Woodworkers journal Video Festoolie
Watch this video with Rob Johnstone.
http://www.woodworkersjournal.com/re...ble/index.html I think it's funny that a festool junkie can't afford a decent workbench. This thing looks like it weighs 50lbs, or is a toy workbench... He can afford a Kapex , multiple Festool tables, systainers galore, but a rinky dink bench... I love my heavy bench... Even my old one didn't move like that. Maybe some glue will help and some bolts.. |

I have one. POS. Light work benches are like light anvils. A constant source of frustration. |

Makes me feel better about making my own heavy weight. Maple and Beech, heavy... No thinned out top with wide skirts on the top, all solid. Weighs a ton... ok over 300lbs I needed help to flip the top. I tried without, but it went through the wall... :-( |
