In art school, on my first day at a drawing class, my professor asked us to open our brand new sketch books and draw a large X on the first sheet. This was to take away the stigma of the virgin quality of the paper; it was meant to be drawn on, explored! This may sound sadistic but you should place a hammer blow on the bench top to exorcise the fear of damaging it. You are a brilliant designer and a master craftsman. Keep up the good work!

[@jerryhoogeveen]

I was so worried about damaging the top when I built my bench that i was scared to use it for a while. Made it completely useless. Then, one day a chisel slipped and took out a chunk of the top. I was sad at first but then happy because I couldn't actually use the bench! Good advice here

[@markswenson1194]

Terrible advice! Let it happen organically. Work like you work because, although your woodworking might appear otherwise, you're not perfect, and it will happen at some point. In the meantime, enjoy your creation, because it is a thing of beauty! Well done.

[@DamianDArienzo]

Considering he's already used it for months, I'm sure all is ok with him using it.

[@davekavanagh7599]

​@markswenson1194 actually that's a tradition among the old masters. Soon as you finish the bench, put a touch of damage on it, for this very reason

[@pedullastudio]

Ive certainly thought about it

[@ianbaker3678]

It's the second time I've spent the morning in my nightshirt watching this video, drinking coffee in a peaceful relaxing time of bliss, watching a true craftsman engage in his craft. Many thanks.

[@lloydlow727]

That is not just a workbench, that is a functional piece of art and engineering of amazing craftmanship!

[@Bob_Adkins]

You're not helping! :)

[@psychedelicgem]

Let's not go too far. Engineering is something very specific involving calculations using tertiary level physics and math. Let's settle on well crafted functional piece of art... E.g. there'd be less "we'll see how it goes" more "this has a safety factor of 3:1"

[@iancampbell9693]

@@psychedelicgem I respectfully disagree. I'm an aerospace engineer (32 years) and this piece is much better designed and built (IE, engineered) than most of the stuff we release.​

[@TsugaDors]

I'm an engineer too, he was basically doing engineering work in this bench. @@iancampbell9693

[@moleratical1232]

@@psychedelicgem You're thinking of professional engineers and their job duties. As such, you are not wrong, that does describe one form of engineering, but not the only form (goddamn engineers with their uber-literal takes on everything, and their binary thinking). Engineering has multiple meanings in and outside of the profession, however, even the ECPD defines engineering as: "The creative application of scientific principles to design or develop structures, machines, apparatus, or manufacturing processes, or works utilizing them singly or in combination; or to construct or operate the same with full cognizance of their design; or to forecast their behavior under specific operating conditions; all as respects an intended function, economics of operation and safety to life and property." And that bench definitely fits the bill.

[@nachtdiertje1972]

Man, every YT-er with "ultimate workbench" in it's title, has to change the title to "tried to make the ultimate workbench, but didn't succeed". What you've made is beyond an ultimate workbench and is an ultimate display of craftmanship and eye for detail. I can't imagine the amount of time, glue, sweat and tears, but man, be proud of this piece of art.

[@ortana-v2]

100% agree

[@christophermcklveen5964]

Was going to say the same exact thing!

[@Hirokiji]

I'll admit it's a great piece. But they say a craftsman is only as good as his tools. If he had done this without his Cad style sketches to copy from, then this would really be a masterpiece.

[@KGB908]

@@Hirokijiyou say that as if the CAD software he is using isn’t a tool that requires skill and craftsmanship to use? Using CAD is equivalent to mastering and simplifying pencil and paper design. Kind of a bozo take to say using CAD diminishes this project in any way.

I have been woodworking since the late 60's and this is the most impressive woodworking bench design and build I have ever seen. Truly the "Mother of all Benches"!! Not only was it a build that I will never forget, but it truly can become a new standard for many to emanate for years to come. You have truly built something that many strive for but never achieve. I just feel fortunate to have viewed this video and experienced what it documented. Cheers my friend ...

I've spent years on KZbin, countless, and I mean countless hours of watching videos on woodworking. On the videos I love and appreciate, I can say I always leave a positive comment. Then I came across this video. And I have to say, for the very first time in my life, I'm actually left speechless. To call you a "woodworker" would be an understatement. To call you a "craftsmen" would be an understatement. Sir, this is a thing a beauty. And I hope this video lives on forever. I hope it's recognized all over and gets published in magazines.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and showing off your talent to the world. I'm sure some people will think this is "over the top" for a workbench, but personally I can fully relate to why you would want to not only show off your skills to potential clients, but also make a tool that you do the work with and a tool you enjoy using on a daily basis. Well done sir, you are a true craftsman.

