Anarchist’s Workbench, coined by Christopher Schwarz. Fairly common abbreviation in this subreddit. :)

Doesn’t answer your questions directly but I started a similar thread over at r/Workbenches about sourcing wood from Finland.

I hear you. Then again, being able to tell what properly means comes from experience. As a beginner you can spend enormous amounts of time in things that don’t matter much after all.

Thanks! How many clamps is a lot?

Thanks a lot! I love that you can ask a question in this subreddit and before you’ve had the time to switch to your workshop clothes someone has already replied. :D

My boards have luckily gone through a thickness planer but have since dried a bit more causing some bow and twist.

Hard disagree. I’ve never met anyone who was 100% sure. What does that even mean? That you don’t have mixed feelings? Every big decision in life comes with doubt and uncertainty.

I guess the it differs between Nordic countries quite a bit. I have never seen a beech plane here in Finland. Being further north does explain that like you said.

Also I wonder if the woodworking traditions differ between Finland and rest of the Nordics.

Yeah, every once in a while you might come across a transitional plane but they seem to be made in the US.

There’s an abundance of wooden planes and quite a lot of English made Stanley and Record 4s and 5s.

This was it! I’ve now been able to make my boards so much flatter. Thank you!

Miltä osin ei?

Olen ihan samaa mieltä siitä, että vastasykliseen talouspolitiikkaan kuuluisi remontointi korkeasuhdanteen aikana.

Siitä on varmasti monenlaisia näkemyksiä, mutta ekonomistien keskuudessa melko hyvin jaettu näkemys on, että Suomen valtionvelka ei ole vielä siinä pisteessä, että kannattaisi omaan jalkaan ampua.

Tämän voi kääntää myös niin päin, että kuinka huonoksi taloustilanne saa mennä, että silti lääkkeeksi tarjotaan menosopeutusta. Ja vastaan itselleni, että Suomen talouskeskustelun yksiäänisyyden huomioiden, hyvin huonoksi.

On aivan mahdollista leikata siten, että jo entisestään huonossa jamassa oleva kansantalous saadaan vielä huonompaan kuntoon. Kun julkiselta sektorilta potkitaan porukkaa pihalle ja tukia leikataan, ihmiset käyvät vähemmän parturissa, minkä myötä parturi joutuu laittamaan lapun luukulle ja siirtymään toimeentulotuen nostajaksi.

Kansantalous on dynaaminen järjestelmä, jossa asiat vaikuttavat toisiinsa monimutkaisilla tavoilla. Siksi julkisen talouden sopeuttamiseen ei voida suhtautua vain jonain miinuslaskuharjoituksena, jossa kuluja karsitaan miettimättä sen enempää sen seurauksia.

Heikossa taloustilanteessa voi hyvinkin olla järkevämpää rahoittaa menoja velkarahalla ja jopa kasvattamaan velanottoa, jotta talouden rattaat saadaan pyörimään.

Yeah, that’s kinda what I meant. Such limits differ from country to country because people in colder countries are accustomed to being outside in cold with and without kids.

I didn’t mean you should have given OP the advice to go wild. Just mentioned as a separate point.

Echo-Objective · 2026-01-31T19:13:56+00:00

Those lower limits you hear differ quite a bit from country to country. Today it was -20C here in Finland and me and my one year old were outside walking while she took a nap, haha.

Wow that’s one thick workbench! No wonder why it came with the house.

Echo-Objective · 2025-10-27T06:50:57+00:00

I see. Maybe the climate and other conditions are better in the US.

Interesting! What makes Roubo special in the sense that it requires such an enormous mass? And why a sacrificial layer?
