I agree with you completely. I own both books and I have studied each. Every time I read them I learn something worthwhile. Each book is worth far more than its price.
Excellent recommendation.

Thanks.

I purchased the red one "Design your workbench". Definitly worth the money. Thank you kindly for the review! Awesome

I've been considering building a workbench for my garage shop.  After your review I will take a closer look at these as resources and possibly add them to my book collection.  Thanks for the review

Got the "Workbenches" book. It was a great read and eye-opening. Now I can plan my next workbench with good information, and not just throw it together.

When I was just starting to build my workbench, I came upon these books. They were completely invaluable, because I would have most likely made mistakes in my design and left out features that are really needed.

We've missed your videos. Hopefully you'll return full force very soon.

Thanks, I really enjoy these book review videos.

I should have known about these two books before I built my rudimentary garage wood working workbench.
Well, I guess I have my next project cut out for me, now.
🙂👍🇨🇦

I own both of these books. I have them in my large queue of need to read books.

Nice review James, I might have to buy them one at a time .... but they will both be in my WW library soon ! Another edition I plan on snapping up is the 2nd hybrid WW book from Spags 😎

*Good to see you posting videos again. I hope you have been making a bunch of money on the side and that is the reason why you have been neglecting us.*

Hi James,
The link goes (understandably), to the US site. Is there a way I can buy one on the UK site and you still get the credit?
Thank yiu

Stumpy is like the LeVar Burton of woodworking books... of course you don't have to take my word for it

Doggone it, James! You're a bit late.
One of the sales guys at Rockler told me about the blue book after a demo a couple weeks ago. I bought it and have been reading it. Now I can't (or don't want to) purchase it (again) thru your link. Sorry!
Maybe I'll come back later and buy the red one.
Thanks for the excellent book review. I'm about halfway through the blue book and have already learned a few things that I've never seen meantioned elsewhere.

My awesome workbench is nothing more than a catchall...

Chris who? Oh yeah, the work bench, hand tool and all around woodworking guru. Just saying, I don't think he can cook.
