A classic woodworking bench

[ssdave]

I bought a classic woodworking bench at an estate sale today for $100. Real nice construction, well thought out drawers and a solid 2x4 top. A columbian 1/2 turn quick acting vise, and a craftsman quick release vise on the other end.

Bought all the small parts cabinets full of hardware for $2.50 each, and the really unusual disc and flat jointer type sander for another $25. Throw in a set of atlas lathe change gears, two boxes of molding plane shaper blades, a few plomb and SK sockets and a proto 3/4" L handle and a hollow auger tenon dowel cutter for another $2.50 and I had $155 worth of stuff.

Already installed the workbench in the shop and using it to help finish the shop and house.
