Well, it may take a little longer than eight hours but it will be a quick project. Thanks to everyone who gave me ideas in the earlier thread. I finally decided to just make a working workbench and save the super duper workbench project for later (much later).
This bench will be roughly three feet by eight feet and about three feet tall. The base is three feet by five feet. It will have two vises and lots of bench dog holes. I want it to be rock-solid. There will be a little bit of storage underneath for those extra pieces of wood that I never want to throw away. I will probably build a place for my table saw sled and make a few shelves for other things.
Anyway, I have the base about half-way finished. Here are a couple of pics.
If all goes well, I should have it ready to put the vises on when the shipment gets here early next week.
