So I finished my first workbench. Its 49 x 24 with a 7" vise. The top has a array of 3/4" holes for hold-downs and bench dogs. The front jaw of the vise as well.
The top is 3 3/4" layers of MDF skinned with 1/4" hardboard.
The thing is on casters so it can be moved around our small shop/laundry.
Finally, I found a used 15" drill press, so not more excuses.
I have the requisite minimum set of power tools to build. So.. Onward!!!!! Oh, and the Ikea counter top is now, of course, dead flat. It will end up being the top of bench #2, whenever that happens
