Hi Robert. Love the video and the workbench. I went ahead and bought the plans and they look so perfect, I think even I can handle it! 😂 Sorry if I missed it, but can you tell me what the final height is with the 5.5" casters? I'm short, but also want something I can use standing up or with an adjustable chair, so I want to adjust the measurements for the legs as needed. Thanks!

The final height is going to depend on the exact casters that are used. It would be caster height + 28 7/8"

A small tip, if I may. When cutting the top, leave a 1" overhang on the front. That way it's easy to dust off as you'll have a little lip to put a dustpan under. It is also nice to have an overhang for clamping lumber with a quick-grip clamp. Your "L" shaped legs are a neat idea. Nice vid!
@allennicholson87614 жыл бұрын
Plus you can use clamps on the sides of that overhang, I found this out by accident when I built my table a few years ago.

I’m just starting to get into woodworking and used this video as the inspiration to build my own worktable, but made a few minor adjustments. For the legs, instead of using 28-1/8” 2x4’s, I used 4x4’s cut to 30”. The rest of the frame is 2x4’s cut 71” wide by 34” deep. For the top, I had a sheet of 1” plywood left over from my bathroom remodel several years ago, so I cut that down to size and used it. It’s attached to the frame from underneath using twenty 3x3” metal brackets. With the casters, it’s the same height as my table saw. It’s big and heavy but rock solid, and overall I’m very pleased with how it turned out. Thanks.

Well!! I got it all framed out. Indeed, the 28" legs are turned out to be too short for my height (6'2") even with 6-inch casters. I would have been better off using around 38"-40" as leg height, which would bring the overall height of the bench to 44" or so. So I think I'm going to unbutton the thing and get some longer 2x4's. Of course there's the "Joe Magee" solution which is to just put extenders on the present legs. But the framed out bench is very sturdy, too be sure. And overall, it's a great, simple frame with lots of possibilities for tweaking it into something more elaborate. As it is, my plan is to joint 2x4's together for a top. Maybe hang some drawers on it, too. Fun project. Definitely not a 1-hour project for this tenderfoot. :)

I like these kinds of tables better than the fancier ones folks have posted. My grandfather used to throw these kinds together all of the time. It doesn't bother you to mar, scuff, drill or saw into these. I'd hate to have one that took a week to complete and has a lacquered surface to look nice because I'd be afraid of ruining it with a simple project by cutting or drilling into it. _These_ are actual carpenter benches; the others are just glossy wannabes tossed online to attract subscribers with "Oooo! So pretty!" comments. I'd much rather have one of these. You can _actually do work_ on one of these. =)

For any Brits who find this vid, I made this with 15 lengths of Wickes 2.4M 38mm x 89mm CLS timber and 200 Wickes 65mm deck screws, total £74.40 Construction was the same as shown but I used 10-off 170cm pieces for the top which makes it really solid and installed an additional 3 noggins to support the length of these. For the build I chopped 70cm off of each piece for the legs (8-off), side supports (4-off) and top noggins (3-off) then doubled up the front top stretcher to support the 10th top piece and give me a table top 170cm x 89cm. The other difference in my build was to glue all the joints with waterproof D4 PVA (Toolstation) since my table is going to live outside; also I pre-drilled (not pilots) before screwing as it found this pulled in all the joins better I then liberally coated it in Sika clear wood preserver (Screwfix). It’s an easy to build, really solid bench which took me 3 hours because of the glueing and the compound top.

I need one I can fold the legs up since my shop is so small and has to double for the mower and some storage. It was just a car port to begin with and has a gravel (more dirt) floor now so I'll be putting some larger wheels on my bench. Also I'll change the 4X4 legs for the 2X4s. The one I have with the 4X4s now will stay put for another use. Good video. No talking, just showing.

Flat-stud your bench top support frame - extremely handy for quick clamping work to bench top. Just miter 2x4 ends at 45. You can either screw the frame into the legs top down, or wrap frame around legs which is what I did when I built mine eons ago. I also added a fifth leg, a doubled 2x4 in the center toward back which provides significantly more rigidity to bench top - also provides support for simply plywood shelf underneath. I wish there was a way to post pictures on here.

