A fresh take on an old plan yields a bench that’s builder friendly and nicely appointed. Shop-made jigs take care "of tricky joinery. Designed decades ago by Carlyle Lynch, a renowned teacher, draftsman, and woodworker, this bench fits the needs of woodworkers from any era. Our only departure from the original is the knockdown hardware in the base. We wanted to make sure that you can bring the bench to your next bigger shop."
