How to build the ultimate work bench solution.
One thing I think that stands out with your table, is the tools are actually at appropriate heights for being used. As in all tools are at the right height to utilize the table as feeding/outfeed surfaces. VERY well done IMO.
Thank you! That was a very important part of the design.
That is very true super well engineered for sure
The bandsaw is the one that reallyu captures my attention!
Amen to THAT! And, absolutely NO ONE talks about that. And, while the “right” height, can be somewhat subjected, it would be nice to see someone talk about the height, and relation to other tools, as a subject in and of itself. This young man did a great job with this.
Am I missing something? Why does that stand out? How would it make sense to not have these things level with the table?
“Only 2 cars garage”? I know I’m picking on words. But you really live in paradise.
Yes, I am very blessed. I meant in comparison to a designated work shop.
This is one of the most efficient, logical and awesome workbench builds I've ever seen. Very impressive!
Awesome, thank you! Thanks for the feedback.
I'm sure you are loving the extra space and increased productivity! Being a retired design engineer I am very impressed with your work, one of the more functional wood working stations I have seen to date.
It is very convenient using the work bench and all the milling stages. Thank you!
Super impressive buddy, you’ve gone beyond the call of making something so diverse as this unbelievable workstation & ticked all the boxes, great work 👍👍👍
Thank you, I appreciate the generous compliment.
Hey buddy, firstly great job! Secondly, that outcome (the workstation) comes from well identified issues, thoroughly thought out problem solving and execution with serious detail. It’s a monster and if only I had that level of thought, ability and skill. Thanks for the vlog, definitely inspiring.
Thanks I appreciate that! If I can do it I believe anyone can. You already laid out the process very well. 💪
This is a great design. I've seen several done, but I really like this. The one thing I would change if I were doing it is how the casters function. Having them move independently will most likely cause the racking and eventually send the unit out of true. If you use a piece of angle iron or square tubing to connect them, it would cause the end to go up or down in unison rather than each corner by itself. Other than that, I think this is an excellent design. Well done!
I've though about doing that just haven't got around to it yet. That's a great idea, thanks!
Lol did you see the bending of the table when he was testing is? Just, ouch
Nice job. Tip for you... When enlarging a hole from a hole saw, put the size you want on the arbor and then add the size it is now. Should be enough room to thread them both on. Now just put original hole saw in and the bigger one will cut the hole larger. This is especially useful when the center of the hole(s) needs to stay put. They pop apart fairly easy with a screw driver after. Enjoy.
Thanks for the feedback and the tip!
@@phillipreborn anytime
I'm so glad I found your channel! I've spent weeks looking at workbench builds, trying to figure out how to fit all my tools and supplies into my tiny 10' x 10' shed. I added an 8' x 8' deck in front of it so I could wheel my really old Craftsman table saw in it's 60-year-old plywood cabinet with drawers and a built in small outfeed table, It worked well in the first year of working in the shed, but more and more tools were added, then lots of furniture parts and other clutter took over and now I can't even walk inside. I'm going to make your 4x8 workbench and have a home for all my similar tools, and make everything else either have a shelf or vertical pull-outs and get rid of the clutter so I can use the space again! I can't wait! Thanks for this great idea!
sounds good, you're welcome!
Kudos for the woodworking and imagination. As a retired design/builder, would have been glad to have hired someone this thoughtful with attention to detail.
Thank you very much!
The fold-down miter saw is perfect.
Thanks!
AWESOME build! I love the hand-drawn old fashion planning too. (and I might add, I'm incredibly jealous of wherever you live that you can work outside at night with your garage door open and not get eaten by mosquitos!) - Rock on bro!
Thank you I appreciate the feedback! NE FL so we have our fair share of mosquitoes certain times of the year.
Or by the neighbors )
There's no way I could work like that; having to setup and breakdown every tool as I needed it would kill any desire to build anything. Kudos for working through it!
Also, I've watched a few videos with builds like this bench and this one struck me as one of the better ones!
Thanks I appreciate that.
@@phillipreborn Still giddy as a school girl over your design. We all want that 4 x 8 mobile work station. I see great things for you. Add on lock in sectional pieces. I have to calm down. You have the ball, now run with it sir. Good luck and hurry before someone steals your....hmm...you need a catchy name also.
I love the free hand plunge with a fixed base router! Like a BOSS!
