re: Finishing

Elaborate and outstanding device.    I made a simple version of this a few years ago.   Often sits on the mother work bench.   Brings things closer to these old eyes.    Dog holes can and do often hold a magnifying lighted viewer.    2 layers of MDF with an oak edging and legs.   


No built in vise but do have a clamp on one.   Usually just use clamps across the width.    

LBD, like yours a lot.   Nicely done.  More elaborate than mine.
