Description
Ce livre est également offert en français.
In the newly updated and expanded version of his first book, originally published in 2007, Schwarz covers every aspect of designing and constructing a workbench.
Supplemented throughout with historical notations, the book includes full materials lists, exploded diagrams and instructions for building classic Nicholson and Roubo workbenches, along with new variations on those designs: a massive French oak bench and a knock-down English-style bench.
This edition also adds details on vises and other workholding devices and techniques, as well as appendices on Moxon-style vises and a “milkman's bench,” a compact bench that can be clamped to a table as a convenient alternative for those short on space. An invaluable reference for anyone interested in building a workbench.
