    My Dad built this one for my son's birthday on 10/4 . He is gonna flip . He also has made 8 videos during the build showing Ike how it was done . I think it is outstanding . My dad says he is going to start building and selling them but being able to watch Grandpa make this for him is something he will have forever and I bet will bring him joy till he is 80 .

          Here's the one I had at the old house. Folds away when not in use. Especially useful if you have limited space in your garage.

          I need to get off my butt and build a new workbench for the new house. I haven't done any significant woodworking since Carpenter was born... Which is a little ironic..

                  It's different (just like my Dad) but Ike thinks its awesome . It may not be great for doing his homework but at least it will last .