😂
My man, you show some great joinery skills as well as carpentry and engineering. All in all, if I could follow your design and get it all in my 12X16ft shop and fit my basic budget I will be in heaven. This holds everything my dream shop would have. Aside a few hand tools drill press etc... But my man. You are over the top. Wish me luck. For me, this project won't be overnight. Most likely an all-winter project. With some carryover.
P.S. I would like to see more on how you hinged everything. But I usually overbuild. Thanks this will stretch my brain capacity for sure. 👍👍🇨🇦
Thank you very much!
I hope you patented these plans and are talking to a tool company about selling them your idea! This is amazing!!
Thank you!
As an engineer over all a great design, but i would take advantage of the gap between the hinged tops that i did on mine.
Use a router t-track bit and route the gaps for a t-track hold down system.
the only other is the absence of a vise. An end vise instead of the top mounted type with dog holes is a great add-on to any bench.
Thank you and thanks for the input. I think those would be great features.
This is one of the best designs I’ve seen. A really good job. Thanks for sharing 👍😎🇦🇺
Thanks mate I appreciate that. Its my pleasure to share the build. Cool country you have there, I hope to visit someday. Have you seen the UA-camr "Self Sufficient Me"?
You can double up your hole saw on the same mandrel to guide the starter cut for the larger hole. Cool trick. Learned it recently put it to use it works. Forgot to add that I love this concept and your execution and work ethic is baller. Gettin'er done!!
Thanks for the tip!
I don’t ever leave comments on youtube videos really, but I had to stop here and say what an awesome feat of engineering and utility this is. I hope you find a way to profit off your design so that you can continue this awesome work- definitely adding this to a list of must have shop furniture for my dream shop.
Thanks! I appreciate that. Thank you also for taking the time to comment.
Awesome build. I have a similar situation of a small shop. Would love to see the plans once you get around to it. I love your ingenuity.
Thank you I appreciate the generous compliments. Here is a link to the plans and a link to a video that elaborates on them a little. www.etsy.com/phillipcreative/listing/955545412/simple-4x8-full-shop-workbench-plans?Copy&ListingManager&Share&.lmsm&share_time=1614306374860

Very cool build, I am impressed and would love to build something like this for my one car garage shop. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks, I appreciate that. I hope you do build something for yourself soon!
I'm an engineer (electrical) but I enjoy watching people build and create. I have a 25'X25' workshop and I built a similar 4X8 workbench that attaches to my table saw. I struggled with how I wanted to address dust collection. I have french doors leading out of my shop so I often push my table just outside under a covered entrance just to be outdoors. My dust collection, or control I should say, is a cordless leaf blower. My planer has a dedicated shopvac and separator, but the work table and saw just get blasted with the leaf blower to keep it out of the shop. It works for me and my location. I like how much thought you put into it. Keep it up! I like the design
Thanks for watching, I appreciate the feedback. Your comment reminds me of my automotive refinishing days. We would just sand away wearing a mask then blow away the dust with compressed air or a leaf blower. Sometimes its more efficient that way especially if you're outside.
People who disliked this are just jealous of your ingenuity. It's a great Workbench.
Thank you. :D
Great setup! I've been looking for portable inclusive multi-purpose (p.i.m.p) benches like this for hot minute. 📏📏📐✂️
Haha, thank you!
Wow! That’s very impressive! Good work man.
Thanks a lot!
Amazing job. So clean and functional. Being able to move this station outside is a game changer!
Totally agree! Thanks.
I’m in the process of building a 10’x12’ woodworking “shop”, little shed really lol.
I have the floor framed out and sheeted with 3/4” OSB.
I’ve been watching a bunch of videos looking for different ideas on out feed tables for my table saw, miter saw stations and mobile flip carts for planers and other tools.
This has got to be the best idea I have seen so far. I’m considering very seriously building this.
Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching and commenting. I'm happy to hear it inspired an idea.
Very very clever. And the beauty is you're safely storing your power tools when not in use, all in the same design.
Very true! Thank you.
Wow 👏🏻 next level man! Really need to get something like this built for my garage. This has to be one of the most creative workbenches I’ve seen to date. Subbing and looking forward to more content!
Thanks a ton!
