Ordered (5) 18' long 2x12s.
Cut them to half length, yielding (10) 9' long 2x12s.
Ripped each into three equal pieces, yielding (30) 9' 2x4s.
Planed the faces of each, reducing thickness to 1 3/8".
Picked 24 good ones, divided into 4 groups of 6.
Started gluing up the four flitches (each will be 8 1/4" wide x 3 1/2" thick).
Each will be allowed to cure for 24 hours, then will be run through the planer.
Then the four bench segments will be glued together.
I'll install one Record face vise on the front, and either two on the right end, or a single Vertias twin screw vise.
Record bench vises installed, ends of bench trimmed, underside planed flat, in process of planing the top.
