      Hi John, Beautiful work bench. I am moving to Bracebridge in July but doubt that I will ever actually use a workbench.

    • @JohnHeisz

      Good luck with the move :)

    Can we all just take a sec to appreciate all the work it takes for John too even make a video like this. Just editing alone is astounding not even to mention the building and filming of it.
    Always enjoyed your videos John

      Don't forget with today's prices of wood, he's surrounded by millions of dollars. It's not like it grows on trees. 😕

    I am always impressed with the homemade table saw. I notice it in every single video

    Probably one of the finest practical builds on TH-cam

  • @davelowe1977
    @davelowe1977 3 ปีที่แล้ว +27

    Not only is the build brilliant but this video really was a pleasure to look at. The lighting, focus, colour balance, depth of field, framing and sound were all spot on.

    I'd never guess it was made with MDF and plywood in the middle. Great work there John!

  • @AquaPeet
    @AquaPeet 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Awesome, John!! Not only does it look like it could do its job well for years and years; it is so pleasing to the eye with all the beautiful details.
    Something to be proud of, 'even' as an advanced woodworker.

    Beautiful bench, John - nothing else like it on the planet! I love the use of laminated MDF for the top's core - that's gotta be one seriously dense surface! Creative genius on full display. Again. :)

    Best bench build ever on TH-cam, certainly if you consider that it's build with minimal tools and John designed it from A to Z with easy to find materials that doesn't cost you an arm and a leg. Congrats on this beautiful build John 👏👏. If there is a price ” best value for your money ” you win it! No competition.!

    I'm not as far north as you, but this morning it's 38*f in my shop! Great video, as always. I've learned so much watching you and I'm still learning. I'm finally going to build myself a quality workbench that'll last. My current bench/outfeed table/assembly table was slapped together out of necessity and I'm not happy with it. Watching this video I realized this is the perfect bench for me and exactly the right size for my small shop. I bought the plans and will build this when it warms up a little! Thank you for all the great videos and information you provide us. Oh, I also joined Makers Mob.

      What gets me is the comments of folks complaining about the fact that they cannot do these things because they don't have, or can't afford all the awesome tools. They could make those tools too. There are so many videos on this channel showing how to do it. Some just like to complain. SMH

    Hey John! This is my third time watching this workbench build. I think everything you build from the art pieces to the clamps is brilliant, but this workbench is exceptional to me. It itself is an art piece, being both functional and beautiful. You are very clever and love watching you create and seeing no Bessy Clamps in your shop. Personally, they are just another overpriced, over-marketed tool that you sir, have proven handmade clamps can be made better than commercial clamps for way less money. I would love for you to do a tour of your kitchen, and studio. Perhaps that could be a video to use when you don't feel like building somnething? Just a thought. Have a great weekend!!
