DIY 2x4 Workbench for Under $100 | Modern Builds | Woodworking

Today on Modern builds, I'm making a woodworking workbench completely out of 2x4's! Materials (wood) for this project came in at just under $100, and the beauty of this project is that it doesn't take a shop full of tools. A circular saw, planer, and a table saw (optionally) is all you need! If you plan on building this project yourself, there will be plans on my website, linked below.

I just built this bench. I used only a circular saw, square, drill, pocket knife, (cleaning out the laps) and a #4 style hand plane (leveling the top). I did it on the floor of my garage. It cost just over $100. (I bought a gallon of glue as I had none) It came out really nice and the project is totally do-able in a weekend by a novice. You don't need $4000 in tools. You just can't be lazy. The hand plane was a workout. One note: You can save on time, and increase accuracy if you clamp the legs together in sets when making the lap joint cuts with a circular saw. Way better than anything I could buy at that price. Thanks Modern Builds!

[@tedrowland7800]

For future reference: If you go to a regular lumber yard, instead of big box stores, you can buy a better grade 2" x 4" for pennies difference in cost, AND, they will run them through their plane for free. They have actual "board sizers", that plane all 4 sides at once. you can tell them, "I want the finish 5/4" thick, x 3-1/4" wide, and they dial it in. Then you can glue the entire table all at once.

[@wandererstraining]

Bet it's a great bench! I'm also in the process of making a workbench, but only have hand tools: saws, chisels, mallet, hand drill and a jack plane. I live in an apartment above my landlord, who is a lovely old lady, so I want to make sure I'm quiet. I'm in no rush tho, so it's all good. I do things one little step at a time. Since I don't have perfectly flat floors and the 2x4s I could find were all very slightly warped (don't have a car, so I have to walk back and forth to the hardware store), I quickly built a guide using the narrow side of the 2x4s as a straight-ish line. That guide will be used to laminate the tabletop as straight as I can. Then the next step will be to use the jack plane to flatten the tabletop. I expect this to take a long time and a lot of effort, because I'll probably have to remove close to 1/4" off the tabletop. Fortunately, the bench I'm making is apartment-sized, and will measure 30"x46", so I think my jack plane will be appropriate for the surface. Can't wait to have it completed. Enjoy your workshop!

[@pentachronic]

Make sure you don't glue the legs etc if you're in an apartment!!

Thanks a lot Rob!

[@AGlimpseInside]

Dude! This is the most creative use of left joints I’ve seen! One of your best tutorials to date. And quite honestly I’ve built flatpack shop furniture before, and I never once took it down to move it around. It being completely permanent is a good thing! Nice work brother

[@cosmicbrambleclawv2]

Thank you so much for the handheld circular saw bit! So many videos are all about the table saw and neglect the little guy who can't afford fancy tools I had to make my first workbench (now used as a table of sorts in my room cause I need storage a ton) and Lord is it crazy looking and was a crazy build trying to cut all of it by hand due to lack of table saw

[@mattseng1632]

I love this wood working book *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . A few of the topics talked about in the book include wood working strategies, explanation on the development cycles of trees, and various lumber characteristics that craftsmen favor. I also provided my father another copy.

[@nonopolo9569]

Love this book! kzbin.infoUgkxpCNxqmAkyjN6NPx1fyB7QiEFWyO5mUWL it is simply one-of-a-kind! I really love it, because karah explained all tools required to have the job done, not mentioning the fabulous diy pallets ideas. I'm pretty sure this will be a fresh start in my new endeavour. Amazon was great, they delivered on time. Thank you!

[@MarkPrimavera]

IT'S A SCAM!!!

[@thomaslevan7452]

Good idea on showing how to do this with both a table saw and circular saw!!

[@tonyennis3008]

Let's keep in mind you could cut those lap joints nearly as quickly with a handsaw and a chisel. One cut at each end, then blow the middle out with the chisel. It's easy. Make chips, not dust.

[@astrayadventurer4450]

Also most people don't have a planer. Use a table saw to take off the rounded edges.

[@stuartmills5704]

Nice job man. I like that it looks like an expensive store bought item, yet it costs much less. Thanks you

[@megangoudey360]

Hey, Mike. This is a great video (and the Sketchup video to go along with it). I'm a technical trainer and you have a natural knack for working with adult learners by breaking down a large task into manageable bites, while giving the "whys" of what you are doing. You've introduced traditional joinery in a nonchalant way that isn't intimidating at all. I was thinking it might have been awesome to throw in a mortise and tenon to attach the top, but you were probably right with the restraint there and keeping it accessible. I have only gotten into woodworking in the last few years and still watch a TON of videos to learn. I really enjoy yours and the thoroughness without over explaining everything. Sometimes that is intimidating in itself. Nice work, bub.

