This is the original Moravian Workbench that Will Myers based his reproduction workbenches after:
Wkfinetools.com no longer has up the articles on this Moravian workbench. Could they be made available somewhere else?
Will Myers told me that WK ended their website. But I don’t believe that Will ever had a Moravian workbench tutorial there…it was roubo workbench.

He’s got the build description up here: https://eclecticmechanicals.files.wordpress.com/2018/08/themoravianworkbenchbywillmyers.pdf
it’s not ‘plans’. it’s a partial sketch (in pseudo-engineering manner). about 50% of necessary information is missing.
w/o a paid DVD (which costs a lot, 2 my opinion) these ‘plans’ r of little use.
The same plans that come with the DVD are the ones we offer for free. And no, 50% of information isn’t missing. I’ve built 5 of them with these plans. And no, the cost of the DVD is very affordable compared with the nearly $2k it costs to go to the class at the Woodwright’s School.
sorry in advance if the following sounds 2 blunt/impolite/disrespectful 2 u guys. i meant no offense. I don’t really want 2 argue, because I don’t know what kind of level of formal engineering standards woodworkers follow. May b what u call ‘plans’ are some kind of sketches which ‘sensible’ (now we need 2 define ‘sensible’) woodworker will figure out easily. 2 me, a standard plan/design would follow engineering standards like https://www.cobanengineering.com/GeometricDimensioningAndTolerancing/TechnicalDrawingLines.asp where myself (as a woodworking dummy but able 2 read standard engineering design papers) would b able 2 easily find all the necessary dimensions, c hidden lines and figure… Read more »
Thousands of woodworkers have made this workbench with the video and the plans. But there are occasional woodworkers (usually engineers) who are too afraid to make anything without incredible detail. This is not how historical woodworkers worked.
yeah, u c… the key word here is
woodworkers. I’m not yet a woodworker but most of the time a nit-picker… :(but having an idea delivered (and yes, it has been delivered w/this plans and Will’s web-page) is already pretty good and I appreciate it.
Also, Will himself called the ‘plans’ ‘a measured drawing with major dimensions’.
