Girl, the 1st 2 seconds my brain read this I thought it was gonna be for a tool and nearly choked on my chocolate milk when I saw 60%
I definitely needed a Tamar video today! Everything I tried to do today just turned to s@#£... I just about chucked my tools out the door! Unlike you I don't have a workshop yet...since I don't live alone I can't just do what I want. So I have been going around grabbing roadside "ritches " and free stuff off marketplace trying to start my own workshop and storage to start my own woodworking business repurposing items...this summer I have lost sooo much time to rain! I'd swear I live in nova Scotia but we are not supposed to have a monsoon season and I'm pretty sure I didn't move to a rain forest...sigh.
I really needed the laugh from seeing you on the skateboard. I thought I was the only person who used one for a dolly! Thanks for the laughs and inspiration!
My jaw dropped when you said you sprained your ankle too! I'd spent the whole day collecting free wood and stuff with my oldest son. I pushed past my limits bcuz weather is killing my time...plus I'm excited to be preparing for my new workshop. When we got home my runaway teenager had decided to come back unannounced (we don't get along...breaks my heart). As you can imagine I was distracted...when I realised I forgot something in the car. I made the mistake of turning around on the steps. My stupid bad hip said screw you I'm done for the day! It randomly let go and down I went...my hair got caught in the fencing effectively pinning me to the ground. All I heard was awful cracking...thought for sure I broke something as it was my second fall in a month...same ankle. Over extended my left arm...😢. I would not wish my bad luck on anyone (ok maybe bad guys...lol). It's encouraging to see you and I have similar struggles and you prevailing! Gives me hope
Congratulations, from a dusty dirty cold and hot shed (she shed?)
To this updated much improved custom studio shop.
Your moving up.
Looking forward to more projects
Like the folding roll up chair you did
That didn't work out.
Still a neat concept and you dont know if you dont try.
Lots a new machines to work with.
Thus far it all costing money. Be nice to see you making custom stuff to sell to client's getting a return on the investment.
Stay small, a lot of shops went big only to hire people who had bad habits. I got lumber from a shop as he closed about 1/4 the cost he was bassicly giving it away to retire.
As I was looking at what he had we found a crack pipe in his shop that looked like a magic marker.
This fool was using drugs in the shop working if he'd gotten hurt on the job well you cant trust people have comon since enough to know not to be using drugs and running power equipment, the risk for serious injury is beyond imagination and the shop owner would be responsible.
This is the risk you take hiring someone. And I'd fire them on the spot if I caught them doing it.
No second chances and I'd be very clear about that policy.
Looks like a great design. Ignore the people that complain about you using higher end tools. You have made many amazing projects over the years using budget tools. You have definitely earned you right to have nicer tools, and they should recognize that and that you have proven time and time again you don't need high end tools to make high-end products.
I appreciate that! And I’m really glad you see it that way. I was once a beginner who got frustrated when I saw someone use a router table to achieve something when I didn’t have a router table… so I get it. But watching those videos also gave me inspiration and goals that’s I wanted to achieve. I am proud to say I am no longer a beginner woodworker and I shouldn’t pretend to be one for viewers who are looking to get for that content. I will keep on growing and I hope ppl will come along for the ride, but if they don’t, that’s ok too ☺️
Absolutely.
Wholeheartedly agree. I can't deny a sense of jealousy seeing those amazing tools that I do not currently afford. But, having followed your progress over the past several years, I know that they are all hard earned.
One of the charms of your channel has always been how you figure out to do things without the special tools.
Seeing the floating tenons done the hard way before bringing out the domino is appreciated.
You could have all Festools now and if still enjoy your videos because I've watched your progression, and know from where you've come. Your shop is fantastic, btw.
right on, tamar…! i for one am highly impressed by the skillful way you present your woodworking videos and how much you have progressed since starting your yt channel…!
there is constructive criticism and there’s deconstructive complaining; constructive criticism always wins out… complaining commenters about your shop or tools only do one thing: the complainer gives you their time; something they will never get back…! 😂
best wishes for a speedy ankle recovery…! (i personally don’t want to see a video of the twisting your ankle video… 😢)
You are without a doubt the easiest to understand woodworking teacher. Thank you for your videos.
