Building the laminated top for the new Wood By Wright Workbench. this will be a hybrid bench for my hand tool woodworking heeds. It is made from white oak and walnut. This will be a Roubo bench with a skirt like a Nicholson bench or English Workbench. It will have 3 vises. 2 will be a leg vise and one face vise that will act as a Moxon vice or wagon vise. and on top of all of that, it will have a live edge skirt.

![Watch me BUILD this beautiful WORKBENCH…[2 Month Timelapse]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ob-nEWnTTWI/mqdefault.jpg)
Literally BLOWN AWAY by the work, all by hand, that you do James. You're incredible...To bad with three children you can't go and sleep for 2 days to rest; amazing....rr
LOL it looks like a lot more work then it is. just a lot of fun.
Thank you so much for your videos. Your positive attitude is contagious. I am a combat Veteran and work at a VA Hospital in Mental Health where I am constantly faced with helping other Veterans articulate goals for their own recovery. I believe woodworking is a great outlet for my own recovery and I hope to begin using some of your videos in my therapy groups to inspire others as you have inspired me in my novice attempts to create great things with wood. Keep it up, you are appreciated.
WOW! thanks. that is great. I feel the same there are few things as relaxing and comforting as a perfect curl. If there is anything I can do to help with that please let me know! I am in love with this idea!
You’re such a likable guy. You seem so genuine. Love your videos!!!
Thanks man. That means a lot.
I am humbled watching you work the wood with hand-tools alone, starting with raw stock. You combine many formidable craft skills, each requiring many years of learning. This is the NFL of Woodworking... we have all dabbled, but most of us can only watch from afar and admire. Subscribed.
LOL thanks, but I only started with hand tools about two years ago. you can go back and watch the first videos from when I started, and see the whole learning curve.
That's impressive. I could spend 20 years and I doubt I could do what you are doing. I will definitely go watch all your videos, some of the best on the internet for a guy interested in getting started. PS: I am 61 yrs old, late bloomer ; )...
That is going to be one beautiful bench. The dovetails and live edge just sets it off, absolutely beautiful my friend you're doing a great job.
just wait till I get carving!
Wood By Wright I can't wait.
Finally, I don't feel like such an idiot when I'm sitting on my work and taking every angle possible to square the ends of a project with a plane! That, and standing 5 feet in the air trying to saw tenons for a bridle joint from a board that is 6 ft long. The bench is awesome coming together. Must see RUclips this summer.
+Travis Reese thanks Travis. You got to do what you got to do. Lol. And besides, there is no "right" way.
You’re hardcore! I’m flattening my bench top today, took a couple swipes with the number 5, then picked up my router 🤣 I admire your dedication to only using hand tools for the build!
LOL it takes a cretin kind of stubbornness. LOL
I'm about to build a workbench for the first time and these videos are a great resource that are really helping me to figure out what I might want in a work bench
Thanks man. Glad I could help
this is the first video of yours ive seen and i gotta say its cool seeing someone using no power tools in this day in age
thanks Evan. that means a lot. I do like to slow down and have fun with the wood. let me know if there is anything you want to see.
Thanks for replying James, I've just finished my second year of bench joinery at college, my final college piece of work was a small cabinet, could be interesting to see you do some cabinetry work.
Beauty of a bench and I didn't know till now, hands on hand tools, gots ta rub it. I'm betting it will be around, "Hernia"..love that nick name.it will be around for many moon cycles !!
thanks Barton
I think there is a secret jointer/thickneser lurking in the garage ! Or are you just crazy, that's some serious planing!
I do have a hand power planer that I use on some projects, but I wanted this one to be all hand tools.
First off love the show. You must have the patience of a saint to do what you do. Have you thought of using the oak and walnut off cuts to laminate the chops for your leg vices? you could glue them up to mimic the top itself. dark-light-dark.
just a thought have a great day and keep up the great work.
thanks. I am hoping for a solid piece I might be getting, but if not that is my plan for it.
I love the look of that bench with the live edge.
thanks Jesse. that means a lot!
great job James this bench looks like its going to be a winner bring on the next part.
thanks Opa! really looking forward to using it for years to come!
My hats off to you for using hand tools. Great work.
thanks man. it is so much fun!
Hey James, nice video! Since you encourage to share thoughts, I have an idea for you about your panel gauge. A small rabbet will make working with panel gauge much easier, you will be able to slide it along the edge. However, you won't be able to rock it and pin height have to be adjusted.
