Will Myers & Joshua Farnsworth offer a visually stunning and very detailed video about how to build the Moravian Workbench. This class is comprehensive enough for even beginners to successfully follow along and build a Moravian Workbench of their own. Filmed on location in Roy Underhill’s Woodwright’s School in Pittsboro, North Carolina, Will shows how to make this 18th Century Moravian Workbench with only traditional woodworking hand tools. Will simplifies the complicated workbench building process, including wood selection, layout, hand tool use, joinery, tusk tenons, advance dovetails, and much more!

PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE MORAVIAN WORKBENCH AND THE VIDEO SHOOT:
Will Myers first discovered the Portable Moravian workbench at the Old Salem historical living museum in North Carolina. Will Myers fell in love with the Moravian workbench, so he measured the original Moravian workbench and the work bench that had been built by the woodworkers at Old Salem.
Then Will began teaching Moravian Workbench classes at Roy Underhill’s Woodwright’s School in Pittsboro, North Carolina. Soon thereafter Joshua Farnsworth approached Will about filming a video tutorial class on building the Moravian workbench.
Now thousands of woodworkers around the world have built this Moravian workbench in their own workshops. If you’ve built a Moravian Workbench, contact me here to send me a photo and details about your customization. We’ll post it on Wood And Shop!
