The "Ultimate Workbench" is a dream to have in the shop and after moving into my new shop I have decided to design and build a slightly smaller version better suited for the garage workshop. This Versatile Workbench is an absolute beast. Spanning a respectable 4' x 6' there is plenty of space to utilize as an outfeed table, assembly table, and even a router table!
With all that you've come to expect from an "Ultimate" build this workbench has everything that you could ask for.
- Dust Collection
- Electrical System
- Parts Organizer Bin Storage
- Router Table
- Deep Drawer Storage
I also have a smaller version of this workbench design:
"Shmedium" Workbench [3'x5']

How have the casters held up? More specifically, the 2x4 they are attached to? You attached them to the cross pieces, which makes me think that the entire weight of the table is being held up by the pocket screws attaching the cross pieces. Please correct me if thats not the case. I really like this design, but want to understand that part.

Great job Travis. Can't wait for the other videos. I'm doing a remodel of my shop and as soon as it's done this will be one of my first projects to make. Keep up the excellent work. So many KZfaq woodworkers when they get big move away from the everyday projects and just do a bunch of vlogs. BTW, other plans that I've purchased have been spot on and extremely easy to follow for anyone who may consider getting one of your project plans.

Hey Travis you kick ass. Your editing makes watching the videos easy. You’ve done your homework and it enjoyable to watch. Enough of that, I like how you work through the project I think like most of us we don’t want to build it a second tome and settling is what it is but figuring out on paper first is huge and your work shows.

Awesome looking bench, cant wait for part 2. Ideally jointing should only be done on 1 edge and and 1 face. Doing both edges can create a wedge shape piece of wood since neither side is parallel to the other. Try doing the other edge with the table saw to keep your boards edges parallel to each other.

Nice start to the build! I had to chuckle at your reference to the thickness of the jointed lumber being 3.25... I can always tell when someone has an engineering background. As you know, woodworkers here in the US tend to use fractions (3-1/4). But as a mechanical engineer by trade, I get it.

Great info, fun to watch. I'm going to build this very soon. I've been in the woodworking business for 40 years and I learn something new everyday. Not sure if anyone else has mentioned it but in all the shops I've worked in and owned, wear gloves while using machinery is a no no . . . The glove can catch the blade that's turning and it will pull your hand into the blade. Keep up the great work!!

@pemtax557 2 жыл бұрын

As a retired design engineer, I love to view videos of other woodworkers' designs of benches, jigs, fixtures, etc. So far, what I've seen of your new bench, the design is both well conceived and easy to duplicate. I'm looking forward to viewing the follow-on videos to see how it all comes together. I'm thoroughly enjoying your video, you have a natural speaking style that makes the video easy to watch without sacrificing quality of content. Keep up the good work, Cheers ... Dave

@markkirkpatrick6299 6 ай бұрын

I was right there but the comments about the wheel strength then attatching to a single pocket screwed cross stud not the double glued and screwed legs was kinda giving me shivers... Definetly not going to get close to the rating that way .... Though probably not a real issue for the intended use ... Ah, the MDF will help still like pole barns hanging trusses off bolted in headers instead of on top of posts ... no likey the stress is all on the fasteners not the material

I built mine at 3.5x6' and I love it, I wouldn't have made it bigger or smaller! I have 1/2 of a 2 car garage as my shop, and I built an 1.5x12' bench along the side wall. THAT is a little excessive, but I like being able to stage things there and still have space for other stuff

Last workbench I built was made out of driftwood I found on the beach. The top is 4x8 by 6ft boards. I drilled 1/2 inch holes through 3 of them in 3 different places and the fourth one I threaded with a tap. I used all thread to hold them together and it turned out pretty nice. The frame and sides were 2x6. It looks like it is over a hundred years old.

Having just built my own combination saw-table/outfeed/assembly table albeit for my little DeWalt 7491, I think the ideal size for average 2-car garage weekend workshop is around 3x5 feet assuming a discrete table saw. Mine is closer to 3x6 because it also serves as a stand for my job saw.

I've used those casters on a number of projects. The dial is a little fiddly to use, but they immobilize whatever is on them like no other caster I've used. Even fully locking casters don't compare. The only thing I've found that's better, but not cheaper, is floor locks.
