Introduction
King’s Fine Woodworking has been a trusted brand in the woodworking industry for over a century. Established in 1903 by its namesake, Augustus King, the company has earned a reputation for exceptional craftsmanship and quality. The company’s award-winning bench is no exception.
The King’s Fine Woodworking Bench is renowned for its unique design that combines both style and function. The bench is handcrafted with exquisite detail and durable materials to ensure that it stands up to any task you may have it completing, from basic projects to intricate work. The workbench is made from solid oak and features an adjustable height structure. Its large slats provide prime support for heavier items, such as planers and table saws, while still providing plenty of space for all other necessary items like clamps and jigs.

Assembly
Before starting the assembly process of the King’s Fine Woodworking Bench, make sure all components are present. Check the package for all wooden pieces, bolts, and nuts listed on the instruction sheet. The 4 pre-drilled leg pieces should be placed in alignment with the top board and fastened with nuts and bolts. Take special care to ensure that the pre-drilled holes of both the legs and the top board are lined up properly before tightening.
Once all legs are attached to their respective board, it is time to attach the foot rest struts. Make sure each strut is in its right place, otherwise the bench may become unstable when in use. Fasten each strut firmly using nuts and bolts provided in the box. Use a spirit level to check for horizontal stability if required.
After attaching all feet struts it is time to connect them to one another, creating a strong frame for your workbench. Start off by connecting 2 perpendicular struts together with a connecting bolt; this will result in an “X” shaped element which should then be fastened firmly at each end with additional cross-bolts. Do this again at different heights on further parts of your structure until you reach 4 distinct points that form a square framework. You can now connect these 4 points together by attaching additional Y-shaped elements if applicable.
Finally, use an adjustable wrench or spanner (not included) to tighten all bolt connections until they remain stationary against light movement – but not too much so as not to overtighten them. Now your King’s Fine woodworking bench is ready for use!
Maintenance and Care
The King’s Fine Woodworking Bench requires careful maintenance and care to protect it from damage, warping, and discoloration. The following strategies can help ensure the longevity of this piece:
1. Use a soft cloth or brush to dust the bench daily. This will help prevent the buildup of too much dirt and grime that can cause surface damage over time.
2. Keep away from extreme temperatures or direct sunlight because wood can warp when exposed to drastic temperature fluctuations or intense UV rays.
3. From time to time, you may want to lubricate any moving parts with mineral oil as a protection against rusting and/or other harm caused by environment factors such as moisture in the air.
4. Periodically sand down any imperfections on the surface and apply a maple finish if desired for added protection and aesthetic enhancement.
5. Make sure that there are no screws, nails, or other sharp objects protruding from the surface which could tear clothing or cause injury if someone comes into contact with them accidentally.
6. In order to preserve coloration over time, make sure to clean off any spills immediately with a damp rag using mild soap if necessary – harsh chemical cleaners should be avoided whenever possible as these can discolor wood furniture permanently in some cases.
