Adding Drawers to the 1-Hour Workbench // Woodworking Shop Project

In this #woodworking project, I add #drawers to my 1-Hour #Workbench. I was in need of some shallow drawers, so these will definitely come in handy.
Plans for these drawers are available on my website:

Happy building!

Wow. No annoying music, and no talking to slow things down. Great job !!

[@falconthree3815]

I love it ,keeping it simple--a true craftsman-- love -love-it, thank you 😎

[@stonehands0249]

DIY at high speed! This was so awesome! No long discussions or explanations.

[@ApakukiNayacakalou]

every vid on youtube should be like this!

[@RobertJKeller]

If you notice pocket holes in the drawer frames for no reason, it's because I had the jig set incorrectly and drilled them too deep. So instead I just used glue and pin nails. -RJK

[@andreajava8402]

Came here to find this out^

[@jopiedope]

Another mystery solved, 🙂

[@southpole76]

How have the pocket holes in the outer frame which you screwed towards the edge instead of towards the center been holding up?

[@ehenyor]

I'm here for the high-speed sounds, and to learn...

[@stephanieking9242]

This is a pretty solid little workbench. While once you figure out how it comes together, it is physically Easy to assemble kzbin.infoUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh by yourself. But the diagrams explaining the steps are really pretty bad. I could not get the handle pins in all the way despite multiple attempts, so I just used a screw I had on hand for the 2nd handle. I could not get the first pin in further or pull it back out. You are supposed to hammer it in, but I had no leverage and the handle is plastic and I did not want to risk breaking it. I will get a lot of use out of the bench because of the convenient size and height. It does fold up nicely for storage. They even explain how to fold it so you don't get pinched...that is important!

[@brucemcmanus2569]

Love this will make drawers this way !!!! NO BENDING AND CRAWLING ON FLOOR !

[@AaronBelknap]

perfect solution to my workbench!!!!!!

[@djtblizzle]

You made that look insanely easy!

[@mlb6d9]

Thanks for the FF, and for not saying a word! Too many vids out there with guys that just want to hear themselves talk.

[@jopiedope]

That is smart to add the structural 2 x 4s at the end and therefore not to rely on the squareness of the original workbench. Trying to fit a drawer perfectly between my vertical uprights would be nightmare. Great video!

[@PopleBackyardFarm]

I so love this project

[@Weluvtanfeelz]

Awesome! I'm gonna add that soon!

[@lexusnguyen2512]

Love to see your video 👍👍👍👍

[@BruceAUlrich]

Nice addition!

[@kwc1030]

I really like that the videos are not filled with a lot of unnecessary dialogue. It is direct and to the point, which I really appreciate. So many DIY videos are filled with unwanted chit chat which really detracts from the projects. I also like the fast motion which is slow enough to see what's happening. Great job!

[@edsosa9954]

But how fast is slow enough?

[@alainouellette3160]

Dittos from my end.

[@M_M0109]

You could have stopped after your first sentence.

[@anthonyrivera7815]

Excellent!

[@RhinoWorks]

great work, really enjoyed watching it. this workbench is going to be awesome!

[@CantrellLeatherGoods]

Just purchased the plans for the table and drawers! Great tutorial and straightforward design. Really appreciate you. Definitely got a new subscriber.

[@mariaemilianegron]

I love it

[@swk1975]

Made the workbench last week. Just made the drawers today!

[@olegzakharchenko7116]

Отличная работа! Быстро и по делу!

[@fleetswoodshop3339]

GREAT JOB ON THE BENCH .THANK YOU .FROM DOUG

[@davanted.o.x4577]

So clever bro

[@blackhorse2947]

Turned out Great…….

[@user-xk5qo3se8x]

its a very nice

[@Samcraftcom]

Fantastic solution and upgrade to the workbench! I'm planning something similar for my CNC table and this video was very helpful!

[@RobertJKeller]

Nice! I've been watching all your CNC vids, I bought a Shapeoko Pro recently as well.

[@droper683]

great vid

[@ArturoMendezC]

Se mira genial, yo tengo que hacer un update a mi mesa de trabajo

[@sophiescyclingandwalkingch4294]

No bull, just joinery 👍🏻

[@jjforeal2]

I definitely would have routed a recess for the drawer bottoms to fit into the sides so you could put a little weight inside.

[@Kreacher1974]

Would be nice to have an explanation of what he is doing and the size of the cuts

[@budhieyanto508]

Apik men kang

[@chrisrakkestad]

Damn, KZbin has such great plywood. Can't get anything like that in Sweden

[@kristak9725]

Good plywood here in the states at the box stores, but we pay for it. I think the last time I went to pick up a 8x4 of 3/4" ply it was around $50 for the good stuff.

[@chrisrakkestad]

@@kristak9725 I asked at the local hardwarestore. They could order some in, starting at about 150 bucks per sheet D:

[@ESPNEWS8]

How wide and how long is your work table? I made last year but I’m going to make a bigger one in a few weeks. I’m looking into trying to incorporate some drawers.

[@phillippettit2138]

Noice

[@wabvending4671]

What screws did you use in the pockets?

[@WoodyHaroo]

I made my benches almost exactly the same. Some things I don’t like about it is that I can’t use my smaller clamps on the edge, and I bump my shin on the bottom beam holding the shelf. If anyone has a good looking solution I love to see it

[@mikerobbins795]

What is the best way to add a shelf to the bottom?

[@officiallydiaarthurappau7387]

Nice work. Pls can you add the measurements?

[@dancahill9122]

Love this easy-to-build bench ! I used his ideas on my workbench frame. But there is one minor drawback to adding these drawers the way that he did. You loose the overhang on the front side, that you could have used for clamping ! You add some convenience and loose some convenience ! Allways a trade-off I guess. 😞

[@Inchonseoul]

For that reason I left 4 inch space & still manage to built two 5 inch high drawers from bottom of the 2×4 top support.

[@mattcreator8480]

How do you space drawers for slides? The width seems important. Last time mine would jam up o.O

[@brewmeistersmit]

good question mine jammed

[@marcosbarba1748]

What happened to your RYOBI impact drill? did it give out?

[@RobertJKeller]

Nope, still got it.

[@victorruiz-rios7988]

Hey brother what kind of table saw do you reccomend?

[@RobertJKeller]

Depending on price range either the Dewalt job site saw, the Rigid R4520, or a Sawstop.

[@julz9261]

Hi there I don't know if any one has asked this, but are you able to add metric sizing to your plans?

[@rosta498]

That would be great. I'd definitely buy plans in metric.

[@SteveK139]

Really great video...but am I the only person that leaves my bench top overlapping by an inch and a half for clamping purposes?

[@robertslockbower306]

Can you come to my house New Jersey and Bill some stuff for me because I could never do that fun watching

[@ShawnOlson-dq8ir]

My lord your fingers get close to that blade lol

[@kwiknikk]

Not enough pins imo

[@Kreacher1974]

Cant learn how to do it if you dont explain how to do it
