I think that should work fine. Good luck and please let us know how
the bench turns out.

Thanks, Mike. One of the things I have learned in my short experience as a
woodworker is that there are usually at least two good ways to accomplish a
goal and perhaps one of those can be done without buying another tool.
Unfortunately, getting by without buying something rarely happens.

Regarding "at least two good ways to accomplish a goal": Just to
throw another monkey wrench into the works, you can always opt for
rectangular bench dogs where making the dog holes is simply a matter
of routering (or dadoing) some slots into one of the boards before
gluing up the top. I chose that route for my bench but I don't think
there's any huge advantage to either approach over the other.

Cheers,
Mike