[@petenelson8136]

Oh my God, this was absolutely mesmerizing. I watched the entire build in at regular speed (I usually watch things at 2X speed). Your artistry and attention to detail is outstanding. I'm getting back into woodworking after a 20 year hiatus, and looking forward to making some fine furniture. My definition of fine furniture just got blown out of the water seeing what you did with your bench, and the other pieces you've built. I plan on teaching my grandkids (oldest of 8 is now 11 years old), and would love to be able to make even a fraction of what you can do and pass that along to them. You got a new subscriber here, and I'm looking forward to learning more techniques from watching how you design and build your pieces.

An artifact with little to no form is a mere commodity devoid of humanness.

[@richs5422]

The brass rods in the moxon vise might be a weak point. You may wish to consider hardened stainless steel rods to resist the high bending force, attaching them to the moveable face of the vise with hardened steel shoulder bolts that go through the rods and then a fair way into the moveable face. This joint needs to resist a large amount of torque.

[@moonlightsnowfall6734]

From the design of the old Disston hand saws to the Studley tool case, woodworkers have always expressed their love of craft in their tools. Design doesn't detract from our tools, it improves everything we do with them. You've done a beautiful job with your bench, and I learned a few things along the way (as I am sure you did.) Thank you, and congratulations on a job well done!

[@Dovetail-Artisan]

The form and function of your bench is to PERFECTION! there are too many details I love to comment on. The chamfer legs with burl veneer is easy on the eyes. The slight arch on the bottom rail is gracefully done. The chamfer around the shark dovetails really punches out the detail. My most favorite statement you make is "if you take pride in the shop tools and furniture, you can sure bet you will take pride in every piece that comes out of it. Pride is all I get out of watching this, you are a true Craftsman my friend. Blessings, Brian

I knocked together a rudimentary workbench today. I came inside ate quickly and opened KZbin... Oh look!! a bench video.....

[@avalerionbass]

I'm not even a wood worker, and I watched the whole thing! NEVER be apologetic about pushing your skill to it's absolute limits, even if it's an intellectual exercise. I feel like a large part of our history for craftsmanship focused around ornate and extravagant artistic expression, and only recently have we focused on absolute bare minimum build quality. This utterly inexcusable work of art embodies that highest degree of expressionism and functionality, and it was a PLEASURE to watch. A true master of the craft!

This is absolutely inspirational. The awe it evokes, causes one to chase after his/her own goals. I just happened to click on your video, and this is about to shift my paradigm. Thank you, sir, for your hard work, time, dedication, and being meticulous in your work.

there are many, many videos of how to build workbenches...not one of them comes close to this. This is art, thank you so much for taking the time to make not only the bench, but the video to show us. Your skill is at a level I will never achieve since that is not really my goal, but in the same way I can appreciate the world's best athletes, or artists, or musicians...I will appreciate what you do.

I wept. I'm 49, and only started getting into woodworking about six months ago. Even if I eventually get good enough to create something this amazing, I'd only get a few years of use from it. But just knowing that this exists makes me happy. Actually, that's not quite right: knowing that a human wanted this to exist, and had the capability to bring it into reality, makes me happy. It's the same kind of joy and awe I get from seeing an expertly-written bit of code, or a world-class circus artist, or reading a book that shows me something different every time I come back to it, or getting to the end of a Hannah Gadsby show and appreciating the final twist that ties the whole thing together. Thank you for making this, and thank you for taking the time to show it. I'll be getting inspiration from this for years.

Watching this for the second time after I am nearly through with my first workbench build from some construction timber and an old kitchen workplate. After my experiences building I can appreciate the perfection applied to this build so much more. I love it

A truly beautiful piece of work. The workbench is at the heart of creation and deserves as much respect as the tools used in every piece. My heart skipped a beat when I thought you were going to paint it white. To me, it is more beautiful than any work that could come from it simply because it is more than just a workbench. Its purpose are many, yet it retains the beautiful lines of an elegant piece of furniture. A credit to your skill.

I love watching crafsmen. Today you demonstrated for me and many others how you have taken that humble title to the level of "Master - Craftsman". What's more enjoyable is that you're still a young man I love your passion, dedication and attention to detail, with this bench you've created a working wonder. it's been a truly beautiful experience to watch you work and so awesome to be able to sit here and appreciate your deep and complete love for your chosen profession. Thank you and I wish you a long, safe and fulfilling journey on to creaing even greater pieces of beauty.
