Soo,

As I begin my journey to become a Luthier (a 25 year dream), I'm gathering the plethora of tools, jigs, molds, etc. needed to build the "perfect" guitar.

The most important tool in my opinion is the ever important WorkBench!! I've created the Ultimate in usability.
As you can see my workbench (aka dog crage), has multiple hight adjustments (flip it on it's side), an optional open top for my home-made router table, plenty of places to hang your clamps, and the most important - it's portable.

Seeing the "LMI Box workbench" from Robbie's video, I thought... "I can top that"! Now, the challenge, Can you top mine?

Or you can put a Pit Bull in there to protect whatever you're working on.
