Wife: How long will it take?
Me: About half hour to 45 minutes.
Kid: I'll help you, dad.
Me (to wife): Make that 3 and half hours.
I bought this same workbench at HF 2 years ago and I've used it pretty hard at times. I even mounted a bench vise on it. The only thing I didn't like about assembling this bench is that about 10 of the screws in the pack came with no threads on them. Still I can't complain because I got this bench for $68.00 because the box was severely damaged. The store manager said he'd discount it more if I took the damaged one, so I did. All the parts were fine. Thank you to the nice Mr. harbor freight manager man!
"...about 10 of the screws in the pack came with no threads on them."
Err, those are called nails. ;-p
Pro1er , they had hex heads on them, they weren't nails.
Something new from HF! Hex-head nails. What will they think of next?
I bought mine used for 20 bucks in 2012 still great, I went in and tightened it up and use it for my everything... love it.
I never knew I would like a Bear and the cubs so much. Thumbs up from down under. Too bad I don't have access to those stores and tools but I enjoy having a peek at the den.
Wow....a computer animated bear reviewing hardware. I KNEW the internet existed for a reason!
LOL, welcome to the Den!
Got this a couple of years ago for my wife to make jewelry on. We put it together together, was a bit of a bear..... It has done well, even survived a move earlier this year. She's at it now, hammering on some wire chain links.
That's a human hand. He's not even really a bear! *unsubscribe*
He's a werebear. Working vids shot during the day. Commentary shot at night.
Looks like a good gift for kids who need to get their first bench
I paid 80 for mine 10 years or so ago. In my condo workshop love it. Just fixed a drawer handle that pulled through. Just found four larger bolts and flange nuts
Very nice! A UPS system might help for a backup power supply for the workbench, but not required, only recommended. Plus an extension cord to hook up to vehicle inverter as another backup power supply which would be more reliable. Very nice workbench. Job well done.
Got it for a birthday present a few years ago and the only complaint I've had with it were the piddly little screws that came with the lighting mount hooks. They were so short that they didn't reach through the mounts to the underside of the wood. I had to use some other screws (which poked out the top of the unit) to attach them. Dremeled them down where they poked out and black Sharpie'd over the exposed wood.
Added two of those Harbor Freight 18" magnetic strips (back when they were free with a coupon) along the length of the pegboard and it's been a wonderful little workspace ever since. =)
I’d tighten that puppy up with a nice 3/4” plywood deck so the first time you whack something in that small vise you mount on it, it all wont end up on the bottom shelf. 🤪 I always re-support the less than sturdy “economy” item shelf supports too even if it’s a 2x2 just to add strength so in five years it only looks used, not like it’s just taking up space as a cheap bent trampoline... Give it a realistic workout n let us know how it handles being “bear handled” over time 😉 Thanks for sharing, good luck with it Red and shine on!
Just a hint... for foil reflector.. crinkle it up first, and then stretch it out... and use 3m77 spray adhesive to glue it down. Looks like a darn decent bench for the low going in price, Thanks for letting us know!👍🙋
I just did this. I had never used the 3m spray adhesive. Wow, that stuff comes out like a fine silly string!!
I was thinking about how you could replace the uprights with better angle iron but realized that at that point you might as well just download the assembly instructions and make your own beefier one with similar dimensions. Maybe a little more time drilling, unless you want to weld it.
I purchased 2, 5 or 6 years ago for 68 bucks. They are pretty decent when put together properly.
Got mine for about $75. I haven’t put it together yet.
Again, you have the cutest little cubbies ever!
Good to hear this is a good deal. If I had the room, I might be tempted.
Kid technique is classic! My 18 year old son just realized he put Ha
F our furniture together! When he was 12. Lol.
Wonderful bench, holy shit bolts beyond bolts. Never had something take so long.
I could vouch for them. Got a shit ton of tools on the peg board and a 6 inch vise mounted on it. And I've sat at it and messed around almost every day for six months lol.