Thanks for including your "mistakes."
Awesome to hear! Glad you enjoyed!
Never feel bad about getting better more expensive tools ect.. You worked for it and earned it thats what it's all about. It's been so fun to watch you grow and learn as we all learn right along with you.
Facts
I think most people are just irritated because influencers shove all these expensive tools in our face like they're the best thing... but they got them for free to begin with. Seems very shill-ish and very much not genuine.
I have been a hobbyist woodworker for over 20 years. There’s no shame in having nice tools. They save you time and frustration and allow you to focus more on what you’re building vs how you’re going to build it. Anyway, very nice work and excellent video editing!
Looking great so far, you should be super proud! If you have the time, I’d vote yes to making the plans available for purchase. And yep…def want to see the ankle vid! Knowing that you’re ok means I can laugh and not feel guilty (a little bit).
Alright, noted! And yeah, I enjoy showing the video to people in real life and seeing how they react 😂
I came to the comments to post this, couldn’t of said it better!
Yes, plans. No, ankle vid.
Really a great project . Congratulation! May i ask you where i can buy the small vice whitch you integrated in the workbench ? Thanks a lot in advance. Greetings from Germany Harry
It's so cool you're building out your new shop and getting bigger and better equipment. At the same time, for me, one of the appeals of your channel was how beginner-friendly it has been. I don't want to suggest that you should hold back and not progress, I just found it so awesome that you made beginner equipment work so well. It made woodworking seem more accessible for newbies. It's great that you continue to show simpler options during your builds.
Thanks for your content and keep on cracking.
I totally get it and this was probably the best comment on this topic. Usually ppl aren’t as nice… ha. I have been doing this for a while and I am no longer a beginner. Hopefully all beginner woodworkers get to the stage I am at and further as they progress ☺️
@@3x3CustomTamar- totally agree with the parent comment here, as someone who found you when looking to get into it. The great thing is seeing the progression though, rather than just ignoring all the beginner development you went through.
I know it's not a "normal" theme for you, but it would actually be really cool if you put out a career breakdown video of some kind, going over the big milestones in your projects / the work that you do, the shop developments that accompanied all of those, and how the knowledge you picked up over time looks like. Not a small one, but thinking of your joint/tool breakdowns that clearly show insight to when you started using different techniques, milling your own lumber, etc. - it'd be invaluable in terms of helping folks conceptualize the journey even if they're just hobbyists (that'd be me 😅).
Either way, great work again and cheers!
@@andrewbattelini4532 hmmmm. I’m not sure if I can even define those things for myself. They kinda just… happened… ha. And I guess if you watch my videos I’m chronological order you would see some sort of progression 🤷🏻♀️😂
This is a great video. We saw you start with "cheap" tools. Now you have some really nice tools you've "earned". I love this and appreciate your work. Keep doing what you're doing. We love you Tamar!
Tamar....... I can't help observing your great personality, disposition, and above it all the way you handle yourself during your wood projects. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and great aptitude. You even show how satisfying it is to see when everything fits the way intended. Once again, thank you for taking the time out of your day to teach us all
I really like the fact that you’ve upped the game with regards to your tools. Through the progression of your channel, you’ve shown what it’s like to do the work with basic tools (and in a shop that has drastically varying temperatures) and what it’s like as someone who’s able to increase the quality of their tools as time goes on; it’s not like you’ve just clicked your fingers and bought your current spec - you’ve worked hard for it! Anyone who has a passion for woodworking and happens to have a little or a lot of spare cash would do just the same. Either way, hold your head high and be proud.
The bench is looking great. Keep up the great work and heal well.
