Workbench advise, almost no pun intended

Here is how I resize my pictures. Hopefuly it will work for you:

Open the picture by double clicking on in, then right click, and select 'Edit'.
The picture should now be open in the Paint program.
In the menu bar click on 'Image'. From the drop-down menu select 'Sketch/Skew'.
Change the Horizontal and Vertical to 50% and click 'OK'
To check the size, click on 'Image' again, but from the drop-down menu select 'Attributes'.
After you have made the changes, close paint. When it asks you if you want to save your changes, select 'Yes".

For pictures I take with my camera, I find that if I reduce the Horizontal and Vertical by 50% twice, it reduces the size to just under 800x600. It just occured to me that I could do it once at 25% to get the same results.

Sincerely,

Well here goes. I got it resized thanks to you Ron. I have pushed a lot of buttons so it will be interesting what I get. I will either feel like a kid at Christmas or be depressed

Thanks to everyone for all the help with the attachments. I am on the East Coast at my Son's house on vacation. The photo that I attached has nothing to do with this thread. I was using it to learn how to attach. When I get home, I'll shoot a few of my shop storage for the thread. Thanks again.

Get irfanview anyway. It does much more than resize pix!

Rousseau makes a good sturdy set up that can be configured in a variety of ways. If you are doing hand plane work, you need to be able to have the bench feet solidly on the floor with a lift system (can be a cam setup to get the casters down for moving). I built mine with pine 2x8 and half lap joints bolted together. It is as solid as the $1899 Sojberg and has a tempered hardboard top (easily replaced if needed) that I don't worry about ruining like I would the Sojberg beech top. If I need more bench space, I have two different size MDF squaring jigs that I pull out and flip upside down over sawhorses. They store in about 4" of space under the dust collection pipe behind my bandsaw.

I recently made a couple of these tables and for a project that I was working on and was very pleased with the design and how well they worked out.

It's actually called a "EAA Chapter 1000 Standardized Work Table" and the plans date back to 1992. Here is a link that shows a number of them and how people have modified the design for different things

Alos, Folks, I have one personal question,

I know a reliable casino, and it is part of the sports world... but in some countries, Turkey, Canada, Israel, Cyprus, Estonia, Bulgaria, Curacao, Panama, the Philippines, Spain, France and its territories, and the United States and its territories are prohibited from playing its games. Recently found this interesting review, about CanPlay Casino - https://bestcasinos-ca.com/reviews/canplay-casino.php, Has anyone tried it? I'd love to hear what you think.
