Making Progress on my Workbenches - I almost have the first workbench completed with the exception of the bottom shelf. It is built to the EAA Chapter 1000 specs with the exception of the middle support for the bottom shelf. I added that just to make it a little stronger. Top dimensions are 60" x 24".

Making Progress on my Workbenches -These are the tops to my other two workbenches. The smaller one is a 60" x 24" top and the longer one is 90" x 24". The longer one is built to the same specifications as the EAA Chapter 1000 table, but is just 30 inches longer. I will use it for my benchtop power tools and my vise.

Making Progress on my Workbenches - The old dining room table I am using as my dimpling table was a little shaky and was starting to sag a little with the dimpler mounted on it. I added a sheet of 3/4" plywood to the top and bolted it through both halves of the table just on the other side of the leaf. I also added a shelf on the bottom for extra shelf space and to make the table more sturdy...it is solid as a rock now. I have been using it as a workbench to build my workbenches, so I will not mount the dimpler back on it until I am done.
