Ha ha, the bench seems to be attracting the attention not the Fuching oils!
But for your info, I built the bench in 1980 when I got my first Morgan. An annual job on those was replacing the kingpins and bushes (and still is). The bushes had to be hammered out and back in, and then reamered to 1" exactly, with an adjustable reamer. You needed a solid bench to do that job on, hence what you see.
It's legs are 4" square, top 2" solid, front cross piece 6"x2", plus three drawers, all mortise and tenoned, glued and dowelled. "It's solid"!
Stainless top is easy to wipe down, good vice.........every garage should have one! I like being organised.
Yes I'm old school, "do it once, do it right".............my car's the same!! And I'm proud of it.
