Great stuff, Brad. You forgot one option for the top drawer front: use two pieces (as if you have two drawers, like below) of scrap with the grain running how you like. One big drawer that looks like two and you use two pulls.

That dowel clamp hangar is a great idea. I've been thinking about attaching vertical storage to the side of a metal tool cabinet for my clamps, levels, and the pipes I use for torque multiplication. I'll definitely use dowels for my clamps. Such a simple and effective solution.

Neat project and entertaining video. For the top drawer, what about just a simple tray shelf that rolls from side to side, maybe with some kind of magnet stopper in the middle to nestle it back to center. Just spit ballin' in my head.

Looks good but the one thing that you missed was the one attachment that I find most useful - a narrow tray that allows me to quickly grab a pencil (and, in my case, an eraser) without having to open any drawers.

As far as the edge banding goes - I have a future project where I will need to apply edge banding at a right angle like that. Your few seconds of video showed me exactly how to do that, which is something I wasn't sure of. So, the fact that you gave in and applied the edge banding not only means it won't bother you, but was also helpful to a random woodworking subscriber. Thank you!

If you are ever going to stack plywood like that, you can go ahead and have the CNC carve in dowel holes to align everything. Makes everything easier.

On my assembly table, I put a divider across in the middle with a drawer on the side of one end, and beneath it, I put a slide-out drawer in the end for my belt/disc combo sander with a curtain in front to keep most of the dust out. The side beneath the drawer and on the other end was boarded up, and has yet to see use. On the other end, I divided it in 2 lengthwise with 3 shelves with slightly raised front edges on one side for tool boxes, and on the other side, a drawer for gloves at the bottom with a shelf for random bigger parts above it. On the end, I mounted holders for spray cans at the bottom, and I plan to find some solution for holding speed squares and the like above them.

For a perfectionist - how about two pieces for the top drawer. Kind of faux two drawers but actually pulls out as one? Could also then match the line going down between the other drawers.

Before watching your version of this workbench conversion, I watched another KZfaqr's version. In that version, he skipped an important step that, you did not skip. That step was test fitting the box under the workbench before proceeding with the rest of the build. He had to force fit the cabinet into the workbench, but, at the end of the build, it looked every bit as nice as yours does.

The holder for the sander is going to put uneven pressure on the sanding pad, warping the pad over time, which will cause the sander to create swirls and sand things unevenly. Random orbit sanders should always be stored resting on a flat surface.