I feel very proud for what I created here ☺️☺️☺️
I have seen only a few of your video’s and was very pleased as I was left thinking, here is someone doing quality work with affordable tools with great explanation for less. UNTIL this video, wow, you certainly moved up with very fancy tools. Congratulations. I am sure you have worked quite hard to get here.
Tamar, that looks like a very well thought out work bench. Since we all have our own way of working, it is good to have one designed for our individual needs and it is good you took the time to think it out before jumping into building this. By all means, breaking this build into multiple videos is fine, since it gives us more chances to visit with you while you work. Your videos are always fun to watch, as well as informative and we miss you when you don't post. Looking forward to the rest of this series.
Please take care of that injury - sure we would like to see what caused it; it may help us to avoid the same type of injury.
Workbenches are so personal. I’m so excited to get to use this one
You’re so smart. Show people the new laguna so they get so pissed off they don’t notice the Festool Kapex in the next shot. You’re a legend. I’m taking notes.
Well done on everything! Love this! 🎉 congrats.
😂😂😂 🤫 don’t give away my secrets
i've loved learning from you for such a long time. its so wonderful to have watched you build in "humble" beginnings, and to see you progress in your style, ability and equipment. thank you for breaking down your videos so a beginner"ish" woodworker such as myself can follow along and learn from you. i love your projects and your teaching. and not one to pass up wanting to see how you hurt your ankle! (only cause we know you're ok though!)
After my 40's I'm starting in the hobby, and searching on YT I found this girl, and OMG, she's a beast! All my admiration and gratitude to her. I have learned a lot from her content. I wish her all the success in the world in her career and personal life. Thank you!
☺️☺️☺️
Cool idea to combine bench styles, especially if space is a concern. Looks nicely built and nice and solid so far. Well done! Hope the ankle heals up soon for you
I think it is clever
So refreshing seeing someone sitting on the floor to work! Makes me feel better about drawing a square on my garage floor just so I could have a reference square to work from
Yes, if you could prepare plans for us that would be amazing. Great job!!!
Noted!
Love the idea of plans, but really helpful for than plans would be access to the sketchup file. I inevitably want to adapt these designs and end up redrawing my own sketchup from the plans. A step I’d love to drop. Just an idea. Thanks for sharing your work and hope you’re healing well.
Scratch all the time for custom plans with dimensioned pieces and just make your sketch up file available. We would all make changes anyway to adapt to our needs, spaces, heights, vices, etc. Nice build!
Great video and a great bench! As others have said, just the Sketchup file would be perfect because we often tweak things to fit our needs/space anyway so it's a deviation from the plan.
I'm just starting to get into wood working and I must say, it teaches you patience, something I've always lacked. This was an amazing build and, very inspiring. Thank you for this!
Such an awesome build! I love learning all of the woodworking terms for the holes, fasteners, and different cuts. I love watching the projects come together.
First time I seen your work, I'm impressed, well done enjoyed every minute of it.
30yr Ironworker retired, watching you makes me realise how little effort I put into my so called wood work. Thank you and I hope your family appreciates the work you do. Well done.
Hi Tamar. I have been watching your videos for years and absolutely love your work. As my daughter is also a professional woodworker you are a model and an inspiration to us both. Watching you work on this video I couldn't help but notice your current out-feed table saw situation. I used rollers for years and last year bit the bullet and got the integrated out-feed table for my Saw-stop. It is a game changer!
I know. There's never enough money to buy all the tools we want, yet I'd highly recommend you give it a look. It stows away so well and has made my rollers nearly obsolete.
Keep up the great work Tamar. Thrilled you're enjoying such success. I clearly remember those one car garage videos and marveling how you did so much with so little!
Glad to see you expanding your tools! I would love to see plans for this.
Keep up the great work and heal up!
Thanks! Will do!
Tamar, you’ve absolutely earned your success. You are one of the best teachers on YT and are so humble and genuine. I feel sorry for the haters - theirs must be a miserable existence. We all love you and will always support you!
