Table Saw Workbench with Extension Wing, Built-in Outfeed Table and Storage

[@riggyrain]

It's not often I watch a tutorial type video from beginning to end without skipping but God danggit I didn't want to miss a single second of this

[@danielmullin6435]

And confirmed that by eyeballing it. I love this guy

[@vernholio]

Let me just start by saying I'm pretty damn handy. I've gutted and remodeled every room in two houses. BUT... woodworking and I have a love / hate relationship. I really DIG how REAL you are in your videos! None of this, "INCREDIBLY EASY four poster bed project," done by a guy with a dozen years of wood-working experience and $250K worth of tools, in a 3,500 sqft workshop. Wood fights back... It doesn't "go together" as easy as those guys make it seem to. You're honest and show what ACTUALLY happens. But, most importantly, you persevere, figure it out, and show us how you did it. Great job!

[@michaellovetere8033]

Yeah, Chris..it's the tree getting even for being cut down😝

[@cs2energytools]

know you did this two years ago, but just want o say - great sense of humor while making a VERY USEFUL design - thank you!

[@jackhorsey4674]

I love that you show the reality of how many of us learn to woodwork! Great video!

[@jlpinha]

Nice job! The first honest woodworking “how to” video available in youtube. Showing your mistakes and lessons learned are a great help to others beginners!

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thank you very much!

[@sal_peter]

Explaining your mistakes and how to fix them is so helpful! Nothing ever goes perfectly and this video has the solutions to a lot of problems too.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thank you! That was my idea.

[@riggyrain]

This man is my spirit animal

[@koosdupreez6323]

LOVED this video! the fact that you embraced your mistakes and help the new-to-woodworking folks out here to not make the same mistakes, is awesome!! I watched this video from beginning to end, every second was informative!! Thank you!!

[@tvstafford1989]

I like that you showed your mistakes. I help give a landscape of what to look out for and how to adapt. Great video and funny too!

[@davidelswick9320]

I just found your video. I’ve watched a zillion workbench videos trying to identify all the mistakes I can’t afford to make. Your video is the best one I’ve found as it helped me identify things to watch out for. Thanks very much for your approach. I hope you make a lot more.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thanks so much! That's the idea of my channel.

[@bobtaschler4561]

Great video because you explain WHY. Most videos are vanity videos - oh look-I have a saw. Oh look-I can cut wood. Yours explains your thought process, design decisions and how you coped with mistakes. Great job!

[@MickelMart]

I love that you showed your mistakes, and all your iterations you made to overcome those challenges! Funny and informative. 10/10.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thanks so much!

[@KI-zj5tt]

Thanks for an honest video that shows all the steps as well as the mistakes. As another poster mentioned most woodworking videos are made by guys with many years of experience and more/better tools than I'll ever have. These guys also sort of assume you know what they are doing and don't fully explain the procedure. Great video. The humor makes it fun.

[@Bernardgrubb]

Great job, I love to see a youTuber that didn't have a "perfect" job. Keep up the great work and keep learning...

[@DJE-motion]

It's like I'm watching myself do a woodworking project, but cuss a lot more. Thanks for the video.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

😄 Thanks for watching!

[@soyythomas]

Subscribed, because you showed the mistakes and what you did to fix it. Thanks for sharing

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Awesome, thank you!

[@matthewcoronis7177]

I'm getting into woodworking and found this video because I desperately need to get my table saw off the floor. I learned a lot more from this video through your walking through your mistakes than I anticipated. Thanks a ton! I'm going to watch more of these.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Awesome! Glad it was helpful!

[@petesingh292]

We learned through every body’s mistakes,amazing video ,keep them coming

[@ElCidPhysics90]

Great video and awesome sense of humor. Additional points for linking the videos of the KZbinrs you copied, I mean learned from.

[@troutguyTris]

Wow Fed, this is so great. I just found you on the Tube and will most certainly look at your other videos. Very entertaining.

[@johnmcnaughton9816]

I just saw this video while researching my plans to make a table saw table. Loved it. Did the exact same thing to my pocket hole jig this weekend 🤦‍♂️. I subscribed!

[@shanesouthwood8413]

Lol, the AGILE table saw workbench. Awesome work! Im doing a similar project and was shocked i hadn't seen your video!

[@Notarivs_Anonymvs]

Thank you for sharing your workbench build along with the lessons learned. I love the narrating and comic relief. Stay safe friend!

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thanks so much!

[@jace_Henderson]

It’s actually really relieving watching fellow woodworkers make plenty of mistakes during their projects. I was over here beating myself up over issues on my first ever project making a jukebox out of birch and thought I was the dumbest or worst wood working alive.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

I feel the same!