I have old one with pin sharpened more on two sides so it has kind of knife and it works beautifully. I find it easy to use since you don't need to control that part of movement and it's easier to just press it against the board.
thanks. I have one like that as well and I really enjoy that for cross grain situations but for Anytime running with the grain I prefer to use a pin as opposed to a knife much like I do for a marking gauge. Some people do like that shoulder On the fence side but I find it tends to get in the way as I like to Pivot the mark One Direction or the other depending on which way I'm going. But each their own Everyone likes something different.
That might be me not understanding pin gauges :) I tend to use slitting gauges or wheel marking gauges. Will see how it work out on my bench build from oak!
@@akshi_az wheel or knife gauges can follow the grain some times. where as a pin will ignore the grain and cut strait. I use to use my wheel gauge all the time, but found my self reaching for the pin gauge more often. Just a personal preference.
James, I am in the planning process of building my second workbench ( I am downsizing my workshop in a "retirement workshop". I am in the process of learning hand woodworking. I enjoy learning from you and I am gaining confidence by learning from you and making lots of "practice dovetail joints" ! I think I am ready to fly solo now and give it a try !
Sweet! looking forward to seeing what you make. do not expect perfection just enjoy the ride!
James...love the live edge. Hurt my back cutting down a tree and have been out of commission. Hope to put some vices on my bench soon and make some videos. Great job, can't wait to see the rest.
oh no fun! looking forward to seeing more videos you make
Amazing bench, you inspire me to use hand tools.. very nicely done.
thank you Gary. that is the best complement I could get. don't have too much fun!
At the beginning of the video I thought "man James works fast, he has everything done except installing the tail vise". Then I thought, "where did his old bench go?" After watching the video I realized it was there the whole time.
Nice bench by the way. I am working on a small 30-32 inch bench for my office. Too hot to work in the garage this time of here.
I am using Paul Seller's design, only much smaller, planning on using a Moxon vise on the front and was considering putting stretchers front and back. I liked your idea of putting a stretcher on the back and leaving one off the front. I need accessible storage under mine since my small office doesn't have much room for stand alone storage.
The bench looks great and keep up the great videos!
Also, quit hoarding all the pillar drills!
thanks. and lol I just picked up two post drills for $20 each. what a steel!
Nice laminate, it's nice to see you using the draw knife
I love playing with that. I can't wait to make a shave horse to play more with it.
I think about a live edge shave horse, according to your new bench and taking advantage of the grain pattern for the horse's head. You can even carve it, not decoratively but in sculptural form. People will talk about this. If you take the idea and you can, remember to give me some credit for it :) Regards
looking good 👍
I really love the live edge. Can't wait to see what you have in mind for the rest of this build.
thanks Neil. you and me both. really looking forward to the carving!
Bench envy! Love that walnut live-edge skirt! Going to be a great bench.
thanks! I am looking forward to carving it!
That is one BEAUTIFUL bench top! Interesting concept of the floating end chop. I did a draw -bored mortise and tenon with a double split dovetail. Your method is certainly simpler. Will be interesting to compare over the next year or two as we go through annual movement. All-in-all fantastic work my friend.
thanks Michael. I will also be adding a wedged pin in the center later but that will make a fun video.
Man, that long looks like a lot of work!
but so much fun.!
Wood By Wright Yeah, I'm not knocking it... awesome job. I'm more of a power tool guy, but hope to develop some of those skills with hand tools.
Get good ole Cremona to hook you up with da chop parts! 😎
I thought it would make a good reason to make a trip up there.
That is going to be a beast of a bench. Looks great,.
Oh ya! LOL just Waite tell I add the carving!
Wood By Wright Then it will be way over the top. Your carving will add a lot.
I love watching your videos always love it when you upload a new video. I've been inspired to go full time and set up my own custom furniture business in the uk. thankyou for the inspiration and leasons.
that is cool. thanks for the encouragement. that really means a lot. there is little better than doing what you love and people paying you for it.
You should Come over to the netherlands with those shoes you feel like home
LOL yup.it is on my list some day.
Going to be a great bench James! Looking forward to see how you're doing the base.
Thanks man! really looking forward to doing the carving on this one!
Gorgeous work, Mr. Wright. I look forward to seeing it finished.
thanks. you and me both! I am looking forward to carving in it!
Coming along nicely James! 👍
thanks Fred. this is going to be a fun one!
Well done!
thanks man!