☺️☺️ awesome to hear
Congrats on the Laguna planer Tamar! Good for you! Hard work does pay off. Sorry to hear about the bad sprain. Take it easy and get it healed up soon! Thanks for another great video. Can't wait to see the next vid of this build.
The drawer video is going live tomorrow!
Hello Tamar, my name is Örn which means Eagle in English and I live in Iceland I have be watching your work and have to say that you have very fine skills. It´s a pleasure to see you work.
Yes I would love the plans for this workbench! I am in the midst of planning my workbench and this is perfect!!
Awesome. You got it!
Hi Tamar, I followed your links and saw the Instagram short but no actual plans for the workbench. Is there a PDF?
@@jtube713 plans are live now!! They are linked in the 3rd video of this series
Ive just started woodworking and I have been watching a lot of your older videos. Its great to see what you made with those and how you evolved your shop. Dont let the haters get to you about all the pro tools you have now. To me, you put your time in and earned them all the while helping new guys like me learn along the way. Id love to see the plans to this bench, something to aspire to in the future as I upgrade my 2x4 pine top! Thanks for all you time in making these videos
I have been doing this TH-cam thing for a while now. I’m pretty hardened to any negative comments. Don’t worry about me. Ha. So glad you like the bench! Plans are now available
Very nice build and sorry that you got hurt while building it. You should definitely show what happened, even in small work spaces you have to be careful, confined work spaces can be tricky.
Thanks! Yeah. It was just so stupid and I wasn’t paying attention to what was around me.
Sure why not show the ankle accident…really have enjoyed your videos of your career growth.
Do you have a shop tour of sorts ? I looked but couldn’t find one..I was curious how you ended up with this nice space…thanks!
@@vaughnmaurt5013 I have one from when I first moved without all my tools in…
Everybody has to experience love when they are young.There are love and joy,but never eternity.
I would love to see the plans for the entire table! Looks amazing so far
On it!
Thank you. How did you attach the tops to the base?
@@pavementhum that video is live today!
Smart to replace that planer. Better safe than sorry. Yes please share the ankle injury video. I think your outtakes/deleted scenes are an excellent addition to your videos. The work table looks great!
Tamar I’m so excited for you, you’ve worked so hard and it’s amazing to see how advanced your shop not to mention skill set and expertise has grown since you’re first video posted. You’ve used about every method there is for building complex, high quality builds and always did the best job of sharing “how to” so thank you, these upgrades are very well earned and look forward to every build in the future! Love the shop made tenons, that’s the one joinery method I’m not looking forward to learning, for some reason it seems daunting however I’ll power through it on the next build. I’ve just recently used bridle joints and half laps for a hickory vanity build but it’s through your content that aided in me having the knowledge to go about it and the courage. Is it just me or is there some kind of joinery phobia we all have to get passed?
That’s really so awesome to hear. Every single new thing I try gives me some sort of anxiety… and I have to film and post it to the internet!!! Just go for it and be safe! Always remember to cut your first one on scrap!
You are one of the best educators on TH-cam. Really appreciate your laid back, show-it-all approach. Keep it up!
Awesome! Thank you!
Tamar, You are amazing! I love you videos. Informative, great designs and l love your commentary on what and why you do each step. Also like your comments on what you can or should do next time. Also, I like your willingness to experiment with new techniques and allow us to go along and see how it works out.
Surely it's the end product and the journey there rather than what you use to achieve that goal. And who wouldn't use the best tools they can have? People should appreciate the fact you're sharing your passion and making great content. As long as you keep posting we will keep watching and learning.
Awesome to hear ☺️
Wow, this is an interesting build! Yes to plans & bloopers please!😊
👍👍
Yes, to plans. Best combo bench I've seen on TH-cam. Nicely done.
@@loyalchemist7043 plans are live!!
Beautiful work and nice design! I must admit I groan though when I hear people complaining about 'not having space'. Try working in a typical UK garage or shed that's 8 foot by 12 foot! And that's before allowing for the family bikes etc.
