This review is from: The Workbench: A Complete Guide to Creating Your Perfect Bench (Hardcover)
This book has a lot of good ideas, great pictures and plans. I especially appreciate Schleining's review of what modern masters, including Sam Maloof and the late Tage Frid, are using/used. I would have liked to see more coverage of classic benches - only a couple of shaker benches and Henry Studley's (amazing) bench are included.

I have already built most of my bench but I sure wish I'd had this book before I got started. I would definitely have done things differently.

Workbench tops, bases, built-in cabinets, vises, hold-downs, deadmen etc. are all covered. I am looking to add a tail vice and several good plans are included.

This is a very good and quite complete book. Highly recommended.
