It’s so funny to me how many people focus on a squeak. I figure if you can come up with this design you know how to fix it if you want too who cares I don’t. I like your design and how simple it is to build, and I am planning on coping it just with bigger casters do to my bench is heavier. It will be easier than using my floor jack and dollies. Keep the videos coming.
I’ve been looking to design something that I could have rolling benches and this is got to be the simplest and easiest design I’ve seen yet. Thank you for sharing. I plan on building five
But apparently you have a busted volume control. I seriously can never understand people complaining about the construction noises in videos that obviously have construction in them. Lower your volume prior to starting the video. Then adjust as needed. Simple as that. It leads me to believe the problem isn't a busted volume control, but a pre-existing problem between the keyboard & chair. Or at least one of the more repulsive personality traits of having to complain about something, anything, and if something can't be found to complain about... make something up.
A little paste wax on the pipe where it goes thru the wood and maybe on the lifting structure would smooth out the movement and help with that shieking. Very clever build.
I've been looking for something like this and pondering on it for awhile now. This is a good idea.....interesting design.....but not sure it will safely carry the weight of my bench with the wheels positioned inside the legs. My benchtop is made from a section of bowling alley and the legs are 4x6's. The rest of the framework is 2x6's and 2x4's. So, it's fairly top heavy and won't have low slung support structure in the front or midway to the back structure to counter that weight. I intend to build individual, mobile tool storage cabinets, to fit underneath. If the bench would ever fall over, I'd likely need to use the skid loader to raise it again.....if I wasn't underneath it. With some tweaks though, I might be able to make it work. Thank you for your video.
Those old bowling alley sections make some very nice, and solid, benchtops. With storage underneath that's a very impressive setup! Thanks for watching and leaving a cool story!!
Instead of boxing in the wheel lifts, drawer sides would have been a good and a lighter weight option. But your method works. Can't argue with success. Thanks for the share.
I really like this design on how to lift the heavy workbench with some kind of external action from the main body. I definitely I'm going to replicate it. One small suggestion though--The lever outside is a little too long which can be a little inconvenient for some people. I understand also that you need to have some manual power in order activate the whole thing. So I was thinking that perhaps one way to avoid that long pipe is to break it in two parts with an "L" connection that allows you to have half of it remaining within the side where the lever rest. Thank you for sharing this great idea.
Lovely! Candle wax in the wooden hole the pipe pivots in, would make it silent and you could move the bench without noise complaints from the neighbours. 😜👍🏻
That screech of the pipe would drive me nuts every time I wanted to move the bench. I definitely would have waxed the ends before assembly, but now that it's already made, I would put some silicone spray into each hole that rubs. Interesting idea.
I've looked at several different designs. One of the things I like about your design is that it lifts about 1 1/2 inches. Which is much higher than other designs I've seen. This allows use on rougher/dirtier floor and could possibly be combined with larger wheels for the same reason. It does require both wood and metal working though. I'm not fond of the noise created by the pipe bearing on the wood hole. So if I use your design I may use a lubricated metal bushing or bearing instead.
Interesting design. Reference the s reaching: it does not impact performance, but is certainly an assault on the senses; sand the inside of the hole a little; sand the outside of the metal pipe a little, where it goes through the hole; apply a little paste wax to both surfaces. It will work much more easily and reduce or eliminate that screeching. And be careful! Placing the casters so far inside the footprint of the workbench can make somewhat unstable. Best wishes!
A little bees wax would would tame the screeching. Now that it's in use, it doesn't move very often, and yes, it's moved carefully. It's great to be able to move a bench and set it down solid again. Thanks for watching! I appreciate the comment!!
If someone has not said it already,, a little johnson's paste wax on any moving part would do wonders for the squeaks and they sell phillips #2 bits by the dozen packs. I like the dewalt packs, but, prefer Torx drive, or the lesser square drives.. And, a dip in some wax would go a long way in making those screws run easier too.. Good thing to keep on the bench. Same as vaseline when you are mig welding for the tip in the welding portion of the shop for me.