Wow man this was incredible!!! I’m looking forward to seeing more of your content. I’ve never seen someone have so many unique and creative solutions in one build. Are you an engineer? Amazed man!!! Thanks for sharing
Thank you very much! I would like to be an engineer but no I am not. I got a lot of ideas from youtube then adjusted them to what I needed and the tools I had.
Love seeing a guy bustin it out w/ the garage open and dark as shit out... i too am the kinda guy that will NOT go to bed until the JOB is done!!!
😁 Thanks!
I built similar blast gates and also had to add a bolt to keep it from closing on itself. I glued a wing nut to the top of the bolt head to make it easier to open and close. Nice build 👏🏻👍🏻🇬🇧
Thank you and thanks for the idea.
Boy oh boy getting everything right is a must. I can imagine having a tool too low, and having product banging onto the exit plane, swinging doors getting out of hand and loosening up the screws/hinges but if everything was done fastidiously then what an incredibly space efficient system! I love that after you move it you can set it down on the floor and its solid as a rock. And you could plug it in and use the whole set up outside! A truly amazing design! You should approach a manufacturer and make them a deal. I would love to buy your system built for me! To build that would be like rebuilding a car from scratch - it would take me a year full of redoes...
Thank you!
Nice work man! This was very well planned out and neat!
Thank you for the generous compliment.
I like how you say "the moment you've all been waiting for" and then step into the shot with no shirt. Well, you're halfway there 👍😈🤭
Haha, funny how the timing worked out there.
What? He was talking? 😂 I must have been distracted.
All kidding aside, I'm finishing my workshop now and the space is smaller than I would've liked to have had. So this has really been inspirational. Fantastic job!
Seriously, one of the best work table ideas I’ve seen.
Thank you very much!
Jean at WoodShop Junkies built one of these. It's really a great idea for a small workspace. Great job!
Thank you very much!
Free handing router circles is quite the skill my man! Wow!
Thanks but it was actually a bit with a bearing guide.
I have been watching these types of videos for over a hear and this one by far meets everything I was looking for. Love the concept and thank you for sharing your ideas. Do you have some type of a power trim helping you lower the tools? I assume it's not just gravity, correct?
That's awesome, I am glad to hear that. If you are referring to folding the tools down it is just gravity and man power for now.
this is amazing! I'm curious, if you could go back to the drawing board, would you move the plainer to where you intended the router to be and vice verse. I saw (see what I did there) the fence of the table saw could block large board.
Thank you! That is a great option to move the planer. For what I needed it made sense to keep it next to the miter saw and share a vacuum tube with the router. The fence on the table saw is removable. 👍
All around great job. As Stephen said ensuring all tools are sitting to use the table as an extension of each tool was great planning. I also like the use of the magnets.
Thanks!
YOU BUILT A GREAT WORK SPACE FOR YOUR WOOD WORKING, GREAT IDEA BUB.
Thanks 👍
Beautiful build. It’s been a few months, I’d be very interested in knowing how the dust collection worked out. It seemed to me to be woefully underpowered. Other than that, I dream of building this table myself. *****
Surprisingly the bucket head does pretty well except on the miter saw. A little more power is always better.
p.caballero_creative do the magnetic connections work well with little to no air leakage?
That sir, is one helluva set up. Great job. Your magnetic vacuum duct solution for your planer is brilliant!
Thank you very much for the generous compliment.
Ok, you climbed into my head and solved the puzzle. I have all these tools and have been wanting to do something like this but didn’t have all the details worked out yet. How about I fly you down to Florida and you help me knock this out? TY for giving my brain a rest.
Thanks. Glad I could help!
All this impressive shit and dude’s got a Kobalt miter saw. Guess it proves that the tools don’t make the carpenter.
Thank you! I agree even though I'm just an amateur.
I've used a really small Kobalt moter saw and one of their 18 or 20 volt (not sure which voltage they claim, even though they're all the same) drills, and I must say that I was very impressed. I've had nothing but crap experience with their hand tools.
I bet the neighbors are loving his mini garage saw mill running all day. BUT A 1 JOB ON YOUR WORK STATION.
Thank you very much! Sadly I don't run it as often as I'd like.
@@phillipreborn I couldn't think about running a saw, my neighbors would be calling the H. O. A. the police the Mayor. They have nothing to do but watch, listen and report. Can't wait till our house sells and I can build a shop and get as far away from the granny gestapos as we can. One question for you, if you had a chance to buy a 2k radial arm saw for an incredibly low price would that be something that would be useful or something that is taking up space? Thanks for your reply, your work table was incredible, going to make an exact copy in about 5 months when my shop is built. Take care!
