Weekend Workbench.

Later, the foam serves as a flat work surface, letting me assemble the bench without needing another bench - a common problem with other bench designs. Also, if the vise ends up more than 6 in. or so from a side apron or bracing, add another strip of bracing next to it for more support. To bolt the vise in place, you'll need to add blocking to the MDF top and the apron. The Wonder Pup is an adjustable bar that pinches stock against a benchdog, letting you edge-plane long stock on the bench - which is more secure than doing it in the front vise.
