Additional workbench furniture and equipment
Bought all your workbench
furniture, tools and machinery
and thought that you are just about to get going now. Well,
it may be time to have a look on some additional accessories
for your bench which might help speed up your daily work.
Whether it is special workbench furniture or additional
vises, all can be useful and you should be aware that these
products exist.
Workbench furniture and cabinets
Having made or bought your workbench is
one thing, but organize and arrange some workbench furniture
around it is equally important. First of all there is
the tool storage cabinet. You either have you tools hang
up just on the wall next to your workbench or you get
a special cabinet for it. In my workshop I have two separate
pieces of tool and machinery furniture. One to store
tools and machinery in and another one for all basic
workshop hardware. Everything really from screws to hinges,
dowels and bolts is stored in this additional workbench
furniture. Having a separate piece of furniture for all
your hand tools and hardware allows a dust free, clean
and safe storage.
Next to
good durable workbench furniture comes a range of additional
clamps and vises which might be useful. Especially for woodworking
workbenches the variety is nearly endless. From the traditional
square bench dogs, to special round once up to hold down
clamps all perfectly fitting into holes of the benchtop.
Amongst others have a look on special file clamps for sharpening
your hand saws as well as special carving clamps attached
to the workbench. These carving clamps give the woodcarver
and special firm hold of the work piece. All these clamps
just like additional workbench furniture make
work and clamping so much easier.
