DIY Home & Garden Projects | Split Top Work Bench, is this a Roubo? @DIYHGP | Uploaded 5 years ago | Updated 2 minutes ago
My old bench top was beyond repair, too many holes from using it as a drill support. I wanted a new bench top that was easier for planing and holding materials on the bench. A split top was the answer. I built this bench top from upcycled 2x4s. I show how to add Dog Holes for planing stops or holdfast. The split top allows clamping deep into the bench, securing my work piece.
Some of the tools I use:
Marking Gauge
amzn.to/2yYkroU
Narex Chisels
amzn.to/2Y03ch8
123 Blocks
amzn.to/2H2mZbC
Calipers
amzn.to/2tVlVOr
Miter Gauge
amzn.to/2HoKjzX
Holdfast
amzn.to/33vMTN4
Parchment paper (for glue ups)
amzn.to/2XWxelJ
Forstner bits set
amzn.to/2XNIuWo

Shoulder Plane amzn.to/2LbgtRd