Glad you got your Cubs working early in life to learn them some skills.
Ok, on the screw drivers, never ever get those cheap clear orange ones. I needed some for a quick project out of town and they quickly started spinning in the handle. No flange or any thing to keep them from spinning the handle off. I do like those you have and they even look like snap on.
👍👍Lol you kind of stuttered when you said you bought it with your own money😂😂
Had one of these in the box over a year jus dredding the day I would build it. Really wish it was easier and less time consuming to assemble geez.
I got one of these earlier this summer and it is pretty sturdy and a decent place to work. I did hate the assembly, that is a lot of little nuts and screws!
Chris Warfield ...I guess that’s the price you pay for low cost at the register. The smaller they can make the box the more units they can pack into the shipping container coming from China. High shipping volume and warehousing space for the retailer being just two factors in being able to offer a low retail price.
That is the Ikea business model in a box. (pun intended)
I bought and put one of these together. The assembly instructions are terrible, but I had an erector set as a kid, and have put other furniture together before. It is a decent bench, and am using it to build models and to put my desk top computer on. Better than what I thought😊
I just picked one of these up on a coupon for 79 bucks. Also got a few of those 19 dollar LED fixtures so one is going over the bench and I am tossing that cheesy light. Also have a sheet of half inch plywood and I am going to cut it to fit the top and the lower shelf and bond with construction adhesive and some wood screws. I will also fasten it to the studs on the garage wall and it's going to be a rock. I need an actual bench that doesn't have 5 reloading presses on it or a vice and a grinder. I need a flat virgin surface!!
The only thing that sucks about this bench is the instructions and assembly. I was 350 lbs and stood on it. Held me up. Definitely a buy it item.
I’ve been looking for something to put an all in one computer with keyboard and mouse for car specific software in the garage and after many hours looking at competition for the thought it’s the Best Buy at $79. Hands down.
I've had mine for probably 5 years now maybe 6 and it works fine but I've always had issues with the draws coming off the sliders but other than that it is enough of a bench for me.
WaybackTECH my left drawer keeps falling out completely- any ideas?
Good review, I agree with you on the assembly time. How did you know that I put the drawer together backwards?
Shine on
Louis Roy lol same
Assembly of the bench is easy with a couple of cases of Beer!!!!! 🍺 🍻🍺 🍻
As a good parents we limit the Cubs to a 6 pack when using power tools. LOL JUST Kidding
Thank you for talking about real world time. All these people online are full of crap.
Hey there. You mentioned that the one in the store didn't seem to be sturdy. The reason is that there are a lot people touching and shaking and running into and climbing under and over them EVERY SINGLE DAY. All the displays in the store are really handled a lot. Having said that....I have seen stores super glue nuts and bolts and attachments in place to help with wear and tear, and in some instances thief of smaller display pieces. Old displays usually are replaced yearly.
I was hoping the top would be wood(lol 'wood'). It's alright... I hated putting it together made me have a bowel movement at least twice. It's worth the cost. Thanks, Bear. Love the vids.
Hey mr bear I bought one of these yesterday, and the top shelf board did not come pre drill . So I had to drill those out. Other wise it’s a nice table and I was waiting patiently for that $79 coupon that I got. Then I had to jump on it....
One of the things I did with mine was put one of the $20 led work lights in there. That light it comes with is a bit weak.
The Den of Tools yea I put one of the 4 ft light made by Braun it fit perfect with a lil bit of modification on installing it tho. It lights up the whole table Beautiful.....👍
Always reinforce it later. Im gonna buy it and fortune enought to have access at work for aluminium angle
Nice video! Was wondering can you mount a vice to the table?
Wow Red! I actually just bought one today too! High five!
Awesome, are you going to do a video?
Nice video. Is the tin foil around the light your idea or per their instructions? Extra question. How's the compressor holding up? Do you do any spray painting with it? If yes, what gun? Thanks for posting.
No the tinfoil was my add-on to get more light on the work surface. The compressor is great. I am not currently painting with it. I used to do some paint work but that was some time ago. It's ok for small jobs.
