It’s show #585 – On today’s show, we’re talking about how to lower your chances of back injury in the shop, cutting the end of a workbench, designing with secondary woods and super-duper ultra mega laminated bench top
What’s on the Bench
- Marc is finishing up his raised garden bed with a non toxic finish.
- Shannon is making fancy vases from scrap wood.
- Matt isn’t a single dad anymore.
Kickback
- Paul works part time at Woodcraft and is tired of seeing our faces every time he walks in the door.
- Porcupine Woodworker realized his local Woodcraft is closer than his local Rockler…
Listener Questions
- Gabriel asks about things he can do to work in the shop with a bad back. He also asks how to trim the end of his big boy workbench.
- Lars is building a cabinet for under his desk and asks for design advice on using a secondary wood in the design.
- Pawel wants to laminate together his workbench top with a bunch of narrow and short boards and asks if this is doable.

Hey. Thanks for not quitting.
Question – marc recommended a couple of back stretching videos – one was the mcgill big 3, the other was just mysteriously referenced as “being by a lady” – any chance of elaborating on this?
Also technical observation – transcript for this episode is the wrong episode. I was like great, I can confirm I didn’t miss something before asking the question above! And then spent waaaay too long searching through the transcript before I saw it was episode 583!
Thanks
I can’t locate the one I referenced in the show but here’s a comparable video: https://youtu.be/2_e4I-brfqs?si=BlT_G_7JVoFsF74P
As for the transcript, I’m not sure where you’re getting that. We actually don’t upload a transcript so I’m wondering if this is something one of our hosts generates? Where did you get it?
