There have been some recent talk on a couple of woodworking forums about workbenches and our current book from Fox Chapel fits right in. So, if you are a new woodworker and need a new bench or just want to upgrade your shop with a new one this is the book for you. Take a look! Dave Munkittric's workbench on page 10 is to die for but is more of an excellent storage solution than a workbench. Turn to page 23 to see Tom Caspar's $250. 2x4 and plywood bench or to page 34 for a more conventional but novel workbench by the same author. What's a workbench without a first class vise? Caspar provides the ins and outs of bench vises with tios on installing them. Assembly tables and rolling storage carts all part of a well equipped wood shop and then there is the tool cabinet. George Vondriska and Dave Munkittrick show you plans for an excellently designed one. Sliding pegboard, the master tool of any workshop, and a tool caddy are described and a great expandable router bit storage system is outlined. This book is crammed full of terrific shop ideas and tips on compact storage solutions.
