Looking sweet with the new African rosewood insert. The tool tray was just too big and too tempting to fill with junk.4yr ⋅ snipersixsix ⋅ r/Workbenches
Really enjoying making my Japanese inspired bench top benches! Wenge with zebrano plugs. Sanded to 2000 no need to oil this. Feels like glass. !! Top tip. Wear a mask when working with this. It’s a nasty wood to work with and the splinters are evil. But worth it if you are careful.4yr ⋅ snipersixsix ⋅ r/Workbenches
A strange piece I’ve had lurking in the workshop for years. So I thought I’d start to clean it up. A piece of London underground’s rail. I wonder how many people have passed over it. And their stories. !!2yr ⋅ snipersixsix ⋅ r/interestingasfuck
