It’s been weeks since I posted any updates on my workbench build. I continue to work on it ever so slowly, taking what bit of time I can between home, work and family.
I’ve spent the majority of the time planing surfaces. I’ve collected about 2 1/2 garbage bags of shavings. Some I’ve already used to make firestarters.
It became easier to plane once I filled in the knots with CA glue. The overall bench top is now 28.75″ trying to plan out the lumber’s round edges. This a good size I think.
I also spent time cleaning and sharpening 2 #4’s I picked up: one is a scrub plane, the other is my newly used #4 stanley.
Next steps: Cut and plane bottom rails and Bearers.
