Default Bench Zilla

For those folks who have been following the progress of my new shop, you know that I needed to build a center island workbench. For the last 6 months or so, I have been catching my breath from construction duties and enjoying my new space. I finally decided to finish this project so here it is... The bench measures 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 feet and weighs around 500 lbs. It's built out of New Zealand Pine using authentic raised panel construction methods. It has a built-in table saw, a vacuum dust collection system, an air compressor, it's own electrical system, 6 custom tool drawers and 3 foot balsa storage. That's about all I can say, and so now I think I'm ready for the winter building season! Thanks for looking!
