About the book >.>.> Here for the first time is the story of the workbench, the heart of the woodworker's shop. Written by Scott Landis, associate editor at The Taunton Press, The Workbench Book examines the world of workbenches, from Japan to rural America, from Scandinavian, English and Shaker-traditional styles to their contemporary derivatives. Nineteen pages of measured drawings, more than 100 additional drawings, and over 250 color and black-and- white photos show how the benches work and help lead you through the tough spots in their construction. You'll marvel at features you never dreamed of: an articulated carving vise, four different kinds of tail vise, a portable bench that tucks under your arm and stores away in a closet, six ways to make benchdogs and much more. There are workbenches for cabinetmakers, boatbuilders. carvers and country chairmakers. You'll find benches of walnut and padauk alongside benches of plywood and 2x4's. (MP)
