Re: Making a Roubo Workbench: Part 2

I'm mid-process myself and I'm curious if there was a particular reason for you to start with the top and then build the base. I've built the base and now I'm starting on the top. I'm not sure if it makes a difference since I still based my base dimensions to the top dimensions.

I guess I'll see. :-)

Two questions:
1. what kind of vises are you using? (I'm making a leg vise and then a wagon vise)
2. How did you edge up your top to make sure it's all aligned on the ends? I'm considering trying to edge up one side as best as I can and then letting the other end be long. That way I'll have more control over the final length depending on how well the glue-up goes.

Thanks, and good luck!
