Fine Woodworking's New-Fangled Workbench Plan

Dissatisfied with traditional workbenches, veteran woodworker John White designed this version in Douglas fir with MDF surfaces. Instead of the usual front and tail vices, it incorporates pipe clamps into the top, front apron, and legs so that it can easily hold any size workpiece.