Here is an observation you have probably already seen: @14:24 you are showing where your router table will go and the planer exhaust. The router table doesn't need to be very far from the edge. You could off-set the spacing so the planer has more room and the router table has less. You would end up with a longer door on the planer and shorter on the router table.
It's a thought!
I love your work bench. I'd love to have one that fits through a 30 inch door and is 5 feet long. That's what I'm trying to design and build.
Thank you for your inspiration.
Thanks for watching and the input. I'm glad it could inspire an idea or two.
I think, this is one of the most creative things I've seen in a long time on UA-cam. You should patent this design and probably commercialize it.
Thank you, I probably should. :D
The smaller the shop the more important it is to make a workbench like this. My shop is 10' x 20'. With a full size table saw, full size bandsaw, 8,000 lb benchtop surface planer, large drill press, and a 3' x 7' assembly/workbench I had to learn how sidestep any time I entered tha shop. No fun, I couldn't even walk around my old workbench/table saw off feed unit.
Since my shop was about 18" off the ground I was able to position my shop vac and dust collector outside my bench, the main hose running under the shop to a diy plenum that was connected to each new benchtop tool, my table saw, and my router table which was built to fit between the arms of my table saw fence. I plugged all my tools into an automatic vacuum switch. The diy plenum has 6 blast gates mounted to it's top side, no debris to block the gates.
I can rip full sheet plywood or 8'+ lumber and have off feed support for router, table saw, surface planer and miter saw, neat.
Sounds good.
Don’t work with sandals. You gotta protect your beautiful tootsies.
indeed
Great workbench. Well thought out and versatile with a place for multiple tool. Would be overkill for my needs. I like the large work surface but I would only be needing the table saw and miter saw. I'm thinking though I could build a bench like that and add the other tools later. I have a small shed turned shop so I'd build mine to fold up against a wall. Very good work and video.
Sounds good. thanks for watching.
Great idea with the magnetic dust collection. I really like the ease of connection that provides and will likely be adding that to my small shop.
Glad it was helpful!
Man! Outstanding craftsmanship! For me it was seeing hiw strong the magnetic connection was with the vacuum hose connection.
Thank you! Yes those were surprisingly strong.
I rarely bookmark videos/pages/etc. This is by far a benchmark for the well conceived. Kudos to the attention to functionality without over obsession with prettiness. You say that yours is a small workshop, the beauty of your design is that it will fit within my 28x11 space whereby I can shift the unit from one side of the shop to the other in order to access all the features, as well as having enough space to build the small boats I develop. Will be consecrating the upcoming holidays to building my version. Thanks so much for doing all of the hard work! Essentially leaving me with just an assembly job.
Thanks, I'm glad to hear it helped.
That is really good...now you'll WANT to build stuff as it ll be a pleasure to do! No criticism, but I guess the compromise is a "divided" worktop, with all the gaps, but you could put a fresh board of ply or MDF on top for assembly if needed...I will defo be using some of your ideas😀👍
Thank you! Absolutely, it makes building things more efficient which makes the experience nicer overall. That is a good point. I still have my small work bench too but I can see how that could be an issue.
I want to see how the dust collection systems works. Love the build! Need to get one of these together for my new barn. No benches yet. Working off of saw hoses and plywood. Lol
Thanks. Coming soon!
This does a great job of identifying a solution to a common problem. Now imagine if one of the major tool companies took this and ran with it? They could do things you can’t like put the dust collection ports in a good location and really integrate. If they were smart it would be somewhat modular starting with the table saw, bench, and dust collection and add on from there.
that would be cool..
I liked this anyway, however the video is unwatchable for me. Hearing the background music in both ears, while at the same time your commentary only being on the left side does my head in too much. Too hard to focus.
Yep, rookie production mistake. Stereo vs mono thing.
Offff tough crowd! I didn’t even notice the mono / stereo 😂 good video keep up the work :)
@@MRSCOTTZDyou didn't watch with headphones then. I came here to make the same comment as OP. Very distracting.
Do you have the blueprint for this build? I'm a beginner and I been moving my tools around like you did. Thanks
There's nothing I hate seeing more than someone working with power tools while wearing flip flops. It doesn't seem like a big deal until something goes horribly wrong.
