Workshop Bench

A garage woodshop at the end of the afternoon: a long fluorescent light over a scarred beech bench with hand tools, and an iPad running a cut-list app.

A garage woodshop with a laminated beech workbench, a cast-iron plane, chisels, a vise, an oil can and a hung pegboard, sawdust and curled shavings everywhere, lit by one cool fluorescent tube and a little warm daylight. One steady 13 s take in four beats: a macro on the oil can and vise, a crane up and round with a hold, a pull out to the wide shop, then a slow low push along the bench onto the shavings.

    REALISM WORKSHOP — "Workshop bench" (see SCENE.md)

    A garage woodshop at the end of the afternoon, lit by one long fluorescent shop light hung on
    chains over a scarred laminated-beech workbench; the garage door is up behind the camera and a
    little warm daylight spills in low from the front-left. On the bench: a cast-iron hand plane on
    a walnut board, its shavings, three chisels, a machinist vise, a pump oil can and an oily rag,
    a mallet, an F-clamp, a whetstone, a steel try square, a tape measure and an enamel mug; a hand
    saw on the pegboard. Sawdust lies drifted over the bench and the floor.
    The tests: rough, oily and polished metals side by side under one cool line source; shadows
    soft along the tube and crisp across it; cool tube light on warm wood against the warm spill;
    fine particulates (the dust layer, shavings) on surfaces.

    SET  origin = the bench's front edge, centred; bench top surface Y = 900 (x -1000…1000, z -880…-180).
         Back wall z = -900, left wall x = -1500, right wall x = 2100, ceiling 2600, door line z = 1400.
    Y    props y = surface + scale × |minY| (models/*.json), written as arithmetic beside each.
    SCREEN  Kerfmark, a fictional cut-list and lumber-stock app (realism-workshop.screens.html →
         scripts/html-screens.mts); the stretcher row is cut while the camera holds on the iPad.

    Authored look is the common case: no tone curve (sRGB only), SSAA 4. Everything else is a
    render-time switch on the URL (gpu/realism, gpu/pathtrace).
