Just finished building this, didn’t even check anything. Got what you said to get, cut what you said to cut, came out great. Thank you.

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!

Excellent plan! I'm almost a Homer Simpson and I pulled this off without a hitch. Thanks!

Really great video, having the visual graphic was definitely a plus to the video. I want to use OSB for my top and bottom....its a work bench!

I'm a newbie. This video will definitely help me. Great job!

In 2022 you have to be rich to build this table! Great job!

How come no one is talking about adding legs in the center of the table? Since we're talking about the whole 8x4 I would assume it would sag a bit after sometime and with heavy load in the center. In my opinion adding legs in the center left and right side would make it stay straight. I'm definitely adding 5th and 6th legs when I build mine.

EXCELLENT INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEO....THANK YOU!!! EXCELLENT!!😎

Thank you, I made this table and your calculations/measurements were awesome...I wish I cud post a pic of my table for you to see

Thanks! I am going to build one 4x6 minus the casters for my sewing table. My current setup just isn't cutting it anymore!

Exactly what I was looking to build. Thanks!

Followed this for the most part. Great video 👍

Great project! This is a heavy duty bench and will last years. Thank you

Hi Dan. Thanks for the video. Just completed making one for my daughter. Three things I did slightly different. First, as per Daniel Grabske's suggestion, I did do a 2" overhang of the plywood along one of the 4' sides for clamping purposes. Second, for the storage space on the bottom shelf, I built the identical lower frame as the upper one, and placed the legs inside of the lower shelf (like the upper one is) So instead of starting with four 8' 2X4's , I started with 7' 10" ones to allow for the overhang on the upper bench(keeping the 4'X8' plywood sheet fully intact), and to maximize the lower storage shelf. So the lower OSB plywood sheet will have a dimension of 4' x 7' 10", with some jigsaw cutting required at each of the four corners to fit around the legs. This way also, your end and cross pieces of wood are all 45" long. Third, with regards to the castor wheels, instead of fastening them directly to the bottom of the legs(end cut strength not the greatest for fasteners), I cut four 5" square pieces of pine from a scrap 2"X 6" and nailed those in first into the bottom of the leg and lower frame. Then I screwed the castors into that, which allows for a stronger fastening point going into the side grain of the wood versus the end cut. The end result was just what my daughter wanted. With the slight modification of the lower shelf, it's width remains at 48" versus the 39" size of your table. Hey.....who can't utilize another 9 inches? Cheers!

Not for nothing but the shelf looks like OSB, not plywood. The video is great, with simple directions. Thanks so much

awesome build

Just finished mine. Great addition to my little workshop. Thanks!

Awesome video. Thanks for including the visual detailed plans

Definitely the best explained tutorial video I've seen you make it so easy to follow.

I really liked the way you explained this build. I can do this.

Very very nice. Affordable, is a plus. Looks like those extra hands were mighty useful too. Thanks for sharing 👍

Appreciate the video. I've been wanting to get into wood working for a long time and this table has been a great easy start.

Thankyou, thankyou for all the details! Very nice.

Great job

Great explanation of each step. Thank you.

Brilliant tutorial, thanks👍

9:39 very well done😊 video. Easy to follow and make screenshots of measurements. Thank you

Thank you for listing materials. That really helps us newbies.

I just finished making the work bench. Came out fantastic

Good Video! 2 quick observations: bottom shelf is OSB not Plywood, and the level is great if your floor is level. In my garage, the floor is anything but level! A reasonable lternative is a framing square, or large speedsquare. I check corners for square. Like i said, good video regardless!

Yea, I like this , nice job. I thought a 4' wide shelf might be too big but rethinking that now. either way, the design makes sense to me, which is a bonus :) Thanks for posting

Thank you, nice video, short sweet and to the point.

Your bench has lots of room for storage and large projects! Great job!

Good job! Simple, good narrative. Thanks!

Great video Dan, you have some skills. You made it look easy so I built one lol. Mine did not come out as nice as yours, but it will hold my model train layout perfectly. I will put some drapes over the table lol. Thanks.

Best tutorial, keep it up and I think you should do more videos.

Thanks Dan for the nice video. I must admit that I was skeptical at first about the integrity of this bench. I never saw you use a square or level in the video and wondered how level it would be, and without any wobbling. Well, I just finished my 4'x3' bench this weekend and it came out great. Thanks again. I'd love to attach a photo but don't see how.

Love the video very concise. However if I don’t have a one of them nice air hammers, could I use my drill for screws or do I need to do pockets holes if go that route?

Could you incorporate a table saw on one end?

A 3/4" X 4' X 4' X 8' sheet? Where do you buy 4 dimensional plywood? Sounds expensive

Like your table. What casters did you use? Thank you.

I’m interested in using this design but for theater purposes. Would this theoretically support the weight of someone if they were to stand on it? I’d imagine we’d need more crossbeams for support

What’s the estimated cost to build? Thanks.

👏👏👏👏👏👏😍😍😍😍😍🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

did you find that you needed more 1) cross pieces to support weight on the table? 2) the shelf? 3) additional support ion the centers of the long sides?

What kind of framing nailer? What size nails?

How well does is stay in place when wheels locked?

The only thing I would had done is had left a 2 or 3 inch over hang with the plywood , so later if need a place a clamp on the table you will have a spot for it.

what program did you use to show the drawings. the blue print looking program

Do I need the lower plywood sheet? Will it be stable enough without it?

A chop saw is used to cut metal with an abrasive wheel, a compound miter saw is used to cut wood wood. They are not the same tool.

1 stud in center only????

which measure is 4x8? meters? or that american "feet"?

I hate to sound like the picky jackass and I may be wrong (I am a lot of the time) what is a 4’x4’x8’ sheet of 1/2” ply or is it a typo adding a dimension?

In 2022 you have to be rich to build this table! Great job!