First yes on both the plans and the sprain…keep in mind letting it heal now will keep it from hurting 10 years from now!!! Be patient
Also since your first video you have always said “there are ways to make anything using the tools you own not the ones you’re waiting to own. Don’t wait for the perfect shop/tools to build you can gather as you go!” I love your videos I learn something every time…you are a great teacher!
Thanks for sharing your skill and knowledge.
It’s so hard to rest and let it heal…. Glad you learn something every video!
Qualidade cem porcento, legal demais.... Saudações aqui do Brasil.
Im a retiring metal worker. Setting up to work with wood now, building my bench now, drawn on sketchup, a great tool. Your bench is looking great. Very good craftpersonship. 👍
Another great video. You are just plain fun to watch as your skill keeps growing. It definitely encourages me.
Plans would be nice. How do you decide what you need in the build and how do you decide to put it together?
I vote No on the ankle sprain. I dont like to see people get hurt, especially virtual friends. 😢😊
I hope you fully recover soon!
Glad you liked it! Noted on the plans and the injury video. Ha
Hope you'll be zooming around your workshop in no time. the workbench looks great. and it's so nice to see you edging towards 1M subs 😊
Yes, plans, please! What a delight to see the progress on your beautiful shop! Thank you for sharing it with us!
You got it!
Awesome project Tamar! Looking forward to part 2. It is great watching you continue to evolve your shop, tools, skill set, and projects over the years. I have learned a a lot from you over the years and anticipate I'll be learning a lot more from your new shop. Hope your recovery from the sprain goes well and healing comes quickly. Also, if you are willing, it would be great to see the accident that led to the sprain! It sounds like you are a good sport about sharing that.
Thanks so much! I’ll share it with a content warning as some ppl don’t want to see it
That's a fine looking workbench that will see a lot of use over the years. I bet it will never get old having that in your shop.
I keep walking in and smiling.
Love the combination approach of an old school workbench and assembling table in one. Just frustrating to live in Europe and have fewer options for high quality wood - that Maple looks fabulous.
I wish you a speedy recovery. An innovative workbench, a wonderful plan and wonderful execution.
Thanks so much!
I've built four of these for 3 different spaces. It wasn't until I saw The Founder that I really started think about movement around a space, calculating necessary range of motion, most common needs for the most typical projects that I actually got the right size bench and features. You did this better than I, VERY well done!
I always enjoy your videos! You're a great teacher, designer, and woodworker. Thank you for sharing your talents! I hope your family is well and that your ankle continues to heal!
5 mins in and your loose top is giving me heart palpitations especially when you were using the jointer. Love your channel!!!
It’s tucked in when I use the jointer 😉
I love watching you make things, because I find that you have an incredible eye for detail, aesthetics, and form and functionality combine so well. Hope that ankle heals up and you get back to full speed!
☺️☺️☺️ thanks!
I just went back to watch your tutorial on milling rough cut lumber, and so happy to stumble on this to see the upgrade! Your shop is definitely **goals**
It’s really been awesome to make this space my own!
We all like to see folks be human... show us the footage of the great twist. Great work on the workbench!! ❤❤👏👏
I am about to start a new bench. Mine is OK but needs updating. Your base is exactly what I have been looking for over the past year. Not sure how I missed yours. Anyway, you have a great design for the base. I am going for a torsion box with the Parf system incorporated. Thanks for your inspiration and keep making dust.
Also I LOVE that you got Free Lux planer! You so deserve it! You’re the reason I own such high quality wood working tools like my wood handled Awl (to replace the one stolen from my dad) and a few other beauties. Also yay for knee clamp, boo for not learning glue up and long pipe clamp lessons!
Regarding longer pipe clamps: my favorite employee at the local Home Depot recently blew my mind by recommending I get a few conduit couplings (HD item 64007) to double the length of my pipe clamps.
