The Workbench Book - Scott Landis

The Workbench Book: A Craftsman's Guide to Workbenches for Every Type of Woodworking. Author, Scott Landis

Probably more than any other tool in the shop, the custom workbench reflects the personality and experience of its maker. And for the great majority of makers, the construction of a workbench is a labor of love. In The Workbench Book, Scott Landis examines benches for all kinds of woodworking - from a traditional Shaker bench to a mass-produced 'Workmate'.

There are benches for cabinetmakers, boatbuilders, carvers, and country chairmakers. In each case, detailed photos and illustrations show how the bench works and help guide you through the tough parts in its construction. With 19 pages of measured drawings, two chapters on vises, and a list of sources of supply, this is one of woodworking's all-time classic books.

This new 248-page hardbound edition from Lost Art Press ensures The Workbench Book will be available to future generations of woodworkers. Produced and printed in the United States, this classic text is printed on FSC-certified recycled paper and features a durable sewn binding designed to last generations. The 1987 text remains the same in this edition and includes a foreword by Christopher Schwarz.