Your face is a patchwork of gorgeousness.
LOL thanks!
Beautiful bench top. Skillful work. Can't wait to see how you put the rest of it together.
Thanks paul. I am really looking forward to doing the carving on this one. it is going to be sweet!
Terrific bench build!
thanks Frank!
Exceptional craftsmanship-I learned a lot while viewing this... Thanks for posting.
Thanks. My pleasure.
Cool sawing bench too.
Amazing video, I just love the way you make it look so easy using the hand tools. I just love the look of the live edge too, it's just so natural looking and give that side of the bench an organic look.👍🏻big thumbs up James.
thanks man! I am looking forward to adding some carving to it. that will be the side that faces the camera for years to come.
I truly enjoy watching your woodworking there young man. Very Very nice bench, William
thanks William. just having fun in my woodshop. glad to see others like this too.
Great skills, patience and work ethic. Awesome and inspiring.
thanks Jimmy. I don't know if it is patience or stubbornness
Oh right I forgot modesty.
That looks amazing, really like the look of that live edge too!
-Caleb Harris
thanks Caleb. looking forward to bringing this to the next Skiatook.
Super cool. Really pretty.
thanks man!
Stunning work. I think that much work would make me need serious recovery time.
LOL it is a joy all the way!
Awesome video and the workbench is incredible beautiful work.
thanks Thom. just wait for the carving!
Wood By Wright I know it will be epic.
Wow James it's looking beautiful!
thanks man! I am looking forward to playing with it.
Wow, very impressive work.
thanks!
Not one power tool in sight, The Samurai Carpenter can learn from this.
LOL I have great respect for that guy. his carving is several notches above my own.
I might be able to bring you another piece of cherry for the chop of the leg vise. I've got a few more pieces in my shed. I'm headed your way early August.
oh that would be sweet! that is some nice wood for that work. that timing would be about perfect too.
Wood By Wright I'll go through what I have later today and send a message to you and some pictures.
that is crazy sweet man!
pretty fantastic, James! what an awesome build! the top looks beautiful!
+My Garage Woodshop just wait tell I add the carving.
Wright, this channel is an incredible inspiration. My dream is slowly becoming to build up an hand tool workshop like yours :)
I'll have to see if you have any video on the first few tools to get started. In the mean time, as a first project (perhaps not the best first project) I found some oak logs I'm going to try to make boards out of :)
Sweet. I have a few videos on making lumber from logs. And yes there is a video on first tools. Let me know if you have any questions. I would love to help.
@@WoodByWright Sorry if I didn't mention it but yes, I decided to do this ptoject after watching your videos on it :)
sweet. Looking forward to seeing what you make!
I love what you are doing with you bench! I am working my way through the videos. I love the live edge look. Awesome work!!
Thanks Jacob! I am hoping to finish it next week with the leg vices!
Wow... Your work with hand tools is inspirational! I love what you bring out in the wood stock, and really enjoy your energy!
Nice bench James.I must say all that Ripping wow I am thinking table saw lol
lOL where is the fun in a table saw!
Just recently stumbled into your channnel and subscribed after having watched 5 videos. Great work. And ur a great and relaxed narrator.
thank you. that means a lot!
This is gonna be a great build series James!
thanks Jeff. I am really looking forward to playing more with this bench.
Terrific work as usual! Man that's going to be a beast of a table. Now I know why I use power tools for these types of projects! :)
lol that is the fun part though! LOL
now you've just intensified my bench Building itch....awesome job, love the little details.
LOL that is always the problem. I am already thinking about my next bench. there is never a last one just the next one! lol
Nice shoes
thanks! best shop shoes you ca have. crazy comfortable and protective.
WOW!
thanks!
Gostei muito do seu trabalho, contínuo seguindo seus vídeos ative a tradução para português dos seus vídeos para eu poder acompanhar a cada um, obrigado!
obrigado. A tradução está em curso, mas não tenho o dinheiro a pagar para que o texto seja inserido. Isso seria em torno de US $ 25 de um vídeo. desculpa. Algum dia vou fazer o suficiente para fazer isso.
Amazing work man, looking forward the next episode.
thanks man!
Great job James. I am sure this heavy duty workbench is going to be so rewarding working on. Have you got a name for it yet? I own a 60+ year old bench made from beech. Its got a name. Given to it by a buddy of mine who helped carry it into my workshop. It's quite an appropriate name: "Hernia".
LOL I like the idea of a name. I will have to think on it.
