This is my Holtzapffel workbench I built for the workshop competition. Though the competition did not require it, I built this bench start-to-finish within the window. I started August 8, and finished installing the vise Sept 23. I based it off Chris Schwarz's plans and chapter in his second workbench book, though I changed some dimensions slightly. It is 7 feet long, about 32" tall to fit my 5' 7" stature, and 23" wide and It is built out of Douglas fir. It is constructed with draw bored mortise and tenon joinery. This was my first time building with mortise and tenons as well as chopping mortises by hand. It also marked a time where I did quite a bit of updates to my shop, so you will notice lots of mess in my shop during this build not only from the build itself, but from painting my garage, building a lumber rack, moving things around, and getting rid of some clutter during the build. It is replacing my rickety workbench I built when I first started. I'm already amazed at how well this bench works. It's a night-and-day difference compared to my old bench. I'm greatly looking forward to building more projects on a bench that is heavy, stiff, and allows for versatile workholding. More details to follow with each photo. If you want to see more photos, I do have an instagram account where I share much more gratuitous amounts of photos of my projects @PoitrasWW. Thank you for visiting my build!