That’s a great idea
Hope you recover from your sprained ankle soon 🤞🏼. Back in school/college I'd have advised you to "walk it off" (this recipe has literally worked for me many times), but since then I've learnt that that is not always the best solution. Love your videos for your smart solutions.
She amazes me . She has a great shop. And she is smart.
This is definitely on of the smartest designs for people with space issues. Very well thought out and your skill level definitely shines through! Keep doing what you're doing.
So happy you think so!
Pocket holes are not shameful! I see them used on expensive furniture all the time. You do great work. Use what works for the project.
I for sure want to see the ankle video. It's good to know I'm not the only graceful woodworker here.
😂😂
I'm sorry you got hurt. But, I enjoyed hearing you swearing. It rounded out your personality. 😊😊😊
Also loved the "shop dolly"! 😂😂😂
I have been away from Tamar's channel since she was moving into her new shop. The various tool manufacturers couldn't choose a better representative to highlight their products than this very talented young lady. As always, she has combined fantastic build technique, super creative video art and instruction that is just perfect! If one were to see Tamar out in public, doing daily chores, how many would assume that she was a woodworking genius? Breaker of molds as well!
Sorry to hear about your ankle, glad you're taking care of it! Also glad to see you with all the new higher end tools, your work behooves this! And yes once you move away from straight knives there's no going back! Keep it up Tamar!
Such a difference in finish quality!
Wow, what a great project. It’s not to often that woodworkers take the time to make “furniture” for our shops. Sure is great to have a solid bench! I made a classic woodworker bench about 25 years ago and have appreciated it ever since. Your bench has many features that I wish I had included when I built mine Great job!!
I would like to see your video of your ankle incident.I had a twist/turn ankle injury two years ago that took me out of the game (and led tosurgery) I wish you completely recovery!
Thanks so much! I’m excited to put it to good use! I really hope physical therapy will prevent needing surgery
From my first box joint to your amazing builds that ‘click’ into place is one of the most satisfying sounds ever.
Thanks for building
Really felt soooo good!
Yes please on the plans! This is one of the best designs, in my opinion, among the several already out there! Thank you!
Awesome to hear! On it!
Great to see you building your shop and business. I remember when you first started out with entry level tools, working in a coat and tuk. Always loved the way you explained your project builds with no ego just a love for woodworking.
Glad to not be freezing anymore. Ha
I like the idea of combining the workbench and assembly table onto a single base. I would be interested in hearing about the pros and cons after a few months of use.
Oh I can’t wait to be able to update you guys with that!!!
That's kinda what I'm looking forward to as well. That's where the real gems are is post build use.
yes for plans, no for video of accident. your work is really tidy and beautiful, and I havent found many other videos which demo step by step process in such clear and teachable terms. I am off the tools for now and have a back injury, but really want to build a similar bench as well as a jewelers bench and a drafting table. I like the old school approach to tools and you got real style.
Got the plans on my website this morning! Hopefully you feel better soon!
A little late now, but I know you'd love a bench from either of these two - Paoson Woodworking and Hooked On Wood. Of all the benches I've seen made lately, these two guys seem to have thought of it all without taking up the entire shop to do it. More videos please. Love your work. Preferably with fewer injuries....
So cool laguna sent you a new planer. It looks awsome in your shop. I like yoir bench design too. I'm surprised you didn't put the injury in the futtage. Part of the reason I like your videos is you let the viewers know about your mistakes. We all injure ourselves and feel stupid about it. It would be very human of you to include it! Let's see it!
Sorry you sprained your ankle but very thankful that it wasn't more serious. The bench is really a sharp new addition, and the choice of contrasting wood really makes it pop. Great job.
Thanks so much!
Utter beginner here so I’m kinda lost lol! Good luck to you!
I use floating tenons for most of my door making joinery and also make my own tenons. To allow for glue squeeze out I route a very shallow groove down both faces of my tenons with a 60 degree V groove bit. This prevents any hydraulic action when gluing up stile and rails. LOVE your bench design!
