Materials Used: | Wood (spruce planks), threaded rods, lock nuts, wood glue |
Tools Used: | 10 mm spade drill bit, 20 mm Forstner bit, 19 mm auger bit, clamps, plane |
Approx. Cost: | approx. 50 € so far (very cheap wood...) |
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 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...
- legs (800 × 100 × 80 mm spruce planks) will be connected to each other by a frame at the bottom, perhaps with a storage floor
- the bench may still have to be bolted to the wall for maximum stability, we'll see!
- holes for holdfasts will be added as needed, the first one was already drilled when the tenons on the legs needed to be cut