[@johnchandler9407]

We starting a club im in :)

[@twentyapm4931]

Brilliant. You should be proud of yourself. This is one of the most educational video i have ever seen.

[@BigAlz11]

Good job buddy I really enjoyed your flavor of comedy and totally identify with your learn as you go method.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

I appreciate that!

[@davidbarnsley8486]

I have to get me one of those pocket jig things and I like your table I’m going to steal some of your ideas for my table saw bench Next project 😂😂👍👍🗜️

[@CfunkPalace]

Fed, your candor is refreshing and entertaining! Keep up the hard work. Look forward to more videos!

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thank you!

[@markedwards8788]

Thanks for the really honest and humorous video - budding wood workers like me can really learn from it!

[@davelester1985]

I bought a small table saw, I found that the sliding part was not allowing my saw to cut anything I needed. I also figured out that the surface is not big enough, so I started watching videos. Many videos. many. They were all technically over my head and way too ambitious for my small area I have to use. Two of them, took up at least a 1/4 of a garage!!! I just needed some ideas to use to make my saw be functional to do any kind of work at all. Then you showed up in my feed and I have some good ideas to use. Also the fact that you make mistakes makes me feel better as I am classically trained in music not shop class. BTW My first cut to make my little bird house was right down the middle of a board about 5 feet long. Scared as hell, and hoping I set up my moveable guide straight I started.....my neighbor upstairs got an earful, but it turned out useable. Thanks for taking the time to make understanding videos. If all the makers would back up and think about the idiots like me, it would be much better for beginners. Ciao! from Italy...

[@CharlesNolanArt]

You could have edited out your mistakes but that is part of your uniqueness. You are real, and honest most ppl who watch these videos make tons of mistakes I know I do that's part of the fun tho. You did a great job on your workbench. I don't know why but I have to learn how to do this my way. I truly enjoyed your video so now you have 4 subscribers, Thanks!

[@garyingles6143]

Great video. Love your honesty. Personally I usually make 6-8 visits to the big box store for every project. One idea I had in addition to your folding side extension is a folding infeed extension for when you are using a sled. I am going to be building my own table shortly, and I plan on incorporating that into my plan.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thank you, that's a great idea!

[@michaellovetere8033]

Nice build with the extension side table..Fits real nice...Oh, I made a lot of mistrakes when I first started out..

[@glenndoyle9116]

Mate, great honest video! Makes me feel a whole let better when l attempt things like that and stuff up too! 😁

[@chmorataya]

First five minutes of video... you won a new subscriber....

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thanks so much!

[@samsboringchannel]

I really enjoyed watching this video, you've done an epic job of telling the story about this build, which for me supersedes the design and build itself. I'll be sure to learn some of the lessons shown, and will definitely be ready to iterate any design flaws I'll inevitably make. Cheers from NZ!

[@mattanderson6176]

Thank you! I’m iterating a new workbench myself.

[@dbme6]

The router bit falling out not once...but twice 😂😂

[@armanarif8223]

Wow good man, love your videos. Subscribed.... As a newbie, I learned a lot from you. Thanks for not deleting your mistakes, so I can learn from that, God bless..

[@manfredvonferny]

I just found your videos, they are good and funny, you just got a subscriber!

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thank you! Welcome aboard!

[@tonyfagan7863]

Good video with some lessons learned and things to watch for. Thanks!

[@markmanning1898]

Great sense of humor keep up the good work. I love you video had to subscribe

[@rickykimball4244]

This is basically my experience, lol. Appreciate the honesty. Nice table, too!

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thank you!

[@JefFroTole]

Just found your page today and I got to say, you sir are brilliant! And damn hilarious! I appreciate the honesty in this video so much. Thank you for the step by step instructions. I have been wanting to build an outfeed table for my table saw for some time now. This is a great design. Thank you again and look forward to more videos! New subscriber!

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thanks! That's very kind of you to say!

[@paullobwein1632]

Wow man what a great video!! I love it just the right mix of everything, reality of making anything vs the unending KZbin videos out there. I am a lot like you and maybe everyone else.. I am self taught, I make tonnes of mistakes and my plan never ends up looking like what those other videos I have watched! You have a new subscriber so better make that 4 now. Keep it up Fed

[@scottlandb6579]

Fucking hilarious- this is the best, cause this is what’s happening in ever garage across America as we all learn the struggles of woodworking.

[@Terrythemaker]

I’ve built a similar table saw bench, and did the exact same thing with blocks to keep the saw in place, however I have also put a couple of screws in the front two holes on the saw frame just to be double sure it won’t move 👍🏼

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Good idea. I'll do the same. Thank you!

