Roubo Workbench Part 1
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 มิ.ย. 2020
- In this video I’m starting on a split top Roubo style workbench of my own design. This video covers building the base of the workbench including milling, the lamination of the legs, the draw bored mortise and tenon joinery and the assembly of the base.

Love your US ARMY FLAG. I AM A RETIRED PARATROOPER
I've had the chance to use this table a couple of times now. It's fun to whip out in front of people:) I can see what people are talking about when they say the legs are delicate, but they're design to support a "mostly" vertical load, not be torqued from the side or pushed back into place. If you just let the table open or close on it's own and don't force anything, it works great th-cam.com/users/postUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh Once it's set up, it's pretty solid. My only gripe would probably be related to the clamps provided. They're not the highest quality. They do the job, so no big deal, but they could be better. All in all, pretty cool gadget.
Nice Shop. I’m just getting my shop set up. I’ve got a full cabinet Hitachi table saw, Boch 12 in Miter saw, a Delta 6 inch joiner, and table top drill press, Dewalt 13 in planer, Hitachi Scroll saw and Band Saw, plus a craftsman hand planer, Dewalt and Boch orbital sanders. Plus an assortment of hand saws and chisels. Now I need to get power to My shop.
As a Canadian I find that I am sort of in the middle of the metric/imperial systems. I am completely comfortable using either. That being said, with woodworking I eventually switched completely to metric and my accuracy has increased greatly because of it.
I learned the upside of the metric system when I lived in Germany years ago. It can definitely make things easier and more accurate
In the UK we still use both, but it’s roughly marked by a generation split between baby boomers and gen x. When working on jobs with my dad I switch to imperial. His bench is imperial, mine is metric.
Love the clean shop and the craftsmanship!!
Thanks!
Great work! Can’t wait for the next video
I am amazed by your cleanliness and order in your woodshop and I wish I could afford all those great tools and the great wood you are using for this build. Ten thumbs up!
I have spent quite a bit of time by a tablesaw in my previous job and I have seen and experienced some scary moments with this helpful tool. I am not trying to be a besserwisser here but one of the main things about using a table saw over time is to establish good safety habits. The prime one in my book is where you place yourself when using the saw, and especially so when ripping.
At 1:35 ish into your video all the safety bells in my head was chiming... I am sure this is not how you usually place yourself when ripping boards but if it is PLEASE change your stand so that you are not exactly behind the sawblade. Take my word for it - even with a riving knife attached it is not IF a kick will happen it is WHEN a kick will happen.
I hop I will some day be able to make a bench as beautiful and sturdy as this one. Happy woodworking!
I use draw boarding all the time when using dowels
I just bought my Benchcrafted sliding vise kit today. Awesome build series, amazingly helpful. Thank you.
That’s a solid choice for a vise. Good luck with your build!
Nice 👍
Gr8 vid Thank you😇
Great work congrats.
I thought I was the only one who used my pencil sharpener for that.. made my day
It works perfectly!
That Jeep grill is sacrilege! A Jeep grill always has seven vertical bars, and only seven vertical bars!
That one is my wife’s. Mine is still stock lol
Good job buddy
Thank you!
Great!
Appreciate your honesty. I enjoy wood working but one downfall is I have a slight case of dyslexia. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve written 45” instead of 54” or cut the dove instead of the waste EVEN though the waste has been marked. But we move forward!
Our shop once built a large 42” wide chest for an installation 3000 miles away. It wasn’t supposed to be 3’ 6” wide... sigh. We laughed about it years later, and still do decades later. But it cost us plenty. Let’s say what it taught us, was how to be very clear when calling out dimensions on paper.
Yeah, I’ll never make that mistake again
Out of curiosity, are you in some sort of event production in your day job? I notice your router is using true1 connections.
What I do when there are multiple possibilities for layout I use chalk to layout, in other words put the legs in there position and mark location of joints and hardware so it elements confusion when dedicating the execution. I know it sounds simple but when you have distractions it’s easy to be confused.
Awesome video - as usual. I might have missed it, but what are you building this out of? Base looks like it weighs a ton
Thanks Michael, come to think of it, I don’t think I mentioned. I’m building this out of Ash
Awesome man, love the series. What brand is your assembly mallet that you’re using? I love my Halder simplex mallet, but I wish I had one bigger like yours
It’s an off brand. I think I picked it up at Home Depot
Why did you decide to move away from the "traditional" double tenon-dovetailed leg joint?
I think that joint looks great, but it really isn’t necessary. The through wedged tenon will more than hold the top in place, so for me it was a matter of not complicating things more than I needed to.
@@EastOakWoodworking That's what I was thinking. The idea of transferring the dovetail layout to the other side of the benchtop sounds awfully finicky.
Καλημέρα Πολύ ωραίο βίντεο
What are the leg and stretcher dimensions for your workbench build? Nice job by the way and great video too!
Legs are 5 1/2” x 5 1/2” x 29 3/4” at the shoulder (plus the thickness of the top for the tenon) Stretchers are 1 3/4” x 4” x 18” for the short stretchers and 40” for the long ones
@@EastOakWoodworking thanks!!!
Are you using a brad point bit to drill the dog holes in the leg and top?
No, that’s an auger bit made for drilling dog holes. The “Brad point” is threaded to pull the bit through the wood.
@@EastOakWoodworking Thanks! I tried a normal auger bit and just about took my arm off with the drill press. Did you file down the threads on the auger bit to make it work?
@@bradlierman9708 This bit is designed for this. No need to modify it: amzn.to/3cNH2HW
@@EastOakWoodworking Wow, thanks so much. I've been racking my brain on that one. Read the reviews on these bits. They look amazing!
Not a Roubo workbench but nice job
What type of wood are you using?
It’s ash
What manufacturer of lifting wheels did you use and did they prove to reliably work over time?
Those particular ones were Whistler. Tickler has a similar design, and both brands work great. No issues at all.
@@EastOakWoodworking Many thanks, but a search for the name Whistler only produces an automobile wheel manufacturer. And a search for Tickler produces sex toys!
Sorry, Rockler. I was autocorrected
Yes metric is in a sense easier.....but as an aussie I also use and appreciate imperial measurement
Firstly, thank you for your service… Is that oak or ?
It’s Ash
How much total is this gonna set me back ballpark if I go with it?
It really depends on the lumber. The vise hardware is around $500 depending on what brand you choose. The lumber for mine was around $900, even the same wood in different regions can have huge variations in price. I also built mine pre-pandemic.
What table saw is that?
Delta 1460 lathe
Are the plans in metric?
where’s my big debut
You need to be here to be filmed
East Oak Woodworking was my facetime cameo not good enough for you?
Go Army beat Navy
2:53 No mate, the metric system is not better. It's dumbed down. I am an Englishman in the UK. Still prefer Imperial measurements.
No, the metric system is not better. It is still susceptible to math errors.
It is better, since you will only need to take care of math errors, instead of using 12 different length units
I cut 424mm instead of 442mm just the other day!