[@ActiveArtisan]

That's the most perfect workbench I've ever seen. Let me know when I can swing by to pick it up.

[@gusvortech]

I’m also looking into building my own workbench. I like that your execution is simple and the vids have a concise explanation of the work. That’s important for the DIY community. 👍🏻

[@martinhahne865]

if you dont have the tools to get your worktop compleatly flat, you could always screw a sheet of 18mm 0r 12mm ply to the top. also by doing this you can fix jigs to it and when it gets battered replace it with a new one.

[@ModernBuilds]

Very true!

[@grizzlygrizzle]

Plywood flexes, and doesn't guarantee flatness, only smoothness. But for most of us, that's fine. If you want to see a true flatness maniac, go see this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppaQdp2kp799qMk

This table is really cool. I was in Wood Shop in high school for 4 years. Id really like to get back into it when i get myself a house in a few years. Seeing all them cuts look confusing and would take me a minute to get the gist of how to make them, but i love building stuff from wood and the satisfaction of building stuff for cheaper and probably better quality.

[@spacemansabs]

Not mentioned: it’s really important to alternate grain direction when glueing up a tabletop. So if it bows it bows as a w instead of a u.

Thanks! I build this as well but I didn't put my stretchers at different heights. I but them all the same and added 1x4s across them for a shelf. I also added caster wheels so I can move it easily. I cut a recess out in the table and hid a surge protector in there so I can easily plug in different tools.

[@bigh4506]

Im trying to get into it too. My biggest tip would be to measure twice, cut once. Also having the right tools makes it exponentially easier. Always have 3 plans when building something.

[@danielhrch]

I couldn´t agree more. I was working on my first project yesterday and towards the end I felt confident, I started cutting some doors, I measured, I made the cut and after that I noticed one of the doors for the cabinet were too short. I measured alright but I didn´t stop to think if it made sense.

[@norocketsciencebuild5371]

Depends what country you are in. If it's for a livelihood it's a different game. But otherwise, then you might find my channel somewhat interesting. I am 31 now, no previous experience of carpentry yet i built my kitchen including the worktop on my own with somewhat basic tools.

[@norocketsciencebuild5371]

Comes with practise.

[@imsorry8236]

What form of Carpentry? All the tips vary. Like for construction, find a small company with someone who will take you under their wing. shop carp find woodworking groups through local colleges/ community centres. Reno’s learn construction carpentry first then quit once you know the basics, and find a new company. Careful for construction, no matter where you go there’s nasty comments.

[@boydmerriman]

Another reason to not use a 4x4 is that two 2x4s glued together are actually stronger because of grain pattern.

[@katieschmidt4029]

This is by far the best woodworking book I have ever read, *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . My woodworking teacher endorses it to all of his students. I am impressed how authors managed to write very detailed topics. I`m surprised by the material and didn`t have a tough time following the lessons..

I built a benchtop like that from dimensional lumber using handplanes only. Took a whole weekend to glue up and flatten it, but it is possible to do it that way. I went through the whole stack of lumber at the big box store to get the straightest pieces I could find.

[@McNamEvan]

llamuh x buy a large hand planer. You can find on Craigslist etc cheap. I cut my bench top from a pine tree with a chainsaw and flattened it with a friend's jointer plane by hand. Great way to make a fast project take forever, get exercise and save money.

[@jamegumb7298]

llamuh x If you can get 400 volts run to your home insteads of just 230 that will help a lot. Often cheap and if under 52 amps no higher network charge. You can then buy used pro equipment most home users will never touch and no company will buy because no service contract. And I can tell you a bigass 400 volt miter saw will cut through anything like butter with the oversized blades.

Great work man. Looks to be a very well built and sturdy workbench. Keep up the good work. BUT PLEASE. Turn off your table saw when you've completed your cut. A few times when showing the lap joint relief cuts you flipped the workpiece to show the camera while it was still running. 1:18 - You also did a dry fit to make sure you removed enough material while the saw was still running. 1:50 - For your safety just shut down the saw, show the camera the workpiece/make your dry fit check and if you need to make another pass just spin the saw back up. Nice video otherwise!

TIP: alll wood has a crown. when making the table top you should mark the crown of all the 2x4 and then make them all the same way. it would help with the glue up and expansion/contraction over time
