How To Make A Workbench For Cheap

Love the bench build. I would consider some cross bracing for the legs just to stop any racking

[@ezerish]

I think he mentioned building something for that in an earlier video.

[@Brian-Burke]

What about adding a third leg in the middle? That's a long span.

[@carlbelcherEDC]

@@Brian-Burke I feel like the top is pretty strong so I don't worry too much about the span. Those legs just have a narrow top so any sideways force creates a lot of leverage.

Nice job on the workbench. I worked professionally in a wood shop for many years and the workbench was great. It was a big one 4' feet wide and 8' feet long and skimmed with a full sheet of 3/4" MDF. So after 6 months of abuse we would just unbolt it and the vice and slap a new sheet of MDF and its good as new.

I worked at a shop a few years ago. The bench the old owner made had 3 heights. About 6 feet of a good height for sitting down with a chair. About 12 feet of about belly-button height for stand up work and about 6 feet of about mid chest height. I was amazed how much time I stood up at the highest level doing finicky small engine work. Excellent height for seeing exactly what I was working on without being bent over a low bench

Nice to see a bench build that the average DIY home owner can tackle. I've seen so many of these builds that just boggle the mind in their cost and complexity, requiring a level of skill that is way beyond my meager ability, along with tools and machinery that I would have to mortgage my house to purchase, (even if I did know how to use them). Sometimes all you need is something simple and sturdy to pound on.

If your going to forge a square stock drawer pull a cool and fairly simple affect to add a little flair is pineapple twist. You basically cut a few slits in the material and twist the bar.

Make sure you remember to set the drawer back enough so that you can still use a clamp in Front of it. If that’s unnecessary, then I’d digest still setting it back far enough that you’re not snagging on or bumping into the drawer pull. 👍👍👍

[@Grogbelly]

Simple knob style drawer pulls catch on clothing and pockets and whatnot as you move around close to them, as you would on such a drawer beneath your bench. I'd suggest forging something more like a "U" shape handle (without any sharp angles or protrusions) with two mounting points, whose edges/ends go flush against the drawer face, rather than a knob pull. Even a hollowed out clam shell type of drawer pull would be preferable to a knob, in my opinion.

[@richiem9316]

I have those shop fox legs. I picked them up for the small foot print / adjustability. Ran into a problem though. bolting them to the bottom of a top without any sort of bracing lead to a table that is pretty wobbly. i dont plan to bolt to the floor so i may look at adding some 45 degree braces or something

I would personally put the drawer by the drill press and keep different drill bits and stuff in there. But either way a drawer would be a nice addition.

[@lordrichard8184]

I think drawers all the way across would look great. Also you should do an inlay of your wranglerstar logo on the bench for jack.

[@clydeperrine2959]

A nicer drawer pull for under the workbench might be just an oval chamfered slot cut in the face. It won't offer any snag point and you make it big enough for three or four fingers or whatever suits your fancy. And you can install the drawer flush with the side of the bench if you want which will give you plenty of reveal when you open it. Preventing a snag point is the prime motivation behind this thought.

I had to make my workbench completely out of wood so I could make the legs long enough so the table fits a 6'5" guy like myself. It really takes a toll on the back when you have to bend over to do everything. Its always interesting to see how people configure their workbenches.

[@treymcgehee5139]

Great idea for drawer. What about a shelf on the legs. And you should write a note to Jack under the vise, grinder, or drill press. How awesome would it be for jack 50 years from now.

[@cjemhardt]

Very nice project! You should finish the underside of the bench with the same finish you used in the top. It equalizes the surfaces of both sides and helps stop warping. Yes, the legs will keep the top stable but good practice when making flat surfaces out of wood.
