Saw this earlier it has been reuploaded by a user called wooden items. I was about to settle down to watch. Returned here to watch the genuine one. Awesome work
I'm intrigued by the idea of this worktop with a system to sturdily & quickly (un)attach it to low Japanese sawhorses. Could be an ultra-portable low-to-the ground solution covering many working tasks.
@@fennskexactly on what I’m plan on doing… a small workbench with a pair of sturdy sawhorses. I don’t have the proper closed space for a big workbench but that will do for work in my garden.
Great to see you again Adrian! I made your first low workbench a couple years ago, but this one is capturing my interest... I may have to make this one, too! I really like the shooting plane you have incorporated into it! You should post more
So glad you're back and posting again, love the whole vibe of your videos 🥰 It may seem like a small thing to you but I honestly appreciate your best-tool-for-the-job philosophy. There are infinite paths to mastery - my favourite woodworkers span the full spectrum from handtool-only puritanism to $$$$ Festool-everything gadgethead - but your approach really speaks to me 🙂
I remember the last iteration of this little guy! Im also moving to a place that might actually have room for a little work bench, so this is good timing
thanks for sharing, have long been a fan of this general design.. i bought the plans years ago, now that my daughter is getting a little older maybe ill finally make the time to build it
Very well done, had to downsize and sell all my power tools so my little work bench is not as nice as yours but it does its job and is working. Appreciate your power tools while you have them. Thanks for the video.
Love all of your videos , love the sound of hand tool , great work !! waiting to see you make a Kumiko Well ,,this one look smaller than you previous mini work bench but same functions
Felicitări Adrian! De fiecare dată mă uit cu plăcere. Pe lângă îndemânarea impecabilă și editarea filmului nu este mai prejos. Totul se desfășoară cu calm, ca la un adevărat meșter japonez.
Parabéns pelo belíssimo trabalho, adorei, é muito eficiente e ajuda no dia dia, essa ao meu ver foi a melhor forma de fazer esse tipo de ferramenta, também ficando móvel facilita seu uso. Abraço aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷
I am about to start a similar project but one thing I missed in this form was a more purposeful stabilizer design, in other words not just bar clamps to the legs. I'd like something more elegant and "permanent." It's gorgeous though.
When using as a shooting board will the plane start cutting the bench? I didn't see the little lip we normally have on our shooting boards, but the idea is fantastic.
You can keep the plane a bit away from the bench top but it will eventually bite, although that's not quite a shooting board but a planing board, to make an edge flat straight, not square to a perpendicular edge like a proper shooting board
Thanks! No, I think is too mini and delicate for the job, maybe for another project. This 150mm/6” Irwin is a real workhorse, I ve used mine to extreme many times and still survives
I am curious. It seems like every time you make a new low workbench that it grows smaller with every iteration. Or am I mistaken? If it is true, then why? Have you found some Goldilocks "just right" size? I suppose it could perhaps just be the type of work you do. The main reason I ask is that I gravitate to more furniture oriented interests, like bed frames, tables, chairs, etc. But my kids now show interest in woodworking too and smaller projects like shelves, boxes, pencil holders, etc seem to be on the horizon. I mainly work off of Japanese style sawhorses with a minimum up power tools for rough dimensioning.
Thanks! No, not quite :) Maybe this one is 1cm less wider than the previous one and this is because of the stock lumber I had. True that I started with a very wide one but I realized it doesn't really need to be this way, in practice the top is sufficient to match the width of the vise I concluded
@@AdrianPreda Thank you very much for responding. After much mental gymnastics I have concluded I will continue to use my Japanese style sawhorses. I have this 40mm thick slatted top that is roughly .5m x 1.8m long. I have used this now for several years for all manner of power and hand tool projects. The slats work quite well for clamping and workholding. I think I am going to split it into two roughly 325mm wide tops that can be put together, slid apart for wider projects, or even stacked upon one another. But then build two atedai/low workbenches, one larger at about 1m + long and a little wider, and then one smaller, similar in size to yours with more elaborate workholding options. Thank you again for the clarification...and inspiration!
Anyone know what that red table saw blade was? It looked like it was wider than your standard 1/8 in kerf. I've been wondering if they made something like this. Don't think I need a full dado stack (and my saw probably couldn't handle it) but something like this might be very useful
:) Aye Problem is were cutting them down faster than we can grow them and the ones we ARE growing are engineered to grow fast so are soft AF. Consequently when harvested they are chipped and mixed with recycled wood to form your Composite Sheets. 1 small workbench wont matter but 100,000 americans copying the workbench for something to do might ! When its all added together ! Just consider the energy requirements of the server farms and the bit coin mining ! :D LMAO Hope your home is higher than 3' above sea level ! OFC we wont be here as it will take 50-100 years to get to that point i reckon. West antarctic ice sheet is End Of Life at this point. Many other Glaciers are speeding up as they melt. Spend a week or two reading up and watching videos. Check out AL Gors video from ? 10 years ago now ? Yea Its gonna get real and fairly soon now i think for most people to be affected by climate change@@BlitzKriegFM
Maybe HE doesn't need one or use it, but that's an even nicer reason to show folks like ME who DO need it how to build it. I'd also venture to guess that the things he builds that he doesn't need gets donated or sold to someone who does...
This is a great video mate. I mean this with no disrespect in any way, I was just curious as to how sturdy that slim piece of wood is about the vice and wondering if there was a reason for not recessing it into the bench top? It look great either way. I was just curious and I look forward to seeing your other projects
