I'm with Jason on this one. Benchwork looks intimidating, but is much easier than you can imagine. The last thing I built before I did my benchwork was a bird house when I was in grade six in 1960 when I was a boy scout. The judge had to ask me what it was and that was the end of my wood working career. <br /> <br />Remember there is only one really important requirement for benchwork and once you have master this idea, you can build anything. The primary purpose of benchwork is so your layout doesn't fall down. Now you can do open grid, or L girder (very easy to build), or you can have the flat plywood central, or cookie cutter layouts, or benchwork attached to the walls, or benchwork on top of kitchen cabinets, or on library shelves, or what have you. The only important part of the benchwork is that they remain standing. <br /> <br />You now know the fundamental secret of benchwork.
