Standing works well for me,been modeling that way for 20 years now,no trouble with my hands,but who knows when I get older though,and a stool would work just fine also if I chose to.

Thanks

I doubt a stool, or anything really, would work well since there is a bottom shelf. No place to put your feet. I do my day job standing but I haven't tried modeling standing. I am not sure I could keep my hands steady without resting them on a surface.

I type on a tablet. Please excuse the terseness and the autocorrect. Not to mention the erors.

Do you model standing up? That doesn't appear to have space for a chair.
 

Yes,I have never sat for modeling,but a stool would work with it.

The very cleanliness of the bench makes me a bit twitchy.  Big Smile

Got er done

Not too bad,after all,I have completed a lot of Dragon kits.So I want an additional smaller table,a worklight,have to decide how to set up.Plus still got some stuff to do around the new house,but bench time is within sight now.Can't believe it will be 1 month short of two years when I restart.

How long do we wait before sending the big dog with the cask around his neck? 1 week? 2 Weeks? Wink

Oh wow, that does look nice! 

Would like to see her pristine before you get paint splashed all over it!

Bet I can safely speak for most when I say we want an WIP thread on the workbench. With pictures, of course.

 

Thats funny,didnt think of that,will definitely post the finished product.

Ya better pack a lunch. Looks like an all day job. Plus, I'm envious. Nice table.

OK. In the stash: Way too much to build in one lifetime...

Looks really nice. What are it's dimentions?

 

It's 46" wide,can't remember the rest.

I will probably add either another table style bench or a sturdy fold up table alongside for extra work projects,or just spreading out.