That’s a great idea!
yeah we all want to see the blooper reel...
but like most people here, I think this is another great vid from you, showing the progression from an "easy" bench to a functional one, and a progression from a great "starter" thicknesser to what you really need if you're setting up a dream workshop like you are! Congrats on getting to that stage!
Thanks! Lots of people are disappointed I’ve gotten to this stage. But I am very happy to be here. Ha
@@3x3CustomTamar well anyone who is disappointed you've got there are just jealous you have more skill than them - I'm happy to admit that you do, but have nothing but full respect for that!
I love your videos, Tamar! I love that you’ve got great new tools. I feel like we’ve been along on your tool journey with you. The thing I love about you is that you’ve always worked with what you’ve got and you talk about the tools you’re using in detail.
Awesome to hear!
Cool top. And yes on the plans and the ankle video. Hope you feel better soon
Working on it! Thanks!
Hey Tamar. As always, great build with easy detailed narration. I am sure the end result will be up to your standards of quality and beauty. I am not one who cares about free stuff given to makers. Manufacturers spend thousands of dollars on marketing and this is a type of marketing reserved for woodworkers like yourself, J. Katz, J. Hibbs, etc.
My one pet peeve for me is the transparency of the affordability of what is being built. I saw Bourbon moth build a chop saw station and it was fantastic. He never revealed what it would cost US if we were to try and build it. I went and priced out Baltic Birch and other higher end plywood and it is hard to afford. So I built mine out of 2x4 and regular 3/4 plywood.
I've purchased wood from Woodworkers Source and they are far from inexpensive, especially with the shipping that is involved. I guessed the sizes from what you had stacked up and it came to almost $2000. That was only for the wood you are using for your frame. Now I am sure you are getting the wood for a lower cost or for free or you would have gotten your lumbar local, but that is neither here nor there. It would be great to give a cost breakdown for regular people who will not get any deals like woodworkers on You Tube get. This would helpful in deciding if a project like the one you are building is within the means of the regular person. I am not getting on you for this, I am just stating that watching you build the things you do is entertaining and enjoyable but the projects can sometimes be out of our league. To be honest I don't think there are many makers who do this, other than Shop Nation on some of his builds. I you can't, or won't, that is fine. One of the comments had requested a supply list and you stated you have been talking to WWS about it so, if that happens, we could find out that way. Anyway, be safe and be blessed.
This is EXACTLY what I have been contemplating for over a year! I love your design and logic behind your choices. Thank you for the motivation to start building my hybrid workbench!
👍👍
I love your reaction when that top shelf pops into place…and yes, such a gratifying sound!
In regards to your questions:
- yes, I would love the plans for that workbench
- no, I don’t want to see you twist your ankle!
You are the best Tamar…love your content!!
Such a good feeling!!
been watching for a couple years now and admittedly have not watched much recently because of new hobbies (fishkeeping) but of course looking up aquarium builds brings me right back to my old hobby. your workshop looks like it's gone through some massive upgrades! let's get to 1 million subs, next!
oh and absolutely GORGEOUS workbench!!
Tamar you are just so talented and provide great content.
I'd like the plans. I've been going down the rabbit hole of all the great workbench videos on TH-cam these last several weeks. I was looking for your take on one as you have quickly become my favorite woodworking content creator. Imagine my surprise when I woke up this morning and saw this new video in my feed. Amazing timing! PS on another note, Im glad you are OK. Was slightly concerned not seeing anything new by you in a while. I figured "life happened", but I was selfishly worried you were getting out of the game. So happy to see that you are back, and ok. Looking forward to seeing your new shop take shape.
Perfect timing! Life always gets in the way… ha
You’re an inspiration for me and my videos 🥹
Can’t wait to build a bench like this.
you're the only female woodworker I follow. I learned a lot from you.
