EAA Workbenches completed!

The plans worked very well, and are found here and here.  Note one error on the PDF plans:  on the first page, cuts in fourteen 2x4s and one 4x8' MDF are shown; however, the MDF cuts should be two of each of the 24x60" and 24x50" pieces.  The plans also state using 1/2" plywood for the shelf, but at Home Depot (at least in my town), 1/2" MDF was cheaper, and looks better, so I went with that.  3/4" MDF would work as well.  Regardless, these are two VERY stable tables, and will be excellent platforms on which to build an airplane.  Kudos to EAA Chapter 1000 for designing such nice workbenches!

Here are the near-final workbenches:
