An Original Roubo Style Bench for Sale on E Bay


Browsing E Bay on a sunny Bank Holiday I came across this bench for sale.
It has the classic Roubo features, single slab top, leg vice and twin tenon through the top, with a dovetail one on the outside.

The front legs have the twin tenon but the less important rear legs just have the dovetail tenon.
It is a compact bench 56" long x 18" deep x 32" high with a working vice. The advert suggests it would make a nice kitchen feature, but surely it would be better in someone's workshop!
