Hi Vos, I built my own bench, it was an old 8 ft x 3 ft.engineers work bench with 8" x 2" timber planks on top of angle steel legs, I just added a sheet of 18mm. ply to the top and cut my own bench cut out shape with a jigsaw and made my own bench pin fitting with a sheet of brass screwed over the chiselled out bench pin tail shape. This bench has served me well for 40 years now. If you are looking for a ready made bench then the Emir ones are the best, but expensive.

I acquired and adapted my bench(es) from a 40+ year trade jeweller, who has always made his own benches!!

Hi James,
What are the metal clips made of that hold the bezel to the back plate when soldering ? are they just steel ?
-
They're titanium Paul. Ideal as they're pliable, strong, and don't suck too much heat away from the item being soldered.
-
Thanks Nick - where do you get them from ?