Put some dang grease on that baby. I like the build but would have used better rollers of a heaver grade. Learned this the hard way. Thanks for the share
Well, that wasn't really the intent, but it has become clear over time that the squeaky was a bit overdone. Thanks for watching the video! Great Comment!!
Maybe a bushing or bearing to reduce the unpleasant squeaking noises could be introduced in a version 2. Bearings would make it both quiet and reduce overall friction making it even easier to lift, not that it is difficult to lift but it would just make the whole thing more pleasant. Having said this, these are luxuries and the build you did works perfectly well and the squeak is only going to be heard in the odd occasion when you need to move the bench. Great video, I enjoyed watching it.
I have been looking at many ideas for lifting a workbench and this is one of the best but why not out the mechanism at the bottom and avoid the wooded frame ?
I wanted the handle at the top where it's easier to grab and that allows some structure on that bench to hold the moving part. Thanks for the question!
Any reason you did not put either some ball bearings along the sides of the lift or at least some HDPE , like a cutting board or stock used for sleds to make it slide better? Also you could use some Johnson paste wax at the very least. That squeaking got old real fast and I would want to do something to prevent it. Final question, do you have enough lift in case you need to raise your adjustable legs all the way out? I was thinking you could have maybe used a wheel on a post for the level cam so it could be extended a little should a little more lift is needed. I guess you could have also just used the rollers on a shaft for the four wheels and just adjusted those instead too. Nice idea . Thanks
There's not much need for a bearing beyond the block of wood it runs in, but I would put a little beeswax on it before sliding together on the next one. Thanks for the comment!
Some grease on the torque tube bearings would quiet it a bit. I like how the bench top let's the handle go just past center so it will stY in the raised position. But the length of the handle could be a problem in so.e spaces.
He might need extra length when the bench is finished and loaded up for mechanical advantage when it's a lot heavier. Still, a longer, narrower bar slipped into the fatter stub might do the trick if it doesn't get lost or inadvertantly used on another project.
My only "problem" is the noisy squealing sound that makes EVERY TIME you move the handle!! PERSONALLY, before I put the pipe into the wood frame, I would have taken a small amount of Finishing Wax on my finger and rubbed just a small bit into each hole the main pipe ran through!! This would also give a little lubrication to it as well, you wouldn't have that annoying squeal, and made the action smoother as well!! Another thing I would have done slightly different is....I'd have added a small detente in the 2X4 that contacts the lift wheels (welded to the pipe) for a sort of "locking feature". So when it was in an "up position" it would be slightly "locked into" that position!! Overall though it is a great video and the logic behind it is very sound!! I really DO like the build as I have been looking for a way to make a mobile workbench myself, and this may solve a couple of problems I have had in the designs I am tinkering with!!
I have to add.....the problem with my designs are, 1) I don't own a garage or a shop with a concrete floor, SO I need to use casters that will work on grass. AND secondly my design has to be small enough to fit through a standard door opening (36 inches)!!
When the lift is in the up position, the straight casters that do the lifting go slightly over center so they hold the up position. Thanks for the detailed comment!
Just wondering why you don't lubricate the initial hole bores? Wouldn't some oil be better for the life of the drill bits? (I'm a novice so maybe this is a well known thing, I was just wondering)
It's good to lube the bits, but I usually don't on relatively thin mild steel material like this if it is cutting OK with a good sharp bit. Center punching the hole is always a good idea. A pilot hole helps a lot since you're not forcing the chisel point of the drill into the material. This is why some guys "split the point" on the bit when sharpening or simply use split point bits where the entire end of the bit is cutting and there's no chisel point to force through. Thinning the web has the same effect on the larger bits. Simplest method is to just use a center punch and a pilot hole, and keep the bits sharp. Thanks for the question!
"WHAT!!?? I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER THE SOUND OF THE SCREECHING!" ... Use paste wax, or a bearing on the next one. For the love of your ears, please. Honestly though, This is a great idea. Well done!
What is the name of the tool, used to tap those threads? I'm not talking about the tap itself, but the thing that allows you to use your mill or drill press for alignment.
That's a spring loaded tap guide. Very handy little device to hold the tap straight with the hole just drilled. Thanks for watching and leaving a question!
