DIY - Wall Mounted Workbench

This week I build a wall mounted workbench so that I can fit my new tool chest underneath it. Subscribe to my channel so you never miss a new video. Thanks for watching!!

[@mrranum01]

This DIY video is fantastic. From the design, execution, editing and delivery. Nice work. I am borrowing this design.

[@MsLadyboi]

Thank for the great simple work station.. I made the same for my garage 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@AlexGarcia-ur9dy]

Excellent. I'm glad this video is still around. It's a perfect solution for my needs.

[@billyhooks99]

Just found your video this morning exactly what I needed no measurements just the general idea.

[@MichelleCBonilla]

Man, this is AWESOME! I was trying to explain to my handyman what I wanted built and this is just perfect! Thank you!

[@justinthomas4442]

This is awesome, love how simple. Thank you!

[@ericplautz3622]

Great video, I'm looking to build a workbench in my shed and this is a great starting point for what I need to do. I also love the front molding you did.

[@markosenj9280]

Just made one today, same kind!! Thanks for the video!

[@keysersoze5633]

Excellent and practical use of space. Subscribed!

[@Brett.Williams365]

Nice job. Great space saving.

[@Mark-qg8hm]

Congratulations! Now you have a workbench almost exactly the same size as your workbench that has a wooden workbench top that you parked underneath, but this new workbench is about 2 inches higher! Nailed it!

[@tailhook44]

Simple and to the point.

[@quantumx5727]

That rocks! Very Nice.

[@JimDockrellWatertone]

Nice handy horizontal surface to gather things....lol. I need more of them too. Great way to store the tool box and gain access to other things. It's only us Canadians who know the beauty of a deck screw with a Robertson drive!

[@WesHamstra]

Jim Dockrell you bet! Robertson drive is the only way to go. I used deck screws because thats what i had. I built the whole thing from materials i already had

[@JimDockrellWatertone]

I buy 50 lb boxes of them when I can....I have them on hand too and they are cheaper in bulk. Besides, I have another deck to build.

[@clem5251]

Great video short sweet and to the point

[@arnulfoesparza601]

Sweet I'm using this method. Thanks.. just subscribed

[@barryroberts6470]

Very nicely made, well done. Barry (ENG)

[@WesHamstra]

Barry Roberts thanks man!

[@giovannip]

Nice work, Fantastic editing. A pleasure to watch. The whole process was captured and easy to understand. 👍

[@Wordsnwood]

Great shadow shot. I have that same pencil sharpener on the wall in my shop! Handy tool.

[@WesHamstra]

Wordsnwood (Art Mulder) thanks! Just trying to be artsy. That pencil sharpener was very expensive. It came with my old house.

[@davidsvensson148]

i'll give it 10 out of 10

[@kathyweigelhi-lophotovideo2984]

Best addition was the pencil sharpener:)

[@patrickbehan4773]

I love this idea, i just wish you showed ALL your measurements as. I would like to build it.

[@karimshaban]

At 2:40 you can see it's about 25.5 inches depth (which, I'll admit is a bit odd). At 1:43 you can see it's the 4th stud in width - so most likely 64 inches in width (but he has a slight overhang - so probably like 68 inches or so). For the bracket, it's obviously 2 feet (depth) * 2 feet (ok, if you want a perfect isosceles you want to make the vertical part 1.5 inches shorter - so 22.5 inches - not necessary though). Now you have an inner isosceles that is 22.5 inches * 22.5 inches - courtesy of Mr Pythagoras we can figure the brace can be up to 31.8 inches - but i'd go at least couple of inches short (that way you're not right at the edge); at 2:38 you'll see he's actually about 6 inches from the edge - so it seems like he used a 2-foot long brace - which is smart because it prevents lumber wastage). It also seems like he's used 2*4s for all parts, but the angled brace is a 1*3. Lastly, there's the cleat - if the center of brackets are exactly 64 inches apart, the cleat has to be 60.5 inches long (assuming these are 2*4s). Nice build :)

[@serenityprojects7364]

Great job! I love it. I was searching for this exact table and found your video. Thank you very much. It looks like you make and do all kinds of different things. I checked some of them out and I am so impressed so you made a subscriber out of me LOL. New sub and I can’t wait to see more projects, great job and thank you very much for sharing.

[@ticesine6589]

It was a great video, could yiu maybe help me fig out the support piece ? I know how to cut the 45 degrees but how long do i make it and where donu measure from ? Thanks

[@TheTranq]

Great simple design. Is it sturdy? Gonna be making this most likely

[@yeahhicks3567]

Clean

[@usernameTheInnerTube]

Schhhhnazzy!!! ☺

[@joebrown1382]

Nice Wes, can't have enough surface area in a shop.

