Building A Roubo Work Bench Out Of Southern Yellow Pine (Part 1)

  • čas přidán 7. 06. 2018
  • I built this Split top roubo style woodworking bench out of affordable lumber from the home center. The benchcrafted tail vise and leg vise were not so affordable but definitely worth the investment. This work bench is solid, heavy and great for hand tool woodworking. I used the benchcrafted plans as a guide but had to change some dimensions since i used dimensional southern yellow pine from the home center. I also used Popular woodworking magazine's issue #191 for a guide to cut the dovetails or condor tails as they call them.
    In this video, I laminate the legs and top, make the end cap and dovetails and install the benchcrafted tail vise. I hop you enjoy the build and please consider subscribing so you don't miss part 2!

    I bought this for my friend for his birthday as we just moved into a new house and he finally has room for a workshop. The bench was very easy to set up czcams.com/users/postUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh They center support is a little difficult to snap in and out of place at first but at least then we know the bench is secure. It was a pleasant surprise when we saw it came with clamps. I apparently missed that in the description. My friend loves the versatility of the bench. Great starter bench for his workshop and easily transportable all over our property. I wish the bench was a little taller but the other features of the bench more than make up for that.

    POV: By now you've watched around 50 videos of how to build a work bench, yet you're still sitting here and wondering how the hell you're gonna do it owning only a drill and a hand saw + 10 dollars on your bank account.

    When you were routing freehand near the end of the video, I would use a small piece of straight lumber pinned down with brad nails and use that as the fence. Since it's the bottom side, the little pinholes the brads make won't be noticeable. (just my 2c)

    • @TwistedWorkshop77

    Great job with the work bench (Y)
    I'm new here, and I hope it's okay I mention this:
    A loose shirt and a jointer (or any rotating tool) within an inch of each other is something that can't be said too often, as people still do it and some of them get badly injured! (About 1:13 into the video)
    I know, people need to take care of their own safety, absolutely, but when editing a video like this, it would be a perfect moment either to remove the sequence or better, add a "Don't do this" comment.
    This is not meant as a negative comment and I sure gave the video the Thump Up it deserves, but if we can't teach people not "just" how to make amazing things, but also do it safe, and admit we're all human and we all make mistakes, it's in my view a "win win". :D
    Stay safe and creative (y)

    thanks for the video. i really enjoyed it. out of all the workbench builds yours has the right mix of budget and utility. i agree money should be spent more on the vice hardware than on the wood itself. i am not sure i am ready to spent bench-crafted money on mine, but i do want something nice. what other vices were you considering? i think my budget would be 400-500 for both end and front vices - probably the veritas twin-screw.

    • @TwistedWorkshop77
      @TwistedWorkshop77  Před 5 lety +1

      Thanks. I considered the 50.00 vise screws I had on my last bench for the leg and tail vise as this would have made the enter bench build less than 250.00. I am glad i went with the BC hardware though. I recently built a moxon vise for dovetails and joinery work. I like being able to clamp boards between the screws. Something like the twin screw design would be awesome

    Very good, perfect...but I wanted to see you guys do this ROUBO Bench, with our HIGH density Massarannduba here in Brazil, or with our "Rouxinho - pau ferro", as the name says (Pau Ferro = wood of iron)... they say it is the densest wood in the world. To make it with the same color, we have Garapa, a light yellow color, just like yours but also with high density and difficult to cut due to the composition that has the presence of Silica and blinds the tools and saw.