Nice project. Congratulations. Over engineered not accounting for the wood expansion due to the weather. Please this is constructive criticism. Don’t be upset.
Like the design, I don't like the squeak it makes... pondering on it, a design with bearings would reduce that high squeak, but if I'd go that far, I'd go for a gear and bike chain design... quite a bit more work, and make an interesting video, little redundant since you made this one lol
The chain design could be interesting depending how the lift movement is configured and maybe get a little extra leverage for lifting. A little beeswax would tame the screeching on this one. Thanks for the comment!
The handle sticking out the side would anger me and would make my bench not fit and other tool stands and such not flush up to it when not in use. I would prolly use a “tee” connector and offset it inside the bench legs. Shorten the boxes you made to account for space under the bench. Prolly build a third one for additional weight. But all four wheels with one motion, and not walking all the way around your bench to deal with individual lifting casters is pure gold and you can store your bench in a corner if you want.
I like this video so much, I'd like to send you some WD40. Thank you sir. Couldn't you have done the same using wood? I've seen a few Retractable caster videos recently. Great idea!
like learn how yo use your tools. wrenches and channel locks have a direction they are meant to be turned. The first 20 seconds in and you are fighting to keep the pliers closed because you are turning them backward. Sorry it is a pit peave of mine. I will finish the video now.
I saw him struggle to tighten the fitting, not keep the jaws of the pliers closed. Ohh, and BTW, it's pet peave, not "pit peave". You should always remove the boulder in your eye before pointing out the pebble in the eyes of others.
@@williamallen7836 if you want to make fun of a person with a learning disability that is fine by me. Me miss spelling a word when having learning disabilities in English class. is not the same as making a video to teach others how to learn a skill!!! If you must know I have dyslexia and my English teachers never wanted to work with me. So if you want to be a dick go ahead. I am also disabled and currently in the hospital if you want to make more fun of me. I have a nerve disease and can't hold my bladder either. So that should make you feel like a big man to make fun of. This dude is teaching folks how to use a tool not spell. So if you can't see the difference you are just a smart A$$
@@jvmiller1995 I don't care what you suffer from. Your outrage threater has zero impact. As if I have special psychic powers to know your life story, and chose to single you out for it. 😂 If you are going to call someone out for a small error, you better make sure you are not guilty of similar. You just may get called out for it. Who knows, he may be dyslexic as well. Yet you have no concern about how your poking fun at a possible fellow dyslexic may have made him feel. I am dyslexic myself, and had teachers who refused to teach me starting in the 2nd grade. Yet I have never used it as an excuse. I use the tools available to me. Such as autocorrect, a quick web search, etc. While I may not be in the hospital, I have significant nerve damage from child abuse, young onset Parkinson's, 38% urinary retention, and other health issues. Yet I don't use it as an excuse to be a jerk to others, or as an attempt to elicit shame in others when they call out jerky behavior. So save the sob story, and focus on not being a jerk to others.
I was just getting ready to say the same thing about how he was using the Channel locks. If you use them in the correct direction, they get tighter on what you're grabbing 😮
On this application, it needed the vertical structure to hold the frame with the wheels and I wanted a height easy to grab. A base arrangement would work well with a foot driven setup. Thanks for the comment!
OMG... Next time around, pause the recording for 10 seconds, and lubricate that squealing handle / joint! I had to quit in the middle of the video because my nerves just can't take it...
Need to improve your video skills. Spent the first 10 minutes looking at you use every tool in your shop without any idea of what you are trying to accomplish. Oh look, another fellow joint a 2x4. Oh look, he is using a drill press. You could have started with an tour of the finished item with a voice over. Could have COMMUNICATED the whole thing in under 3 minutes. Design concept is okay but footprint looks narrow and maybe tippy. Depends on weight distribution of workbench. The traverse pipe looks like it would take up a lot of usable space under the work top.
The only real downside is that horrible screaming! A bit of wax may help. Alternately, some bushings or bearings would do away with the noise. OUCH! LOL Nice idea. Well presented. Thanks.