Great design. Yes to the plans. I have a garage shop like yours, and a combination work and assembly table sounds great. In terms of you injury, yes please share. Not trying to be gory in asking. I work in EMS, and am curious about how it happened. I am sorry to hear you were injured. So glad you are on the mend. Please take it easy so it can heal properly. I would rather wait on a video and make sure you heal well.
I show the video to everyone in real life. Ha. I thought it was weird the dr didn’t want to see it… 😂
Beautiful work, Tamar! The workbench is looking amazing!!! 😃
Looking forward to the next part! And get better soon!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks so much!
Amazing attention to detail, I think your work table will serve you well, Tamar. Take care of that ankle, and stay on the mend.
I love the PiP look at moving the bench around during the ad. Great idea!
Glad you liked that part!
Was glad to see you using the bench top router table for your 6-in-1 in an actual large project. This made my purchase all the more satisfying!
Yeah! I didn’t want to swap to the 1/4” collet on the big table. So figured I’d just keep them both set up 😂

You've come a long way from that detached garage shop! The shot of you concentrating at the drill press with the pencil in your mouth is priceless. That new planer looks amazing! Thanks for sharing
Hahaha I thought that was funny too when I watched it the first time
YES!!!
1. I’ve been waiting for this build.
2. Plans, please.
3. Ankle ‘safety’ video, of course.
THANKS.
Haha awesome. You got it
@@3x3CustomTamar I’m thinking you injured your ankle skateboarding or jumping off your new workbench. 😉 BTW, I think your hybrid workbench design is an awesome combination and smart choice for your needs. I’m looking forward to your next video on your dream workbench. Belated congrats on your successful project with JKM. I’ve used your baseplate for years and been a subscriber w/notifications forever. I too am a female woodworker, although it’s not my profession. I’m slowly trying to get my new shop downsized, organized, and built. Lots of work for this 64yo!
The table design is very efficient. Yes most of the time these builds take time even more so after an injury. Take care of that ankle, my wife sprained hers very badly and it lingered. Take care and love your new shop table 👌
Ugh it’s been lingering. I still can’t walk down the stairs normally or run…
Great job as always Tamar. Hope you are feeling better now! My God long time since I watched a video from you!... And I think you where just moving to the new shop...
Tamar,
Of course I want to see the ankle sprain!
I enjoyed your use of the skate board as a transport device. Also your knee clamp. Might I suggest the elbow clamp, chin clamp and forehead clamps as well. They have all worked well for me on past projects.
Agree I’d love to see what happened that caused the injury and maybe your thoughts on if there is anything you learned from it. On my own experience I was carrying a half sheet of 3/4 and tripped over a power cord and fell myself but luckily nothing sprained. I committed to not have ANY obstructions on the floor area and am feeding my power top down and working on getting my last dust tube off my floor. Been watching you for a while and was admiring how your shop seems to be about a year ahead of my shop in terms of tools and capabilities.
Yes, the use of the skateboard dolly made me giggle 🤭 Use what you have though! 👍🏻
Haha I have utilized those as well… good clamps to have 😂
Like the bench HATE the ads
I like the ability to feed my children. So don’t really care. Ha.
Nice high end tools, it is a blessing to be able to have the equipment you need to complete a job, better if you have good tools. I always say, one use tools, go cheap, heavy use… well you guessed it high end or the best you can afford. I thank you for the privilege and the opportunity to gain so of your knowledge.
Hi Tamara. Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦. I wish you a speedy recovery on your ankle sprain. Wow, this bench looks amazing. The center dividing section is an awesome idea. Can't wait for the next video..... .. no pressure since you are not fully mobile. ✌️
Thanks so much! I was very excited about this idea
The bench is looking awesome so far! What a bummer about your ankle. Injury setbacks can be very frustrating. Also, it's awesome seeing your shop filling up with all of these amazing new tools! It's cool to see how far your shop has come from no jointer and a jobsite table saw to what it is today. All that hard work is paying off!
Thanks so much! That first time using the jointer was one very exciting moment. Ha
