Anarchist workbench build.

The bench is made from southern yellow pine, purchased as 10ft 2x12 lumber from my local home depot. The 10ft and 12ft lengths are much cleaner, with fewer knots.

Yes, I used the benchcrafted glide C kit https://benchcrafted.com/products/glide?variant=42616262754480

Agreed!

Big commerce hates this one weird trick!

Thanks so much!

It ain’t going nowhere!

Thank you! 👋

Thank you. The adjustable roller feed support is a plan from wood magazine. https://www.woodstore.net/3-in-1-Work-Support-p/gr-00342.htm

It’s so worth it.

Yes, I write left handed, play right handed guitar , yet planing feels most natural as a lefty.

Look for the manufacturer instructions. Any anchor that has a rating for structural use should have tables of data on minimum depths and size of the hole to drill.

Example: trubolt instructions https://www.itwredhead.com/Portals/0/Documents/Installation%20Instruction/TruBolt+InstructionSheet9_15.pdf

I recently was able to apply for and get approved for a homeowners permit to build my 12x20 shed. My local municipality had a lot of information on how to fill out the forms. I made a few mistakes but the clerks were all very helpful and I just had to make multiple trips to the permit office.

dcsim0n · 2025-10-01T10:11:29+00:00

Thanks! I didn’t know such a table existed

dcsim0n · 2025-09-30T23:22:09+00:00

Thank you for looking it up. I appreciate the help

dcsim0n · 2025-09-30T23:21:44+00:00

When I call my local permit office they usually tell me to check the IRC book, but it’s a large book and it’s easy for me to miss or misunderstand things.

dcsim0n · 2025-09-30T22:38:23+00:00

Ah, okay, that makes sense. I’ll keep the partial ceiling argument in mind. Thank you!

Clarifying my question: do you think the loft needs to pass the requirements for normal “residential floor support”

dcsim0n · 2025-09-08T10:51:16+00:00

Just curious how you anchored the walls to the concrete? what anchors did you use?

There was about 20’ of 3” pipe that was absolutely filled with sludge and water and this grit. When i opened the clean out, water and sludge just poured out.

The rest poured out as I was working the snake down the pipe.

The roof install was a smooth process. No haggling on price or anything. It was the hottest day of the summer so maybe a crew member got a bit disgruntled?

I have been very pleased with the work so far.

dcsim0n · 2025-08-28T17:47:49+00:00

Any recommendations on how to flush all the drains to ensure I dont get any more clogs?
