Yes I have another black eye, its from Jujitsu training not the pub lol.
Good to see you're still getting some during the Christmas period!
Merry Christmas mate and thank you for the video!
Nice bench! Take care & stay safe.
Super design. Just exactly what is needed in a work bench. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes.
great instruction. From experience you can drill the bace of the bridal and then when you cut the sides the bulk of the waste will fall out. then you just have a little waste to remove with the chisel. traditional mortises are cut first, that way the tenons are easier to fit to the mortise. I am thoroughly enjoying your style. all the best Michael
I enjoy your non-fussy approach. That bench is made for work ! Not a piece of furniture 👍
Glad you like it!
Good work 👍👍👍👍👍
Excellent. Thank You. So this will follow my shed extension to accept a lathe = “lathe room” 🤣 (5’x5’ add on). Anyway did you start with 12 x 4x2’s please? Thank you 🙏
This is one that I missed due to Christmas business. Can really see the difference in your workshop now. Amazing bench, would also look good in country style kitchen :)
So glad I've found a video using cls (construction timber) so handy! Going to be making mine from cherry with a few changes but I plan on it keeping for many years, appreciate the video
Glad it was helpful!
Nicely done again John 😁👍. Surprising how much the aprons increase the rigidity of the bench, very impressive 😁. Great concept, great value, if my shop wasn't so small I would start making one tomorrow 🙁. Great vid. Have that well deserved beer 🍻. Happy Christmas 🎅👍.
Happy Christmas and a happy New year Frank
Jesus... you sleep less than I do. Thanks for the reply mate 😁👍.
Amazing! Really appreciate your instruction and down to earth approach! Many thanks👍
Thank you!
up late,watching this,gonna make a workbench in new year,have it all planned out,8x4 so you can guess what top is gonna be,but legs and frame is gonna be same as yours so this video helped me,especially my worries of using pine,as you know how bad it can be in ireland from yard. i will be putting massive dowels in all joints for strength and biscuit joints to align.
and have a very Merry Christmas to you and yours
Glad it helped, let me know how it goes. Happy Christmas and a happy New year
I'm looking to build a workbench for myself and have watched quite a few videos but I do like the nice simple but strong design of your benches, so I think this is the design I'll go for. One thing that struck me while I was watching you trenching the aprons on your miter saw was that if you only glue two of the boards together first then you could cut a dado straight through and glue the last one on afterwards to cut down on the chisel work, just a thought. thumbs up and subscribed.
I know Im randomly asking but does anyone know a method to log back into an Instagram account??
I somehow lost the password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me.
@Ares Vincent Instablaster ;)
@Casey Myles i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Casey Myles it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my ass !
@Ares Vincent Happy to help :)
Thank you. Great job.👍
You could drill out the waste for the bridal joint!
John well done brilliant neat and you know your stuff you reminded me of my great Caribbean joiners and cabinet workers well done bro
Thanks 👍
Fantastic video mate, really helpful. I must confess to a little chuckle at 32.30, all the best mate
O my god , I love to have a bench like this one for my beginner woodworking 🙄 .
Awesome job on those benches. I’m surely going to copy that tool drop on my next bench. Cheers!
Thanks Dan, glad you like them
Nicely done, thank you ✅👍
No problem 👍
Great bench John. Need to rebuild my main workbench with my shop coming back together and I'll be doing this one.
Nice! glad it was helpful
Happy Christmas
Many happy returns
Great stuff.. nice project..
Big like!👍👍👍👍👍✅💪Felicitări! Great video 👍
Good man John, you could turn an aeroplane wheel on that! 👍
For a machine stand I’d skip hand planing and just screw down an MDF top.
With a hand plane you can get the surface flat and it is fun.
top rank mate, very informative.
I am off to copy it now.🐒
Very welcome
If you don’t have a band saw could you cut the bridal joint and mortise in the legs before you glue the 2x4s together? (Clamp them together to draw out the knock lines so they are aligned.)
Alri John.. Would u suggest going to a timber merchants for a better deal on the wood? I'm about to begin setting up my own workbench for a workshop in my garage.
What is the best surface for a tabpe saw?? Some ppl say Plywood has toi many imperfections, meaning it wouldn't be a level working surface so I was wondering which material was the best for buikding my own Table saw with the Router built in as an extra fitting.
The info for this build was excellent too man. Brilliant work John. 🛠
Hi John total novice here but think I'm having a mid life crisis and want to get into a bit of woodworking. Appreciate your help, can I make this with hand tools only (plus a pretty basic mitre saw/drill)? I have pulled together your beginner starter kit from another of your vids and wondering if this bench is achievable for a novice with limited gear/no band saw. Really enjoying the vids 👌
Nice one!!
Hi John! Hope you are well. Just wondering how you made / attached the tool well to the middle like that. My brain just can’t work it out without seeing you do it!!
John. Great build. Keep up the good work
Happy Christmas
John Cooper
Thanks John, Happy Christmas and a happy New Year to you
Great work John. Your next video should be installing a light in Andromeda 😂😂
I have to put a light over the lathe will that do
Hi John , great bench build, so simple yet solid looks great (subbed) so envious of your workshop lol best wishes from wet and windy wales ps have a small hardware shop called "The Shed" lol
Thanks man welcome along
Confused John. Even though the vids that say this makes sense. When cutting a mortice, by no means make you way to the cut line as you have to turn chisel round and use excisting wood to prize the undneath out. Go any near cut line and you bruise it. Can you make me understand.
I really enjoy the character this project had. And let me say I felt a bit guilty hearing you hand planed those 4×2 as I'm gonna use my table saw to rip the bevels off. I have the same leg style and they sire do take a beating. Cheers and be safe
Cheers A.J glad you enjoyed it
As you say top drop the top bar for the vice on the big bench can you show what holds the top up on either side as I see it the centre waste bit rests on the top bar only if you could show an end view underneath
Nice but very time consuming. It is much easier to cut the mortise before gluing the two boards (I think) using a power router and a little or no chiseling (13:00)
Hi John. I'm in the process of making the main bench like yours mate. What is the end vise you have please, i like that it has a dog too cheers
Is there a video on how you built the big workbench?
Could you use the right size fostner bit to hog out a lot of the mortice then finish with a chisel?
Hi John. Great bench!! How would I go about adding the tool well to it?
Also, is there a video to the build of your main bench?
Hi John, a quick question about your the size and supplier of your workshop..hoping to build in 2020 ..keep up the good work and Happy Christmas
Hi Tim it's 6m×8m and I got it from Steeltech sheds. Happy Christmas and a happy New year to you.
Moravian work bench sir….
just watched your handplane video and subbed. I was wondering though, do you not have a tablesaw? or a jointer...I believe you would call it a planer.
I had a table saw, restored it then sold it as I wasn't using it much and I have a planner/jointer which I use all the time. Thanks for the sub welcome along!
Some Waterford accent
🤣
