Live at Lunch! Build a Sturdy Workbench is LIVE on Facebook








One of the perks of working at Popular Woodworking is the unlimited access to the decades of content in our library. The shear number of books, magazines and videos that I have access to is remarkable. Brendan Gaffney started at the magazine about three months after me and it’s not uncommon to see one of our monitors running a video from videos.popularwoodworking.com in the background while we work. There’s just so much to consume and learn from. In fact, Megan’s classic mantra for new hires like Brendan and myself is, “know our content”, and I have to admit, it is taking a while.


With that said, I have become convinced that there are tons of readers out there that either didn’t purchase a DVD when it came out or missed the marketing around a video release. In either case, I  have taken it upon myself to get our content out to you, our readers, in a really special format.


Every Wednesday I will host a new episode of Live at Lunch on Facebook. I will set our channel to LIVE and stream an entire premium video for free. I am working to arrange great coupons to get this content into your hands for a discounted price. My hope is that if you like the video you’ll dive deeper into the content with a purchase that gives you the supporting cut list and SketchUp files that will get you into the shop and building with new knowledge.


Someone from the Pop Wood staff will hang out in the comments section to field any questions that you have about the content during the live stream.


Hope to see you over on Facebook next Wednesday!


Below is the live stream we shared today. It was the full two hour DVD of Build a Sturdy Workbench in Two Days with Christopher Schwarz. It normally retails for $14.99. Use the code, FBVIDEO10 and you can pick it up for $4.99.

Assembly of an Oneida Dust Gorilla Pro Cyclone Dust Collector

What Happened To ClearVue? Before we get into the assembly of an Oneida Dust Gorilla Pro cyclone dust collector, let’s address the elephant in the room: what happened to the ClearVue? Just like my table saw, I took the move to Colorado as an opportunity to try something new. One less tool to move and work around as I get the new shop together and one more chance to gain perspective on a different brand. In addition, Oneida offers stands for their cyclones and that’s a feature I wanted in the new shop. So after a few pleasant phone calls with the folks at Oneida, we are now working with them directly on the dust collection solution for the new TWW shop. And just to clear the air, I have nothing negative to say about Clear Vue. Their cyclone served me well for over a decade and I am lucky to have gotten to know the kind folks that run the company. But now I also feel lucky to know some of the great people behind Oneida! Enter Oneida! My sales...

214 - Power-Sculpted Contemplation Bench

Video - February 18, 2014 History Back in the early days of my woodworking, I was heavily influenced by a show called Woodworks. The host, David Marks, would frequently engage in a process that was very new to me at the time: power-sculpting (aka power carving). I was so excited by this process that I drove all the way up to Santa Rosa to learn the technique from the man himself. So what you see in this video is largely inspired by the work of David Marks. If you’re interested in seeing some of the old Woodworks episodes, you can do so here. Once I returned home from Santa Rosa, I set out to create a simple sitting bench that would incorporate this carving technique. While the bench was only meant as a prototype, I went on to teach a class on the topic and my buddy Tom Iovino was able to write an article about the project for Woodcraft Magazine. Several years later, I wrote an article for Popular Woodworking Magaz...
