A "Roubo" workbench a traditional French woodworking bench (Hobelbank) as described by André Roubo in the 18th century. It has many nice features and work holding options so we began building one.
While the following build is largely inspired by the old sketches, many features and construction techniques were chosen based on what was desired and possible at the time.
Notes
- final plate size: 1800 × 800 × 60 mm
- made of ten 2000 × 80 × 60 mm spruce/fir planks
- not jointed - glue reinforced by three M8 threaded rods
- 10 mm holes for the rods, outmost planks counterbored with 20 mm Forstner bit to receive nuts
- counterbore should have been the first hole to drill...
