Haven’t been able to work on the bench tops too much this week, but I have them mostly planed (still a good deal of twist to remove). It seems like the wood is twisting more after I plane it, so I guess I’ll just wait a week or two before I try to plane it all square for assembly. Not sure what else I can do.
I’m also posting a plan I drew up showing the overall size/shape of the bench. My plan is to get a 6″ Milwaukee vise from here: http://www.toolsforworkingwood.com/store/dept/TL/item/MS-HVISE/Milwaukee_Small_Woodworking_Vise_-_Made_in_USA
I am also planning to use a combination of holdfasts and a Veritas bench dog in place of a tail vise. I should be able to plane and glue up the legs and aprons and well boards over the next week while I wait for the tops to finish twisting on me so I can move onto joinery and putting it all together.