[@Terrythemaker]

@@FedLearnsToMake you have a new subscriber Fed 👍🏼

[@betojaquez07]

Thanks for your video! I like when woodworkers talk about their mistakes and how they fixed them. Forgive me if you already know this, but when using the router bit it's recommended to remove material 1/8" at a time. That's probably why your router bit fell out the second time. It also makes a cleaner cut. I think I have the same table saw. I hope to make a table just like this.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thank you for the advice! I thought I knew that about routers -- I definitely heard it before -- but obviously haven't been putting into practice. It's something I'll keep in mind moving forward.

[@Azcampingandexploring]

This is the best out feed table I've ever seen. I like the honesty in your projects. Keep up the great work. I just subscribed.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thank you! I hope to live up to that praise. Welcome aboard! 😄

[@ryanwood6495]

Just found this epic channel great video sir you are a legend 💪 much love from the UK

[@angiespencer4156]

Great attitude, your folks must have been officers or government workers? Your so funny loved your video so I subbed thanks😊

[@jscook54]

Good to see you back! I have made many of those same mistakes and then some you didn’t. But then I’m not a genius like you I guess. 😜. I really do love building stuff. Especially when it is completed! Hahaha 🤣.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Don't worry, it takes a very big genius brain to make so many mistakes. 😂😛

[@quidryan]

Thank you so much for this video. It is the most accurate video to what I'm experiencing, it gives me hope that i'll be able to finish my table.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Awesome! Good luck with yours!

[@cackleberryfarm4598]

First of all: WAY to give credit where credit is due!!! So many "woodworkers" on YT steal other makers ideas and make videos without giving reference to the idea maker. And B: Great video! I had no need to watch what you were making. But your delivery is SO funny and it was so much fun to watch the video that i loved watching the WHOLE thing!! Thanks! You have a new subscriber!

[@eolz7311]

Just discovered your video, cool. I like that you show mistakes and opportunities along the process. new to woodworking , I've learned a lot from you. Thank you for making this video.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thank you! That's my goal with the channel.

[@twizzian]

This was really funny, but you probably know more about woodworking than I do. Watching your mistakes, I think I will practice routering before I ruin my first projects

[@BeneWoodworks]

If it’s any consolation you’re way better at woodworking than me! Thanks for this video, I’m currently researching a table like this for the same saw and I like what you did with the furniture leveling legs and the folding extension table. Good work!

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thank you!

[@SYBEX21]

Your are so funny! I so want to be like Burbonmoth, or some of the other youtueb woodworkers; but I actually build like you. Thank you for the fun journey and keeping it real. I'm also starting a jobsite workbench (mine is the hitachi) so thank you.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thank you!

Gran trabajo Fede!!! Me gusta ver como van saliendo inconvenientes durante el trabajo y los vas solucionando sobre la marcha. Me consuela que no solo me pasa a mi 😅. Que envidia de tener un taller así con todas esas herramientas. Felicitaciones!!

Oye, Fede! menuda mesa!!!

[@mikejones-we9eo]

Just saw your page and this is the first video of yours I watched. Congratulations on your shop and getting into woodworking. Honestly I was cringing watching you cut those wide pieces like that. You should use a circular saw and straight edge to get them to more manageable sizes before running through your table saw. It would be a whole lot safer. Jay Bates has a video about it. And watch Stumpy Nubs KZbin video about table saw kickback. Best of luck on your woodworking journey

[@FedLearnsToMake]

I cringed watching the footage of me cutting those sheets as well. I've learned from that and am much safer now.

[@jameslavinder4368]

Do you have a material list of how much wood it needed to build this.

[@slipperyRat-e4q]

Well, advice long after the video. Lower the blade on table saw turn it over and lay the table saw top onto the plywood and trace it out or at least mark the extents.

[@amwartwork]

im making one of these. its 2.4m long and 1.4m wide. and 90cm tall. ive made the top and bottom today. i too always make silly mistakes and cant always seem to remember it when it comes to facing the same challenege again on other projects. im just too enthusiastic. ile look forward to any silly mistakes ile make.

[@mhanley05]

Do you by chance have the plans you created? Would really like to iterate a few items...

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Sorry, Michael, I don't. I have the free version of Fusion 360 which doesn't allow generating PDFs.

[@TheBustyOnion]

Super helpful video, can really relate as i get into this craft! Curious what your background/main career is, first thought was engineer or computer science with some subtleties of how you approach things

[@0308valentin]

Performance of DeWalt saw

[@daveglennie8682]

Good work, and thanks for sharing! But why did you put all your pocket holes on the outer facing surfaces? The point of pocket holes is to hide your joinery. Also, I think pocket hole joints need glue for projects like this.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

In part because I was inexperienced with pocket holes, but also because I thought that some of the pocket holes would be impossible (or very difficult) to access. For example, inner corners.

