    Nice work on the body so far, but not being a bass player myself, I was far more enamoured with that nice old workbench and vice!

    Ha, yes it's a nice bench. It was my grandfather's and I don't think he had it from new. I think it's around 100-120 years old?

    The wooden vice is lovely. I've got a normal metal vice the other end as well.



    It's nice and solid - once it's attached to the wall. Slight touch of woodworm that I treated when I got it, but nothing too significant.

    Thanks for the extra photo. I think that's really cool bit of history!