Yep, safer shoes are recommended.
Shut it bro. The guy builds the most bad ass work bench you’ve seen and you talk about his flip flops.
Well despite all the great comments, it would be real nice to see if it all works, and especially the dust collection, you spend so many hours and me and many others needs an update thanks for sharing.
Noted. There will likely be an update soon.
I plan on building something like this for my miter saw, table saw and router. I really like your magnet dust collection hose solution. I don't have a planar, but it seems like that outfeed for the vacuum line will move with the planar as you open it to mill larger thickness lumber. I guess if you only ever need to run 2x through, you'll probably be fine.
I've watched a lot of build videos and this one was really well put together. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you. Yes, the vacuum line seems to have enough flex for the planer.
Wow! This table is amazing! And it was incredibly satisfying watching you take such minute care with each step! Bravo!
Thank you so much!
I had to chuckle a little when you said I only have a two car garage for a workshop (wish I did). Appreciate the video and love the bench. Hope you have turned out some awesome projects. Thanks.
I must say that I don't like the gaps in your work surface that are left by the various hatches, but overall this is an absolutely brilliant concept and execution; solid 9.9/10. My only complaint is the gaps in the work surface, and that really is a minor complaint that seems to me to be easily fixed. I have absolutely zero indoor work space, only a shed to store tools. I'm looking for a solution to give myself a much easier way to work with/move my tools, and this is an absolutely brilliant inspiration. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Thank you very much.
Interesting effort and a good product. As an old Builder I’m sure you will spend many hours lying awake conjuring improvements. Just pop it onto a drop car trailer and you have an incredible job site bench…or….! Keep up the good work and videos eh!
Thank you. Great point!
I had a tablesaw bench a few years back (3ftx 6ft, i did something similar to what you did with the miter saw, except I attached the hinges to the front edge . The top hinged backwards and there was an I screw on the bottom. where I attached some paracord.
When you lifted the top It would lift the miter saw up, and when you flipped the top all the way over, it would hold the miter saw up, and 'perfectly' flush with the top of the bench.
It was actually my first table saw, and I had only really been woodworking for a few weeks before I started the project, which only took me about 6 hours (tbe table was already built and i was retrofitting the miter saw into it)
Sounds good.
I would’ve chosen the 3 car garage method. But good job !!
Me too, if it was an option 😂
One of the most original Ideas I've seen on youtube!
Seeing this for the first time. Incredible and makes me want to upgrade my own again. 👍🏻 awesome job
Awesome! Thank you!
Holy Moly! That is so genius! You design inspires me to try to make something like it.
Thanks! that's awesome, glad to hear.
You get a sub and thumbs up for showing your normal (messy) shop space. The film crew & helpers, $10K tools, and 2000+sqft shop channels get old with their builds.
Thank you, it is much appreciated!
You have real skills to get all the doors to work so good and still for a level surface.
Thanks!
Great design and build. Admire your freehand router work. Magnetic vacuum connection very clever.
Thank you. 👍
Thats awesome man, As soon as im done finishing my basement I would like to build something similar like this for my garage to save space! Thats for the video.
Love to hear that! You're welcome.
That's the exact same table saw I have. It's been a good saw, but I really want a miter sled, but that one has it's own system for doing miters. Great build.
I've been happy with the saw so far also. I might upgrade to one that can hold a Dado blade eventually.
Honestly super cool idea and I am going to steal some of these concepts. Only think I woulda done different is using a wooden U slot to slide the dust collection hose down into instead of magnets. Super cool idea, great project!
Thanks! Sounds great. I like that idea of the wooden U.
Love the build. For me though I want to see how you measured everything to make each piece fit
Thanks!
BTDT. Had to make one for my 10 x 20 shed. Works great, so much better than a workbench and table saw in the center and the other tools around the walls taking up space. Cudos to you.
Very helpful indeed. Thanks for watching.
I really love this design and as I am getting my 2 car organized for wood working, this may be what I am looking for! I did have an idea for the miter saw dust collection: build some sort of hood behind the tool and use the vac hose for it. I thought of that while watching as I am thinking...wait....I see an update video. I am gunna watch it then delete this if it covers that. lol
That is a good idea. Miter saws really do need a hood style dust collection. Something collapsible like a tent comes to mind.