I love my copy of your design, I can call in elk from a mile away!
I like that part too, if it screams at me I will know it's working! 😁
How to use as many different tools as possible 101. The idea was awesome.
Came here late at night for the workbench ideas, got my girlfriend scared of the sounds instead. Fair enough, thanks.
Good to see another way of giving a bench wheels. It is interesting to see other options.

Thank you! I appreciate the feedback!!
Here I am jumping all over the video just to find a clear shot of how the mechanism works.
There are fixed casters secured on the pipe that act as a cam. When it's turned, they force the second set of legs with casters down as they rotate.
I got it. I was just commenting on the video.@@CLove511
Lubrication please!!!!
1) Great design. 2) I want to hurt you now because I have speakers and working ears.

🤯 Mach da mal Schmiere ran!
I'd tell you what I think, but you'd be unable to hear it over the screams of your bench lift.
Add some wax to quiet that thing down so we can't hear it when you move your bench. 🤣🤣
Please add Vaseline to the pipe pivots! The squealing is horrible.
Entertaining but unnecessarily complicated design
Real
get some oil on that thing unless your going deer or elk hunting.
Too much work for a minor issue that can be solved easily with castors that raise the bench's leg when peddle is depressed.

This dude is teaching folks how to use a tool not spell. So if you can't see the difference you are just a smart A$$
@@jvmiller1995 I don't care what you suffer from. Your outrage threater has zero impact. As if I have special psychic powers to know your life story, and chose to single you out for it. 😂 If you are going to call someone out for a small error, you better make sure you are not guilty of similar. You just may get called out for it. Who knows, he may be dyslexic as well. Yet you have no concern about how your poking fun at a possible fellow dyslexic may have made him feel.
I am dyslexic myself, and had teachers who refused to teach me starting in the 2nd grade. Yet I have never used it as an excuse. I use the tools available to me. Such as autocorrect, a quick web search, etc. While I may not be in the hospital, I have significant nerve damage from child abuse, young onset Parkinson's, 38% urinary retention, and other health issues. Yet I don't use it as an excuse to be a jerk to others, or as an attempt to elicit shame in others when they call out jerky behavior. So save the sob story, and focus on not being a jerk to others.
I was just getting ready to say the same thing about how he was using the Channel locks. If you use them in the correct direction, they get tighter on what you're grabbing 😮
@jvmiller1995 hope you get better bro
Turned a 5 minute video into 15 minutes!
Why not just put the cam arrangement at the base and use that to move the wheels.
On this application, it needed the vertical structure to hold the frame with the wheels and I wanted a height easy to grab. A base arrangement would work well with a foot driven setup. Thanks for the comment!
Looks kinda like a Jimmy D. project. Looks kinda like a Jimmy D. video........
Little bit of graphite spray goes a long way....
Bar soap rubbed anyplace wood is being "rubbed" is an old wood drawer trick.

Candle wax works well too.
Retractable casters-$50 😂
Very nice but simple it is not!
DEAR GOD WAX IT.
OMG... Next time around, pause the recording for 10 seconds, and lubricate that squealing handle / joint! I had to quit in the middle of the video because my nerves just can't take it...
Gotta do something about that damn unsettling noise. Omg
Needs grease. 😳
oil that thing.
Need to improve your video skills. Spent the first 10 minutes looking at you use every tool in your shop without any idea of what you are trying to accomplish. Oh look, another fellow joint a 2x4. Oh look, he is using a drill press. You could have started with an tour of the finished item with a voice over. Could have COMMUNICATED the whole thing in under 3 minutes.
Design concept is okay but footprint looks narrow and maybe tippy. Depends on weight distribution of workbench.
The traverse pipe looks like it would take up a lot of usable space under the work top.
Squeek is abhorrent!
REALLY don't need to see EVERY SINGLE SCREW driven in. BORING!!!!
The only real downside is that horrible screaming! A bit of wax may help. Alternately, some bushings or bearings would do away with the noise. OUCH! LOL
Nice idea. Well presented. Thanks.
Yes, the squeaking was probably a bit over done. I appreciate the comment! Merry Christmas!!
