Tired of your projects slipping?  Join Cody as he explores the world of traditional woodworking workbenches and the time-tested methods for holding work securely. He’ll break down classic bench styles like the Roubo, Nicholson, and Scandinavian designs, explaining their strengths and how they accommodate different woodworking techniques.  Cody will also dive into the essential work-holding methods, from traditional holdfasts and bench dogs to modern quick-release vises and T-track systems. Whether you’re a hand-tool purist or looking to blend traditional and modern techniques, this discussion will help you choose the right setup for precision and efficiency in your craft!
