The holes faced inside the bench, which made lining up the hole in the benchcrafted vise somewhat tricky. If I had reversed the strip such that the holes were centered in that portion, the vise lineup would have been a breeze. Live and learn!

The bench looks great. Anything you'd change? Any mistakes you want to tell me to avoid on mine? Thanks.

Is this the same principle as a breadboard end or is it just aesthetic symmetry? Really nice looking and I would love to see your build of the leg vise cross. I have been mulling that one over myself. Jon,

It looks great and I'm sure that it will serve you for many years to come! A Roubo style bench is now a must for in my shop...I'm thinking black walnut for the end caps...hmmm...