You should get a hose with attachments that you can connect to the collection hose with magnets for the planer. This would allow you to vacuum the top of the table quickly and easily.
I like that idea. 😎
Sir, what you have created here is nothing short of amazing. It is plain to see you put a considerable amount of thought and planning into the project before you even touched the first piece of wood. You can be very proud of what you have created and here is a big 'THANK YOU' for sharing it with us. If you don't mind, I do have a couple of questions.
1) Now that you have had a chance to put your creation to use in actual shop conditions, what do you think if it? In other words, if you were to build another work bench, what, if any, changes would you make? Why?
2) How did you decide on the correct height of the work bench, measuring from the shop floor to the work surface? You will spend a great many hours standing at this bench, especially when you have all the tools put down and are just using it as a table. It needs to be built to your height so you're not 'stooping over' a bit which is a perfect recipe for back ache. I've seen a great many work benches built here on UA-cam, but I've never seen anyone explain how they arrived at the correct height. Is there some 'special formula' that will give the correct table height according to how tall the operator is?
I appreciate any advice you can give and again, THANK YOU for sharing this with us.
Thanks for watching. I have a "2 year review" video addressing some of the changes I would have made. I think I determined the height by what would be a comfortable working height for accessing the infeed and outfeed of most of the tools.
Awesome job, very detailed. Would have loved to see it in action (the dust collection).
Thanks, I'll try to do a demo of the dust collection sometime.
Glad to see all the Ryobi love in your shop. That brand gets a bad rep, but I find them to be good little tools for the price.
Thanks, I agree. Of course higher quality tools would be better but they are decent for their price. They've got a lot of jobs done for me so far.
Good job! One suggestion, maybe make a bigger gap along with the center of the benchtop, like a channel, that way you can cut a full sheet of plywood as well.
Thank you and thanks for the idea!
What a great concept for a small shop area. I have. The same problem and your build has given me some a great way to organize my shop. This is the best solution I have seen. Thank you very much for sharing it.
I am happy to hear it was helpful. Thanks for watching and your comment.
Well done! I'm so happy my shop is 24' × 20' and it's still not big enough LOL!
Thank you! 👍
Oh, man! You engineered the crap out of that. Awesome job. Great ideas. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thank you very much! Anytime.👍
It gave me a couple of ideas for the mobile workbench I plan on building, but structurally I think I will do it a bit differently.
Sounds good!
Fantastic project! Gas lift springs would be a good safety add on, prevent lowering “mishap”, (more me, than you). Thanks for sharing. Now, just need to get everything, and buy some time and skills...
My pleasure to share the build. Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.
Super cool build, very impressive. That’s a very cool rolling work shop
Thank you very much! 👍😁
That's fantastic. I have exactly the same problem in my garage shop. I'm absolutely going to do something like this.
Thanks. Go for it! I hope it works out.
great idea, thumbs up on the video. the only issue I have is the audio was split and your voiceover is only coming out the left ear.
I bought those very same casters from Amazon because of this video. thank you!
Thank you. Yes, that was a rookie mistake. I didn't realize it was single channel for some of the voiceover.
I thought I was cool setup in a 7x14' box truck. Your design and build is awesome. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you 👍🚛
Awesome design man! Wish I was as lucky to "only have a two car garage" as a shop
Thank you! Yes, I'm very blessed to have a 2 car garage.
I don't have the room to do anything like this type but wish you all the best with your excellent design it's one of the best I have seen.😊
Thanks, I appreciate that.
Super nice and tidy! I would consider using magnets to hold the dust gates open instead of the screw.
I like that idea!
This is a bold statement, on all fronts, but this goes up there with the Ultimate Workbench, from Ron Paulk, that self vacuuming dry-wall sander from Festool, and the Dyson Vac. Good form and mindfulness to all of the needs of the user/operator. I give this an 8+ out of 10 for it's usability to transition to rapid prototype for further manufacturing. This desk is AWESOME! THANK YOU!
Thanks, I appreciate that!
Fantastic build!
Based on what I see in the video, the only thing I'd change (other than adjusting measurements for my particular tools) would MAYBE be to mount the blast gates so I could use "permanently mounted" dowel rods through the legs to open and close them, instead of contorting my old back to reach down into the bench.
Actually, I probably wouldn't, but it would be on the top of my "I need to _____" list.
Thank you! That is a great idea.