The Old Timey Woodworker 😂 he must be a chef your friend. My knifes have names and so has my oven.
xander witt he is a graphic designer. Foresters used to name their saws with female names. I do that as well with my panel saws etc., that's probably why he thought my bench needed a name as well. Note: he only helped carry the top, not the frame else he might have named it even worse. lol. I'm curious about the names you gave your knifes. I hope non of them is called "the proximal phalanx dismemberer" or anything like that. 😉
The Old Timey Woodworker great.😁👍🏻 creative minds.
looking GOOOOD!
thanks man!
Love the live edge! :)
just wait for the carving
Looks awesome. Your work is an absolute inspiration. I'm totally looking forward to every new video you post. Thanks for your work and sharing it with us! :)
thanks! I am really looking forward to using this bench for years to come!
Nice!!
You just won another subscriber...
OMG, this is no Rock plane...(fun)..lol.... I have seen a couple of your vids,, know you only use "acoustic" ;-) and watching you I would think you'd be build like conan the barbarian. Can you tell me why you wouldn't used the frame saw to rip???? And if ya have time I would like to know your jointing plane and your low angle l o n g plane... Thank and you are out of your mind....(in a good way)
LOL thanks. thought it looks like a work out it really is not good for burning fat or building muscle. lol
I sometimes rip with the frame saw, it depends on how I feel. I recently built this saw bench and I like spending more time with it getting to know what it can do.
my jointer is a Stanley from the 1800s
and my LAJ is this one. amzn.to/2u4njAk
Nice, I have been wanting a 62. not to mention about 3 or 4 others planes. I would like to make a frame saw, bow, buck saw and many, many other tools like mallets, planes, etc etc to build my bench....but being disabled with out any income sponging of the GF parents makes me think it wont happen. I love your bench, thickness and that back skirt is neat too. And thank you for the answers.
looking good dood!
thanks man!
Hi there from Portugal,
Nice workbench top :D
Obrigado(Thanks)
+Blog das Madeiras thanks man.
Fantastic work
thanks man!
Such a great bench. I love that thing!
The only thing that is wrong in the picture is the watch. I think, as a handtool woowdworker you need a more traditional wind up watch on a chain.
Are you ever going to build a clock?
LOL I need to come up with a wind-up watch that will track my heart rate. LOL a wooden clock is on my list and will come some day. we will see though.
Awesome bench my brother i like it great job can't wait to see it done :)
thnaks TJ!
Wood By Wright
So the dovetails of the skirts are protruding past the main chunk of the benchtop? Therefore the endcaps are held only only by the skirts, and have no adhesion to the rest of the benchtop?
No there are also lag bolts holding it on. That way it can be replaced in the future.
So what job pays your bill, james? you seem to be enjoying this build way to much
LOL I am a stay at home dad. I chose this hobby because I can do it in the shop with my kids there. less noise, dust, and danger makes it a fun place for the kids too.
Speaking of spoke shaves, didn't you say you'd be doing a video on sharpening the convex and concave blades?
I plan to as soon as I get a con vex spoke shave. but i would do it just like sharpening a cutter for a 45 or 55
awesome, how do I sharpen a 45 or 55? :)
sorry I thought I posted that. here you go. ruclips.net/video/WZ3hO4UnNQM/видео.html
Hi mate I'm new to woodworking, quick question I have cherry, sycamore planks, and bit of som sapele n oak what are best varnish n oils etc to use nothing expensive some think just make it look nice n grain show thank you
if you are looking for a general finish (nothing extremely durable) I like BLO and Paste wax. here is a video on that. ruclips.net/video/KvSvmOwmNV8/видео.html for a more durable finish I like wipe on poly or Waterlox.
White oak and walnut is beautiful. What do you think about ipe and ash as a combo?
that sounds like a nice mix! nice and heavy too.
Great video. Did you say you were going to leave the dovetails proud? I really like the live edge. Thanks for sharing.
+Jeff Forbes I left the pin board proud so I can trim it back.
How do you keep the bit square when drilling with hand tools? Tips? Video? :)
That is a video I have coming up. here is an old video. ruclips.net/video/62y-Dib525c/видео.html
basically, I check that it is square with and then hold the knob at the same point on my gut. if it is out by a couple of degrees that is not a problem at all.
New subscriber, great job.
thanks. Glad to have you. if there is ever anything you want to see or know feel free to ask.