@@cindyp2296 I suspect y-t prevents posting pictures in comments because one picture could take forever to load, thus slowing down the loading of the video along with it. And if several people posted pictures in their comments, it could completely bog everything down. Like RJK's design, my bench is really simple, cheap, and easy to build. It's 3-1/2 ft. x 7 ft., and it's my "basic" stationary bench that is fixed up against the wall. It's for myriad tasks, and most of the time has evidence from one project or five at a time. Be sure to plan the height and width of your bench to not only allow for easily reaching the back surface of the bench top, but also to reach over it for a pegboard or other tool storage above the bench if you add that. I'm tall so 3-1/2 ft is an easy reach. If you look at the picture icon for RJK's video, he shows the plywood-topped workbench with the supporting 2x4 frame mounted perpendicular to the plywood. Simply turn the 2x4s flat instead, with mitered intersections at the corners. If you're using 3/4 ply, flat-studding reduces the thickness of the edge from 4-1/4 in. down to 2-1/4 in, much easier to clamp. After that, add whatever your imagination comes up with for various additional support, shelf, etc. depending on how you operate. Have fun.

I made a workbench similar to his. I used a similar frame but instead of screwing the frame to the top I placed a set of outside J Hooks on the top and bottom of 4 independent legs. I then placed the rectangular base inside the J hooks. I added a plywood shelf and then I added the top rectangular frame inside the top J Hooks. The plywood shelf stabilized four independent legs for stability and then I added wheels to the base and top frames so I could turn it on it's side to roll it around since I use it outdoors. The top is independent so I can take it off when not in use. My top is larger so I can break down plywood on it using Styrofoam insulation underneath the plywood being cut. I added dog holes to the top to secure items being worked on other than plywood. I used 4x4 legs or you can glue two 2x4's together for each leg. My top is based on a Ron Paulk design workbench. I added a 2X4X 6ft board on the bottom of the top to hook the top to the frame base. The top has an 8 inch wide storage area below the top work surface with cut outs and supports for the top work surface. I later decided to add 8 inch bolts through the legs top and bottom for added strength and stained it inside and out for outdoor use. It is quite the masterpiece with a few imperfections since it was my first major project. I also used threaded inserts in the top to attach the top piece of plywood to the top work surface In case I needed to change the top. Just remove the machine screws from the top of the work surface. Make holes to match holes in top work surface and replace. Simple as that. For sale $1000. I can email picture via phone. Location Nashville TN. Top has over 60 dog holes in it based on parf guide system. Top is stained, holes are waxed on inside and rounded over with trim router. Edges of top plywood sheet are rounded over. Cut out holes are rounded over as well (inside and outside)

Like this a lot. No lame music track either (thanks). One suggestion for next time... Maybe show a shot of the finished product right at the start? That's just so ppl know just what you're building without having to skip to the end. I like the way you left an overhang -- it will make clamping stuff to the workbench easier. I might make the same thing this winter, although I'll probably use wood glue as well for extra strength. Overall great job!

add more 4x2 underneath where you want to add a vice too. nice job on the construction. no glue is a perfect idea especially if you're renting and move a fair bit.

I appreciate this video so much! So glad I found it! I'm new to all this and have been looking for a simple workbench build without having to do pocket holes or something else more complicated! I love the style of the video too...not all that talking with all the "I and my"....for example: "I cut with my miter saw" ...I know they just trying to explain what they done, but sometimes it sounds like they bragging about their tools... LOL! Anyways, Thank you so much!

I am restarting woodworking…great video. I plan to use a longer, modified version of the table to double as a picnic table…covered with a clean tarp, of course😉

I personally would probably use some constructive adhesive in most of the joints in order to help them avoid loosening with time, and perhaps attached a chunk of 2x4 in the open area over the casters to reduce the chance of them pulling their screws out as easily. Still a decent bench either way.

I did not plan to make use of this woodworking book, *TopFineWoodworking. Com* but instead curious about it. I had been truly amazed right after trying it. I was seeking to learn more about the art of woodworking, and was not disappointed. I found many topics such as wood types and designing your workshop.

In 2019 this was a "1 Hour Workbench." In 2021 it's a 3.5 hour Workbench. The additional 2.5 hours is the total time spend at the bank applying for and signing all of the paperwork for the home equity loan for the cost of the stupid lumber!!!
