Groggy
I have followed this build after accidentally running across it a year and a half ago. It took awhile to catch up to your current posts, but the reading was enjoyable.
Congratulations on the final result and I appreciate the documentation and insight that you shared.

OK Greg, now you can feed the dog.

If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

A bench and WIP of epic proportions. Well done Groggy. Your efforts have been an inspiration to many would be bench builders, myself included.
Those were the droids I was looking for.

Don't be too modest, I'm sure a lot of professional woodworkers would be proud to have produced your bench.
Thanks for sharing the journey Groggy, and I hope you got as much out of it as your audience did.

Beetle Shirt and Acer nailed it. Just fabulous! In particular I like all the different ways of holding something. More pics as you use it in different ways Greg, because those of us who have never used such a thing will learn why this kind of bench is the go.
If the predecessor went 30 years then....

Time to give it a beating with chains and a scorch with a blowtorch to give it some patina
