Last week I went down to Maryland for a visit and got a sneak peak of my jewelry bench; My wonderful Grandfather is building this for me! It’s solid as a rock and 7 feet long! Once it’s finished I’ll post more pictures of it in the studio. Thanks Grandad!

Valerie, I’ve admired your grandfather’s beautiful woodworking and cabinetry for many, many years. Please pass along my compliments and best wishes! You are sooo lucky! Wendy
Wow!! I’m so jealous. That will last for a millenium!
That is simply one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. My Dad was a carpenter and I love wood…I can just smell the sawdust!
Not only is it BEAUTIFUL but the fact that your grandfather made it by hand makes it an heirloom and a muse all rolled into one. Creativity and fine craftsmanship runs in the family.
Regards,
Lynn
Wow! That is one amazing bench!!! Your Grandad is very talented as well as generous.
That is a gorgeous workbench. You are very fortunate to have the love and support of your grandfather.
I am thoroughly envious. What a stunning bench that is.
That is one really nice bench. Use and enjoy it well

Wow, he is so proud of you!
Thanks for the comments! My grandfather is a retired carpenter/cabinet maker and I’m the only grandchild that is into tools! So I am very lucky!
Wow, that’s beautiful!
Need an apprentice to help you out using that nice new bench? I have 35 years working in jewelry…I should be a fast learner!?
That is a heirloom bench. You Grandad sure loves you. Now if you ever lack space for that I’ll be more than happy to store it for you.
