In Response To: Shop: Paddle carving bench *PIC* (Etienne Muller)

I only work on paddles one half (actually 1/4 because I only work on one face of one half) at a time, so my fixture is only 2/3 that length, and instead of legs I clamp it in the front vise on my bench. Someday when my shop is clean I will take a photo (I noticed your photo is outside...). The main difference is that on the working end my support piece is cut in 1/2 along the length and hinged with a bolt at the end to raise it up so that I can fully support the work piece when the angle is cut.
