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!

[@stratolestele7611]

@@RobertJKeller what is the final height of the workbench with casters?

[@RobertJKeller]

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

[@brianmitchell5906]

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.

[@dirtyaznstyle4156]

How’s it holding up? 20 3x3 brackets?? I know what hardware overkill is and just the weight of the fasteners alone for that is worthy of recognition.

[@mybuddy3119]

Alright. Adding metal brackets to the list.

[@amandacurry5865]

Ok, well, my husband and I made your 1 hour table. Pattern is easy if you follow your directions but we decided to add the drawers as in your other video. We made it longer and wider and put 3 large drawers on each side. Took more than two weeks. Love it! Thanks for the ideas!

[@Willee64]

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!

[@allennicholson8761]

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.

[@flylooper]

Mr. Keller: At first, after buying your plans, I thought the leg length was too short for my height (6'2") but after assembling, the bench will be perfect for me after adding the casters. It's a great bench for the $$$ and simplicity of building it. Thanks a million. (Wait. Thanks $999,999,998 worth!)

[@RobertJKeller]

Glad it worked out!

[@flylooper]

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. :)

LOVE THIS! Too many workbench videos are too complicated and they to make a piece of furniture. THIS IS A WORKBENCH! This is how I build them.

Great video! You've inspired me to give this a try. The best part is that the tools you're using are super accessible and beginner friendly. I was worried you'd whip out a $5000 planer or something very specialized, but this looks feasible with a basic circular saw and drill. Thank you!

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 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. =)

[@Jartisann]

@@jamesanthony8438 very true. In my country Thailand, no professional carpenters use fine looking tables. They just put up quickly plywood tables and work from that in their occupation. Hard and sturdy and adequate to get work going. And all their table saw are quickly make-shift, almost impromtu version that they put together in 2-3 hours. Not that I agree at all in the safety aspect, but it just does the work for them for many generations. Haha

[@rla1000]

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 would love to see pics of this!

[@rla1000]

@@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.

Great build, used this as inspiration, but made some changes: Put bottom braces (Cut shorter obviously) on the inside instead of outside. There are resting on the short scrap pieces that the fourth caster screw goes into. I cut a piece of plywood to overhang the new bottom braces just slightly on all sides with corners cut out, and dropped it in before adding the top braces. It can't handle a ton of weight, but it is still very handy. I threw a couple storage bins with light but bulky stuff in them under there. Otherwise the space under the table would be a complete waste. I did top braces on the outside like you did, but for the table top itself I did it a bit different: I built a 2x2 frame to go entirely around the top braces. Then I cut the table top so it would have 1.5" of overhang past this new frame so I can clamp to the table top. I attached this frame to the underside of the table top (screwing from the bottom instead of the top so the top remains clean). Then once I had it attached I put it over the existing frame. Finally, to keep it solidly in place I drilled some 5/8" holes through the base-frame and the top-frame and inserted four 5/8" Easy Grip Hitch Pins from Harbor Freight, 2 on each long side. These hold it securely, but if I ever need to change the top due to damage or whatever I can pull these pins and lift the whole thing up, flip it over, remove the frame, and put it on the new top. Yeah, I could have just used four screws, but this is much cooler, and I can reuse the same holes.

I built a work table when I was younger for my upholstery work. It was 8'x4'. I used 3/4 plywood for the top, 2x6's and 2x4's for the legs and frame and added a bottom shelf from 3/8 plywood. That table was heavy. But it was sturdy enough to hold whatever I was recovering and for me to get on it and walk all over it when I needed to.
