Joe,
I saw that split top bench with the baton in the video and decided not to bring that up. But it’s exactly what got me to thinking about a wider bench top.
Thanks for the picture of your bench. That’s the design I started from in my head and on paper. The bench I built in Washington had the slab with the vice at about the same width as yours. I really think that IF any change is called for then it would be to make that wider and either push the well back a bit or make it narrower
I was considering a 4′ bench. My reservation is not so much space as it is mass. I don’t think that would be heavy enough.
Again, thanks for the response. Just the kind of real world experience I was looking for.
John
