Notes

Maple features a tighter, finer grain and slightly heavier weight compared to oak. Both materials are excellent for bench construction—your choice depends on personal preference for color, texture, and feel. The John Frei Workbench line is widely regarded as the finest available, often copied but never equaled.

Amazing bench

Just got it yesterday and it is literally the nicest thing I've ever owned, it is extremely sturdy and ergonomic and just a very well made peice of furniture in general, the huge amount of drawer space is a godsend. I don't think money can buy a nicer bench

Great desk, once delivered.

I'd like to see OF put more effort into their delivery service. My delivery was a real hassle. OF uses a standard freight company, with curb delivery (which literally means the curb). The desk itself weighs about 230 lbs, and the crated desk weighs even more. It comes fully assembled, so if you need to move it from the curb to another place, you have difficulty doing by yourself. If you need anything like "white glove" delivery, you'll need to set that up yourself. I did mine thru the delivery company the OF uses and it was super expensive and quite a mess.

purchased 35 years ago

When I was shopping for a bench 35 years ago I wanted the best I could find because I would be spending most of my life in front of it. Well I have and with the spills and burn marks on it now, I still love it. Yes this is the best and defining quality.

Jewelers Bench

I took the plunge and purchased the best bench in the industry. This by far was the one tool I wanted to complete my jewelers wish list. I wonder if Mr. Frei remembers delivering this bench to my house ten or so years ago in Phoenix Arizona (purchased @ the Tucson show). Not by far the most expensive purchase I have made at the tool show but by far the most used and enjoyed.. (Yes I do remember but that was a bit more than 10 years ago...and thanks again! Steve Frei)

Quality desk

I purchased this workbench a few years ago and I love it. Very solid construction with quality materials. The drawers are handy for storing my supplies or tools. I don't like the two top locking cabinets that much because the two drawers in each cabinet eat up so much space and only small items can be stored in them, but they are handy. All in all, I am very pleased with my purchase. It will last for many, many years of jewelry making!
