Review on Yost Tools BD25 Steel Bench by Paul Rose

Revainrating 5 out of 5

short, strong and precise

The perfect addition to your workbench. I bought two and placed them on opposite sides of the bench. Despite the need to reinforce the area behind the fence (after planing the quarter-sawn maple), the fence hasn't changed at all. No kinks or breaks. I tried briefly to bring out some detail with just parentheses, but found this to be a very unsatisfactory approach. I'm new to this field so most of my problems are probably related to my technique or aircraft setup. However, after putting the bench hook on the workbench, the planing process became much more regular and productive. I've been using them for over a year and love them.
