Thinking about making a Roubo bench. I know hardly anyone makes those anymore. What type of joinery do you guys use on the base and to attach the base to the top?
For the base construction. I was thinking of making mortise and tenon joints but no glue. And instead use benchcrafted or veritas bench bolts? What relative size tenon do you suggest and what length?
For attaching the base to the top I was thinking of dry m&t again. With the tenons on the 4 styles. And then putting through lag screws through the rails.
Comments? Suggestions? Pics?
Thanks
