Great bench and vise!  Is the scroll-work top edge of the vise chop functional, or just decorative?  My vise chop is long (almost 24") and is straight.  There are areas along its length that seem to hold work better.  Your shaped edge might address that.  I don't really know.  Let us know how this works for you.

I made a sheath for a small draw knife.

Mike B:

Thanks, yes it's functional, does help with alignment of stock, especially from the bottom...

OK, I am going to cheat because this was my first sale and I'm pretty happy. I learned how to refinish furniture doing my household furniture. I like doing it, so recently I decided to turn it into a sort of side hustle. I have started buying an occasional piece of furniture on Craigslist, refinishing it and reselling. My first sale today:

Before, a 1950s more or less mahogany veneer drop leaf table. $60 on CL:

After, I stripped it and french polished it.

After, after, I sold it today.

Needed a small tote, to hold all the Yankee stuff.    Then it has to fit IN a drawer on the new dresser...

Had a long piece  of scrap 1x6....and added dovetail pins, thinking I could use the longer board as a bottom to these two shorter boards..
[attachment=1273]
Ran into a problem with the grain directions...sooooo, the "bottom" became a side.    Did not have a second long board...

But, I had a few pieces of 1/4" plywood scraps.   Added a brace along one edge, to have a place to nail and glue the plywood to..and clamped it up..
[attachment=1275]
letting the glue sit, overnight.   Maybe later today,I can add a handle, and maybe a divider, or two.    Just so I can stash all of these away in Drawer #4..
[attachment=1276]
And these are just half of what I need to stash...including that Stanley #70  Box Scraper .......If you want, I can post the completed pictures, later?

I welcomed some sunlight and a new Hemmings Classic Car magazine at the house this afternoon.  Also have laid-in 4 corners on a little gift box to finish later:
