Roubo/Scandinavian Workbench - 13 Year Update!

[@doncanada1]

Your wooden screw building videos has really been an inspiration. Thank you.

[@TheWoodlore]

Glad to hear that, thanks for sharing!

[@Rufio1975]

Heck yeah man. I have those videos saved also.

[@TheWoodlore]

@ Awesome!

[@colinmeyer9974]

The content you made as a youngster on screw boxes and building your bench were top notch. I reference them all the time. I’m curious to see what content you’re going to be producing now.

[@TheWoodlore]

Wow, thanks for sharing that, it's encouraging and inspiring to me to hear that those 'old' videos of mine continue to impact others positively. I hope my new content continues in that vein.

[@ucenicul]

​@@TheWoodloreIt's true, you were an inspiration to me too.

[@TheWoodlore]

@ Amazing!

[@toddlarsen6215]

I watched your tap and screw videos often when I was preparing for my bench. Also took inspiration from your end vise to build my own. Thanks for all the hard work you put in when starting out. Excited that you have re-imagined your presence on KZbin - glad to see you back!

[@TheWoodlore]

Thanks for sharing! I'm glad the videos were well used. I can see a bit of the tail vise in your videos, looks good!

[@parphi3051]

Myself, like so many others, started down a rabbit hole after watching your screw threading videos.

[@TheWoodlore]

I hope the rabbit hole lead to something worth while!

[@parphi3051]

⁠​⁠​⁠@@TheWoodlore. I am certain the journey will be interesting for all. Your videography talent is obvious.

[@dagwood1327]

I think you were my first subscription. When I saw the new channel name I thought KZbin was making me part of their algorithm. 😂. I never made a wood screw but I did build a split top bench that I cut down and milled. Good update.

[@TheWoodlore]

That's amazing! I would love to see your bench if you have photos. You can email me through [e-mail] Thanks for tuning in again!

[@manofinterests334]

Man... I just realized I watched along as you built this bench... Mr Carters stopped posting videos and I lost track... and now, today, I'm feeling really old. Glad to see you making vids here.

[@TheWoodlore]

Yeah, you really realize how much has changed when a 13 year lull goes by...glad to see you are still here with me!

[@garygill7960]

I have watched all of your screw threading videos many times. Your style of video content suits me well. I encourage you to continue producing videos. Thank you for sharing.

[@TheWoodlore]

Thanks for the encouragement! I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the videos.

[@renuing]

Welcome back, I loved the content you produced on wood screw construction, looking forward to seeing what you are up to now.

[@TheWoodlore]

Thank you!

[@MarkThomas123]

Yes.. Saw all of your videos years ago. Just watched the bench playlist again with this recent video.. Thanks for the Screw thread videos. Not sure why it popped up on my feed, but, when it did, I immediately recognized it and watched it again.. I was sort of shocked to find a new and updated video... Glad to see you are back.. And, the workbench looks great after 13 years. Especially in a garage.. Congrats.!

[@TheWoodlore]

You're welcome and thanks for sharing!

[@stephenpduncan]

Great to see you back! Your wooden screw videos inspired and set me off on my woodworking adventure and were one of my very first KZbin obsession binges.

[@TheWoodlore]

That's amazing! It's crazy for me to think that my videos had an impact on other people's wood working journeys! Thanks for sharing.

[@Kolajer]

Wow, I'm old and bald now, yet here we are. Worth the wait.

[@TheWoodlore]

Well, there is more than one reason why I wear a hat often! Thanks for sticking with me through thick and thin... ;)

[@dagwood1327]

The kid grew up!!!

[@gregorytrim8428]

I enjoyed all your screw thread videos years ago! Glad to see you back at it.

[@thenoblephotographer]

Its so weird only 2 nights ago i watched your ‘old’ video on your tail vice again as i’m in the process of building mine for my solid top Roubo work bench! Thanks for the follow up video, its great to hear your thoughts on what you like and would do differently. Fortunately i’m using a 30mm metal rod and screw for my vice so i shouldn’t have those seasonal issues with the thread! Keep up the great videos.

[@TheWoodlore]

Awesome! I am glad the videos helped. You can find my contact on my about me page on the channel, I'd love to see pictures of your bench when it comes together!

[@philradon5794]

Ha ! you do videos again, cool, i used your videos to make wooden screws ! amazing !

[@TheWoodlore]

That's awesome! I would love to see pictures of your bench if you want to check out my contact info on my about me page. Thanks for sharing!

[@metanoiete55]

Very glad you're back! Your original videos were very inspirational, and this one is a helpful review of the pros and cons.

[@TheWoodlore]

Thank you! I'm glad they have been helpful for you.

[@diegoguerra8736]

Great content :)

[@TheWoodlore]

Thank you!

[@NomadMakes]

Thanks for a really nice video with some good reflections. Cheers. +1 ;-)

[@TheWoodlore]

Thanks for sharing, I'm glad you liked it!

[@soffronitsky]

So happy you're back!

[@HansKrause-k6r]

It’s great to see you back. Your thoughts have been helpful. I built a Moravian bench years ago and haven’t installed a vise. Your feedback on the different types over years of use has been great.

[@TheWoodlore]

Thanks for sharing, I'm happy to hear my thoughts were helpful. I'd love to hear how your bench continues to evolve over time.

[@nicholaswillms2424]

Looking forward to more!!

[@TheWoodlore]

Woohoo! Thanks Nick!

[@hesgrant]

Awesome update, looking forward to more videos!

[@Oldiesyoungies]

cool

[@donniewillis2926]

I watched your video's then about the bench and making wooden screws and nuts and every video you actually posted. I seem to remember you had a different shop when you had finished that bench, or the shop filled up, as they all do. I am starting my first bench now at pushing 57, I have chosen the Anarchist workbench by Chis Schwartz but and will include a leg vise and will be adding a wagon vise from the very beginning. Funny you mentioned width and height though. I have chosen the Paul Sellers height for the bench I will build of 38" to start and 2 books I have from 1901 and 1918 both list those heights as the normal, but width seems never to have been the same. I am torn on width but am leaning towards 26'ish wide. with a small French tool rack on the back left directly opposite the face vise. I am going with Southern Yellow Pine. And yep, guess whose plans I am going to try to use to make my screws with? I welcome you back, you were outstanding in your instruction as a young man, and now I know you are more experienced I will gain some more insight and knowledge!!

[@TheWoodlore]

Thanks for sharing Donnie! I very happy you found the videos helpful, and thanks for the warm welcome back 🙂 The Anarchist workbench is a good design, and the wagon vise will be a great addition. 26" sounds like a good width and it makes sense to start taller when you can easily shorten the legs on that bench design. I would love to see your bench when you finish it!