Nice looking bench. Do you have a link to that silicone bowl you used to mix the epoxy?
here you go. best things for mixing epoxy! amzn.to/2tIAwOQ
THE BEST HANDMADE BENCH ON RUclips BAR NONE!!!! Sorry to yell but it can't be helped! lol Keep up the Excellent work brotha'!
thanks, man. that means a lot. we will see when it is done and carved.
Wood By Wright
You're welcome sir. I have watched a LOT of bench videos in the last six months since I discovered that woodworking was a long lost passion of mine, and so far your channel is the BEST American hand tool channel (Paul Seller's channel is the best in the UK because he's Paul Sellers! LOL
I love watching your videos even though I use plenty of power tools. That looks like a tremendous amount of work and I really appreciate that you enjoy doing it with just hand tools. You, my friend, are a bad ass! I got tired and sore just watching it!
LOL thanks Kevin. it is far more fun than it looks. but I am a bit twisted! LOL
"yea so much fun, " (seedy laugh)
Every video haha wish i was this skilled though
I'm a new subscriber so I may have missed it but, why is the vise end cantilevered so far from the legs? Also, what do you think of the tool well in Paul Sellers' design? I'm trying to figure out the best configuration for a bench that I will build in the future and would like input from someone that knows what they are doing. Thanks!
I like to be able to sit at the end of the bench and put my legs underneath. Not to mention it it makes it easier to not have to have your legs for the bench near the screws and hardware for the vice. Some people really like having a tool well, I am not a fan of them. They just tend to collect junk and really don't serve any purpose that a flat surface would. But that's my personal preference. Everyone's a little bit different and some people really do like them.
@@WoodByWright Thanks!
I have a workbench build coming up in the not too distant future so this has loads of great ideas, thanks! Looking forward to hearing how the fancy leg vice goes. Two questions.... With the floating end piece that holds the dual screw vice, will there be too much stress on the dovetails with repeated workholding with dogs in the vice? Are there benefits to having a laminated top compared with a solid slab of timber (aside from a major cost difference!).... Is laminated more dimensionally stable? Thanks again for the great video!
+Darren B I will be adding other pin supports to the end cap, but that will be at the end. The lamination can be more stable if you chose the correct grain direction but the big thing is the price. If I had the money I would go solid slab. I hope to do that for the next bench.
James How do you determine the height of the work bench?
I went around the house with a board and a plane tell I found something that felt comfortable to work on. I do not like palm hight, as that forces me to bend over the work. but each to their own. find what is comfortable for you and go with it.
Awesome, what is the tpi on your vises threaded rods?
I believe the end vice is 8TPI
Love your work so the top is 5 feet long how wide is it ?
+Chuck Fiesler the final is about 22" thanks man.
James, how much would you guess that bench top will weigh? Great video here and I'm looking for the others asap. Have a great 4th and don't play with fireworks.
God Bless my friend.
thanks, Frank. just the top as it is now is around 220lb all told this bench will be around 350-400
How much time did 4:52 take!?
WOULD HAVE TAKEN ME 10 YEARS AND 10 DULL SAWS!
LOL that was the fast part as about 45 minutes. The planning and flattening work was the hard part.
Where do you get all of that lovely white oak?
most of it I got from a camp north of me and traded it for some work. others I got from a barn same for almost nothing. here is a video on where I get most of my lumber. ruclips.net/video/IHJrBbSpIkk/видео.html
How many hours did it take to get to that point?
I have about 20 hours or so into it so far.
As i say on Instagram, i like thise live edge.
also i like to use Oak. ;)
thanks. Oak is a beautiful wood.!
well...white oak is, anyway. i bought a lumber package last year for a good price that had a LOT of red oak in it. eventually , i just decided to use as much of it as possible to make a nicholson style bench. so sick of red oak and its nasty smell i'm trying to get rid of my remainders....
do you have a video on your saw bench?
here you go. ruclips.net/video/wP2YYKIxJ90/видео.html
Thank you
Were did you get the Vise kit???
+Hayley Anderson there is a link in the description or at least there should be. I am on the road or I would post it here.
Why isn‘t your right arm 10 times bigger than the left? 🤘
LOL if it is setup well it does not take that much force.
It's funny to see him use all hand tools while wearing a smart watch and bluetooth headphones.
The best kind of crazy!
You shoulda had you kids help you get your WB up the stairs.
LOL I don't want to crush them. but I am looking forward tot he day I can just tell them to move it!
