When buying a woodworkers bench, make sure that it is sufficiently stable, heavy and well equipped. The worktop should be made of hardwoods such as beech, oak or birch. We also recommend that you make sure that you can equip or extend the workbench to suit your needs if needed
This depends on the one hand on your own available space and on the other hand on what you intend to do with it. In our store you will find small mobile workbenches as well as stationary workbenches from a length of 870 mm to 2,650 mm. . In any case, make sure that there is enough space and freedom of movement between the workbench and other machines, cabinets, etc. If you need storage space, for example, you can equip your workbench with a base cabinet. Other useful workbench accessories.can be purchased as well.
The Pinie workbenches of the series "Profi" are equipped with two double spindle vices, the workbenches of the model "Profi Plus" with one double spindle vice and one single spindle The model "Profi II" have double spindel vices driven by a chain, therefore the jaws always remain parallel regardless of the clamping situation.
The workbenches from the Swedish manufacturer Sjöbergs have double spindle vices . On the "Elite" model, the vises can be mounted individually for left or right handers.
Compared to a normal workbench, a woodworkers bench is usually equipped with a very strong and heavy worktop and a stable frame that absorbs the strong pushing forces that occur, for example, during planing. In addition,there are normally two clamping options. On the left side you will find the front vice, on the right side the rear vice.( On some models the opposite is possible for laft-handers) The front vice is used to clamp workpieces vertically. The rear vice has two functions, either normal vertical clamping or, by using bench dogs you can also clamp your workpiece flat on the surface, i.e. horizontally.
A woodworkers bench is a stable, heavy workbench for woodworking and is essential for precise and safe working with wood. A good bench should not be missing in any workshop.
You should not carry out metal work on your workbench, as the metal chips can embed into the wood of the workbench and thus damage the workpiece.
We offer a wide range of bench accessories such as bench dogs, bench clamps, vices, edge protectors, worktop protectors and base cabinets. You can also fit your workbench with workbench rollers if you need to move your bench around the workshop.
We offer workbenches from the Swedish manufacturer Sjöbergs, as well as workbenches from the Czech manufacturer Pinie.

All our woodworking benches are already oiled. Sawdust and shavings can simply be swept or vacuumed off. However, we recommend that you treat the bench with a wood oil from time to time to prevent the wood from drying out and to preserve the surface. This prevents paint or wood glue from penetrating so quickly.
Wipe off fresh wood glue or paint immediately with a damp cloth. Dried wood glue or paint can be easily removed with a scraper.
