New-Fangled Workbench

After 25 years of woodworking, John White had yet to find the perfect workbench, so he decided to design his own. Instead of the traditional front and tail vises, this workbench incorporates pipe clamps into the top, the front apron, and the legs, and is designed to hold any size workpiece in the most convenient position for the job at hand. The bench is made of dressed Douglas fir with sacrificial MDF surfaces, and is assembled with drywall screws and lag screws.
