      Dear Bob,

      Thank you very much. The illustrations in the article are just high res exports from SketchUp. there was a little bit of post SketchUp editing to create the transparent (blue) areas and to insert scaled down versions of screws and bolts which I exported be themselves so they'd hold detail. All the "rendering" was done in Sketchup, though.

      There is an associated plan document which I did in LayOut. It can be downloaded from Fine Woodworking.

      Dave

              Awesome Dave, it's fantastic πŸ‘

              I love this sort of thing, it is clearly well presented and modeled.

              Did you add all text and arrows in LO?

                Thank you all.

                Dylan, I didn't add the text and arrows for the article and to be honest, I don't know what application was used for that. I also did a proper plan document in PDF form. that was done in LO. I used dimensions, arrows and text in LO for that.

                      I'm a cabinet maker and mill worker and I think I'd be putting that bench in my house as furniture. I'd be afraid to get it dusty or stained and marked with glue!!! Awesome job Dave.

                      Cheers,
                      Jeff

                      Have I mentioned how much of a laugh I get out of some of the Signatures on here!

                        Thanks Guys.

                        Jeff, it's Garrett Hacks's bench. He built a new one after 30 years with the previous one. It certainly is very sturdy. There's a video of him talking about and using the bench on the FWW site.

                        I finally got a copy of the magazine yesterday. I must say I'm pleased with how the images look. They don't look blatantly like SketchUp drawings and fit very well with the hand=drawn illustrations. It's different seeing them in print in the magazine than on the screen.
