27, 2020 Report Share Posted August 27, 2020 Very cool Zeke, and good to hear from you again! SR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonMay Posted August 27, 2020 Report Share Posted August 27, 2020 Very cool work bench. If you can't work on a project with a bench like that then keep it in the garage, and put it on jack stands. Great job. I could use this to clamp my brain when I change my mind. Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistermikev Posted August 27, 2020 Report Share Posted August 27, 2020 I hate it when people make pretty workbenches... but only because I'm jealous. looks very nice and tidy, good job. I should have thought of height adjust for my bench because even tho it's 34" tall... I freq find it's not tall enough and my back really bothers me. Something to consider for next time. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
komodo Posted August 28, 2020 Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 Hey Zeke, nice to see you back! And would you just look at that. Love the torsion box design. Should be really stable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZekeB Posted August 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 thanks guys. Haha, yes its a pretty bench. I told myself I'd just get it done but I guess I just like pretty things, and I had some oak and its a slippery slope from there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonMay Posted August 28, 2020 Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 @ZekeB, Next time I get stopped I'm going to use that. Officer : Why did you do it?" Me: " I had some oak. " It is a pretty bench. Ron 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