[@WesHamstra]

Joe Brown thats for sure! Id like to make another work bench on my wifes side of the garage but she wont let me lol

[@PedroPerez-ps8uz]

Wow this is awesome is there anyway you still have cut sizes for that project?

[@wrawrer]

What is the point of videos that do not actually provide anything of value steps and measurements-wise?

[@matthewmackelvie306]

Use your brains man. You can’t figure out how to make this to match your needs? Sell your tools. Hire a pro...

[@Papits]

you shouldn't run the cable from the top of the bench. you could run it from under. all others you did great job! bravo

[@WesHamstra]

Papits P noted for next time! Thanks for watching

[@nightfangs2910]

great job, tho i would not bother with the decorative trim and I would have taken 2 pieces of plywood attach it to the vise and clamp with c clamps so as not to have it fixed if you need that space to work on the bench

[@richardmercado6285]

Badass

[@oldhess]

Great job on the work bench so please keep making awesome vids! But for the love of all that is holy, Please omit the music on subsequent videos,

[@calebdulin5461]

Awesome idea. New home owner and broke so the cheaper the better hahah. Are those 2x4’s? And what size is the plywood?

[@DylansDIYWorkshop]

I really like the build! It's similar to the computer bench I made for my studio. One questions... Is that pencil sharpener in a comfortable spot to actually use?

[@WesHamstra]

Dylan's DIY Workshop thanks. I haven't noticed the pencil sharpened uncomfortable to use. So to answer your question... no. Thanks for watching

[@ticesine6589]

Hey Wes , im just getting started in woodworking have not done it since high school , im wondering how exactly to do the brackets , do i figure out the top and back and then just measure the gap for the 45 degree ? Thanks

[@georgievvladimir]

I wonder are they any vibrations transferred from the workbench to the wall?

[@bradevans8714]

How far do you think you can span? I picked up a 77" tool box and want to do something like this but worry that's too wide for just 2 end supports, but if the box is against the wall, the isnt enough space behind it to have a support with a gusset in the middle

[@krusej23]

How high is the work surface off of the ground? It looked waist high for you. Do you still like that height?

[@diamond6256]

Mr Hamstra. You did exactly what I want to do. Is there any way I can get a list of size boards you use and would this work on a shed? I want to mount a small vise and compound miter saw to it. 67 Woman in Texas.

[@MrJoered17]

nice job putting the Tool chest underneath tight fit but adding the Trim around it ! can the Tool chest be wheeled out on to the workshop floor ???

[@WesHamstra]

No, with the wood trim on it cannot be moved out.

[@michaelsw0rd]

how long are the cross brackets end to end?

[@willmain1844]

Can you still put the tool chest out with the bench having trim on it?

[@WesHamstra]

No, it’s permanently in place

[@willmain1844]

Thanks man

[@kathydamico9553]

Could you add all the items needed for this project

[@WesHamstra]

Kathy D'Amico 3 - 2”x4”x8’ 1/2 sheet of 3/4 ply.

[@philvelasquez5982]

6-8 wood screws were all he’s using to hold that thing to the wall? Good thing you have that fancy new tool box to catch that bench when it falls off the wall.

[@WesHamstra]

adam sanchez 8 screws into studs are plenty.

[@jeffschmitz22]

How can I make my own chest?

[@heyitsbroski]

Is it normal to drill those nails so deep? I feel like this is counter productive.

[@The_Conqueeftador]

Yes...Drilling nails would indeed be counter to production.

[@silverfox-59]

Nice workbench, however would have been nice if you had gone through the measurements to show us so called idiots (meaning myself) how to do from start to finish.

[@JohnJohn-bu8np]

cant get ya bench out now

[@WesHamstra]

John John that is true. I did that on purpose. I didnt want it to be mobile. Also the trim is only screwed on. Its very easy to remove it. Thanks for watching!

[@Eric-tv1ew]

Why is music so loud?

[@WesHamstra]

Are you serious??? Do you not know what a volume knob does?

[@salcidojosiah]

The way you make your cuts in the intro is very frustrating. Lol

[@scottrose5922]

Dreadful music!!

[@Theknotman1964]

Did subscribe BUT stupid incessant music screaming in the back ground really pisses me off so now Unsubscribed 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽

[@WesHamstra]

Theknotman1964 I am glad you unsubscribed. I don't need your negativity. If the music pisses you off you have some underlying issues.

[@MrKen-wy5dk]

I agree about the music. I had to mute my speakers.

[@alcantrell5340]

Mr. Ken same here.
