Beautiful!

I'm almost sorry it will just be a workbench. Gorgeous enough to be in the living room!

hehe semi - broke now :)

I wouldve gotten a tail vise if only i knew panda has it!!!! But then that will force me to change my wb top.

I also would like to add an additional 1 - 1.5 feet to the length.

[timber715]

well now you know that Panda has them and you want the extension on your wb, what are you waiting for... go for it... :D

[beebeenator]

hmmmmmmmmm MAYBE!! But retrofitting my wb for the tailvise might get a little messy

Sorry, patented!

Seriously, didn't have any plans then. Just played it by ear. Had a small garden with orchids in our house in Cavite beside a farm, thought it would be nice to enjoy the cool air in a gazebo. Built the columns embedded in bricks. Benches attached to the columns. Even had a moveable picnic table. As I was at early stages of building the roof (while doing the trusses), SWMBO said it would be nice if it didn't have a roof to enjoy dinner under the stars, so left it at that.

Had a lot of wonderful evenings in it. At some point, we hung Christmas lights on the unfinished trusses.

We moved since then and the place is now being rented. The farm is now a low-cost subdivision. Orchids in the garden are gone. And the gazebo has since been eaten by termites. Good things never...

Nowadays, when I have any wooden structure on ground, I use Anti-termite solutions.
