I noticed while I was putting together my six board chest that it was wobbling on the bench. Uh oh .. need to flatten.
Unbeknownst to me, some one else was also flattening his French Robou Oak Bench yesterday.

Now my bench isn’t made of incredibly old oak cut from monster slabs. It’s a bunch of Douglas fir 2×4 laminated together and it’s pretty nice stuff. I haven’t had the problems with fir that Joe has had with his bench and fir and, based on his experience, I’m glad I got the nicer stuff. Anyway, I really like my bench even though its only got a 3 1/2″ top. But I have to admit, I wish I was going to WIA so I could see the FORB landing. 😀
