Paul Sellers does a couple of workbench project builds which are worth a watch.First things first, I need to build a workshop! Then I need a decent workbench, nothing posh, just something able to clamp the wood I working on firmly to be able to use a plane.
a friend has a big ol' silky zubat. Very jealous. Lovely bit of kit. There must be some good alternatives out there though, Husqvarna do anything like that?
Someone here, I forget, recommended something similar to a Silky but not as costly. I don’t mind the cost really. I used my Zubat all the time as a tree surgeon, had it years and only replaced the blade three times. It has had some serious use and abuse, even 6” thick dry Beech when out camping and needing to keep the fire going overnight.
My mate in question is a tree surgeon although he finds the zubat a bit unwieldy up in the trees... which is a bonus as on occasion I help him out and get to use it. Not often you get to put something like that on your belt whilst not looking like a serial killer
