Even with the short legs and the woodie, it is a sweatathon this time of year. There were a lot of water breaks getting to this point.
I can't say I'm in the short rows but just four small back spindles and a crest rail to go before fitting it all together.
BTW, the little portable bench is amazing. Solid as a rock, perfect height for planing, and the wood screw leg vise holds better than any vise I've used. It is a joy to work on.
I haven't heard from the woodstore about the Ash for the new bench but Lake Erie Toolworks emailed the wood screw for the vise is on the way. We are only a couple of weeks away from the Oregon trip so even if the Ash shows up next week I don't expect the bench will be finished before the middle of Oct. or latter.
See you guys on down the road,

I guess the good news is that it will be cooler to work when the ash comes in.

Joe,
ReplyDeleteI hope by then it has cooled. This Summer has been brutal, I usually don't complain too much about the heat as long as it stays below 105*F.
