In this video I finish the build of my bench-top workbench. Inspired by Laura Kampf and the numerous Roubo workbenches out there, this will tide me over until I can make the time to build a full size Roubo bench.

I've added the feet that raise the bench a little and give me somewhere to clamp it to the work surface it's being used on.

I also added two dog holes to the side (maybe more in future) for the bench dogs to go into when I'm not using them. It stops me from losing them!

There is also a drawer in the side (that doesn't get a hammering) to store my pencils, small square, marking knife and compass.

I have lots of ideas for making the big Roubo, but hardwood costs a lot in the UK, so will be looking to make it from readily available pine lumbar.

Project Notes: The pine was from an old bed that was salvaged from a skip. The wood was nice and dry and stable, which worked well for the top. The Oak used for the ends, the vice and the dovetailed middle leg were bought as a batch of blanks, about 12"x5"x11/2". The vice came from Axminster Tools and is a Veritas Front Vice, which can be found here:
