Great series for what appears to be a very solid and useful workbench. What would be very helpful is an approximate cost at time of build. I realize the wood cost will vary but a cost at time of build can be easily converted to today's local cost. If the 8/4 Cherry was $4 BF then we can look and see what that is today. At my wood yard that would translate to $6.20 BF. Then I'd have an idea what my estimated cost would be to attempt this project.
I do love this bench design. And it's very well documented. Thanks guys!
Good question. To bad nobody bothered to answer you question.
And here it is Feb 2023 and still no answers on any of the videos except one by another user.