[@DjSource20]

Any plans for this?

[@StumblingBearWoodcraft]

Love the furniture levelers idea, have they held up well over time?

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Yep, they've held up very well. They were very useful when I first set up the table and I've only had to adjust them a couple of times. I was thinking of adding a little thread lock to hold them in place.

[@calmthoughtcafe]

Really enjoy you mistakes;)

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thanks! 😃

[@lsnum1]

how have you handled the dust collection? not sure how your saw works, but i have a little ryobi and a ton of sawdust just mounds up below the saw. i was also thinking of screwing mine down to the shelf but that would make cleanup a drag. do you just lift your saw and clean it out?

[@FedLearnsToMake]

The saw has a dust collection port in back, and I run my overhead hose down to the saw. That helps some, but I still have to get back there with the hose and that crevice tool and clean it out. I don't pull the whole saw out, though. Someday, if I can be in a larger workshop, I'd love to have one of those dust collection shrouds over the saw.

[@neilbutler-wasabirc8941]

Nice table. Exactly what I am looking for. Do you have the Fusion 360 design available?

[@austingooch5323]

Stumbled upon your video as I am a budding "woodworker" and I am 93% sure that I am becoming a fan of yours. I too have been "iterating" as I create and it is great to learn from others through my eye holes. What's your next project?

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thanks Austin! I'm working on a few projects, including adding storage to this table saw workbench.

[@sam78882]

Can you tell me the height of the workbench length of the legs thx

[@FedLearnsToMake]

The total height of the workbench, including the hardboard, plywood top and casters, is around 33 1/8 inches. Re: the legs... there are inner legs and outer legs. The inner legs are around 23 3/8. The outer legs are around 29 3/8.

[@Spad68]

Lol I feel you pain . Good video

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Thanks!

[@bobnelson428]

Do you have the plans for this you can share?

[@FedLearnsToMake]

I don't. I have the hobbyist version of Fusion 360 and it doesn't allow for generating plans (used to, but not any more). Besides, the bench, as modeled in Fusion 360, has lots of errors. I didn't go back to the design and update it with the modifications you see in the video.

[@tony3803]

Ya tenias todo hecho porque no pusiste una tabla más grande en el lado así lo hice yo como quiera se iba a guardar para abajo

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Porque tengo un taller bastante pequeño y no tenia espacio para uno mas grande.

[@johngeorge5285]

May I make a suggestion; Watch more & BETTER videos on to build a project. You did more work than needed. You did well, but your carelessness with the router could have cost you more than a bad edge. You'll learn, we all had to. Keep going & enjoy yourself.

[@heruvey87]

i was scared the for you the entire video, its been a year are you ok?

[@FedLearnsToMake]

I'm ok. I was really scared for me before I built the workbench around my table saw.

[@TN4theWIN]

Some folks should avoid power tools.

[@rehc2.026]

🤦‍♂️ La precisión no es lo tuyo, demasiado errores.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Precisión se aprende, y cometiendo errores es una de las formas que se aprende.

[@csbarbourv]

The router kicked back because you were moving it in the wrong direction.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

Yeah, I have to get better at that!

[@sandbox_test7553]

You never showed the final product. Nice job but you need that money shot at the end of your video.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

I sorta did, but I take your point. I'll make that more prominent in the next one.

[@SFFXd]

Love your video, it put a smile on my face. I know the root cause of your router problem. The router is possessed by the Devil. If you take it to your local priest he will perform an Exorcism after which it should work just fine 😂

[@FedLearnsToMake]

😆

[@hsjawanda]

You and I might be long-lost brothers when it comes to making silly mistakes... only difference: you've made something while I sit & watch YT vids 🤦🏼‍♂.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

😄

[@wulf67]

Please stop crosscutting against your fence. If you need to cut a board on a table saw that’s wider than it is long, move the fence out of the way and use a miter gauge or make a crosscut sled. If you think a router kick-back is scary, wait until you see one on a table saw. It’s like a bomb detonating and throwing the workpiece into your face (if not right through your appendix). An angel was watching over you as you crosscut those two pieces near the end of the video. That angel might be busy doing something else the next time you try that move though.

[@FedLearnsToMake]

You're right, and I no longer make cross cuts like that. I have a cross-cut sled and a miter gauge. Like with the router kick-back scare, I'm learning from those experiences and from comments like yours. I should do a video about lessons learned.
