INGENIOUS MECHANICKS: Early Workbenches & Workholding
By Christopher Schwarz
Workbenches with screw-driven vises are a fairly modern
invention. For over 2,000 years, woodworkers built furniture
using simple benches that relied on pegs, wedges & the human body to hold work.
This book takes you from Pompeii, which has the oldest image of a Western bench, to a
Roman fort in Germany to inspect the oldest surviving workbench & finally to his shop in
Kentucky, where Chris recreated 3 historical workbenches & dozens of early jigs. 160 pages.

THE ANARCHIST’S WORKBENCH
By Christopher Schwartz
Along with providing a detailed plan for a simple workbench built using construction lum-
ber & basic woodworking tools, this book tells the story of Chris’s 20-year journey researching,
building & refining historical workbenches until there was nothing left to improve. His plan is
based on a European design from the 1500s. It has 12 joints, weighs more than 300 lbs. &
requires only a few hundred dollars in lumber. The simple bench’s versatile design can be changed and
adapted as you grow as a woodworker. 344 pages. 204778 Anarchist’s Workbench $29.00 $31.00
