Rob gives a very detailed description of the build process and all the attention to detail that you’ve come to know and love about him to get the most accuracy throughout this build. I watched the video a few times and started with a crosscut sled build this past weekend. Next will be the legs and stretchers when I get the sled finished. I’m modifying the design a bit to add a bolt-on oak tail vise I’ll make before starting the MDF table. I already have the 1 3/16” x 18” screw and want to use that. Plans seem very adaptable for this kind of mod. He talks about the crosscut sled and he said in the video he didn’t have one large enough for the table so I made mine large enough for a 22” panel. Also, looked up the 5 cut process Luther talks about to get it crazy accurate.

Excellent video, all phases well explained, just like being in the shop with you. Looking forward to building the bench.

First off, I love everything Rob Cosman, so this is not a dig in any way. I really wanted to build this bench and ordered the plans with that intention. Once I started watching the videos I realized I had a serious lack of tools to complete the build. It would help a lot if there was a required tool list mentioned BEFORE making the purchase. The amount of extra tools I'd need far outweigh the cost savings of such a bench.

The overall concept and design is excellent. The video is extremely helpful. Bench can be easily customized if one desired. Customer service is also top tier. Highly recommended.

I was working on it in the garage when the pizza delivery guy came to deliver my pizza. He said "Wow thats an awesome bench! Do you do custom orders for those?" I give 95% credit to Rob for that one.

Overall, the video was very helpful.
I did have to keep in mind the numerous errors in dimensions. Fortunately, most of them had some post edit corrections in the form of text to point out those errors. The parts that I kept saying to myself, "What?! What won't work, or just why?", was when Rob and Luther would mutter amongst themselves, or give knowing glances, but not explain to the audience why they decides not to do something or to change something. An explanation for the audience would have been nice in order to prevent us from perhaps making the same mistake. For instance, when Rob started to build the trestles around the form he made, he rotated the form several times and told Luther, "We'll, sometimes things just go wrong." What was the issue?
Anyway, I will proceed with building my workbench as soon as the weather gets a little nicer. I did submit just one or two questions I thought were important, one in response to an email from Rob, the other through you "Contact Us" email. Didn't get a reply to either.
