Building a Simple Workbench For Working On Cars - Workshop Build: Part 1
Рет қаралды 213,771
Күн бұрынIn this episode, we are not working on cars, but I do parkour while building a nice usable workbench, with quick access to tools and plenty of storage above and underneath. Lots of satisfying tool clicks in this one!

This is a pretty solid little workbench. While once you figure out how it comes together, it is physically Easy to assemble kzfaq.infoUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh by yourself. But the diagrams explaining the steps are really pretty bad. I could not get the handle pins in all the way despite multiple attempts, so I just used a screw I had on hand for the 2nd handle. I could not get the first pin in further or pull it back out. You are supposed to hammer it in, but I had no leverage and the handle is plastic and I did not want to risk breaking it. I will get a lot of use out of the bench because of the convenient size and height. It does fold up nicely for storage. They even explain how to fold it so you don't get pinched...that is important!

Hey Sreten I'm a musician and you created some nice rhythm patterns with drilling and screwing. Very cool! I was too quick with answering (cause I was amazed by the sounds), but I have to tell you, none of your vids is boring! They are interesting (even not working on BMW I learn things), satisfying (like the vids of production or craft work that fullfill you with inner peace), and always funny at certain points. Very well done, I always enjoy watching them a lot! Have a good time in your new shop man!
