Well… That’s a wrap on the BF/MFT workbench build. I literally couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. In fact, it’s kind of changed the way I’ve worked in the shop and hopefully you’ll see that in upcoming videos.

As for plans, I am doing my best to get something together for those that are interested. Give me a week and keep your eyes on this post for further developments.

Thank you for taking the time to document this entire process. It is very appreciated! When the video popped on my Youtube feed I knew what I was watching tonight.

You should reach out to TSO to see if they had a sales bump after the fourth video. I bought some stuff because of it.

Awesome build. Just wondering if you had made any progress on a cut list/plans for the BF/MFT?

Finally got around to watching the “launch”. Very cool! I love the versatility and the fact that you kept at it until you reached your vision of what it was supposed to be.

Big fan of your YouTube channel and especially the BF/MFT. During this quarantine I have been working on updating the shop, managed to get the Parf guide system and getting ready to make a new larger MFT table with systainer storage. Was going to make it from wood but every time I rewatch your videos I start vacillating between wood and alum extrusions. Your bench and Manor Woods bench have got me really curious to try the 8020. Is there any chance you will have your 8020 parts list completed anytime soon? Never worked with the 8020 before so without the benefit of someone’s experience I’d probably stay in my comfort zone and use wood...but the aluminum intrigues me.

Thank and I really enjoy your projects.

Cheers!

Hello and thank you for the invite. The BF/MFT Workbench video caught my attention as I built one using the 8020 product. I've watched all 4 video programs several times, very well done. Also I am looking forward learning more about the plans and accessories. Once again, thank you much.

Very inspiring Ryan. I’ve also had plenty of time to spend in the shop during the quarantine and pulled the trigger on the 8020 for this last week. Another vote for plans! I’d be willing to “make a donation” as this was a lot of work on your part and would be happy to contribute to the expense of the build and videos! Found a local guy who offered to CNC the top and provide the MDF for $100!! This will make things very repeatable once the top takes a beating over time.

Keep us posted on any improvements you come up with!

Thanks man!