Love your content man, but I would love to see more Tool Company History and more non-Harbor Freight vids. And I say that as someone you have swayed to make the pilgrimage to seek out 92% off deals at the HF tomorrow.
More history? I've been doing one a week and you want more? :-)
But that time with your young one is time well spent.
Anyone know how one can add caster wheels to the legs? Also how could I mount a 4’ shop light under the top shelf instead of using the small one that comes with it? Thx
I have done the "Reflective Foil Thing" for Yrs....On my lighting....
Thumbs up just for the talking bear lol
I bought this workbench today it was for 129 but if I get the club membership for 29 dllrs I'll get the members discount so I did it I pay the 29 dllrs and when I saw the ticket I saw that just paid 58 for the workbench a d the 29 for the membership for a whole year so the grand total was 96 with taxes it was a great deal to me. And I'm thinking on paint my workbench yellow and black like DeWalt 👌
Can you tell me if the power outlet could be installed on the opposite side of the bench?
Is there a secure way to attach a bench vice to it?
So, I don't have a garage, and want to get this, but the trouble is, I have such limited space that it will have to actually go either in my room or my living room.
As a result, I think I will want to repaint the metal before assembly a different color so that it will, well, not look like it belongs in the garage I don't have.
Any tips on repainting the steel? Not settled on a color yet, but I know it will be a much lighter color than the black it comes with.
It all comes down to prep. The more prep work you do, the better it will look. If you paint over it, it will look like you painted over it. Sand to bear metal and it will look much better.
I’m getting this for working on my rc cars
I ordered one of these last night 10-12-'18. I'm look'n to put it into a Bug-Out Trailer. I will use it as a place to work on what ever needs repair. And maybe as a place to make meals too(?). I hope I can drill a hole in the bottom of each of the leg's so I can screw it to the floor in my trailer to hold it in place. I think for $78.00 it will work good for what I need it to do🤞🏻 I also ordered the Pancake Air Compressor @ $39.99 also. I ordered that Staple Gun too @$15.99 it was supposed to be. But, they charged me $22.99.....I don't understand that at all? I e-mailed them on that, maybe Monday I'll hear something back??????
Red, if that screwdriver was a snap on, you would've paid 100 dollars for it. 😂
That's insane.
I paid 300 for an entire set. Best screwdrivers you can buy.
i have the olympia tools version from amazon and the drawers are garbage on that one too. it also has the boltless assembly which is not great. in theory it was. in practice, not so much.
I thought you said Mama bear said no new purchases. I am my family's designated assembler. How tall is the work surface? I hate having to be bent over to work on a bench it just kills my back when I have to.
35.5"
put a 2X whatever you need under that shelf to brace it
Just got one yesterday for $80 ... like has been mentioned don't go by the store display, it's a solid unit when assembled correctly. You'd better use a cordless gun to tighten the hardware during assembly as there's well over 100 machine screws/nuts that hold this thing together or you'll end up with carpal tunnel. I'm gonna have to try that reflective hack to get the light brighter ... I have access to a sheet of acrylic safety safety mirror, should be a bit better than foil.
OH, I came up with a better hack. HF sells a LED shop light that is on sale right now for $20. I was pretty skeptical of this as I have seen a lot of underpowered led shop lights. This thing is the real deal! And it just barely fits in the top of this bench. I'm going to use the other light for some other under cabinet lighting. And yes, it is a tricky install but so worth it.
@@denoftools The 4' Braun stock # 64410 ??? I don't see it in my current circular ... or is it on one of those paper flyers they stuff in your bag at checkout ?
Have you tried www.hfqpdb.com ?
@@denoftools Hey man thanks !! I never knew about that site.
Update ... Those lights have been impossible to get since my last post. I travel for work and was in at last three different HF stores, nobody had them. Finally got mine last night. Thanks again for the coupon heads up.
Hey bear,. I got a question. I know you got a lot of tools but what do you build and/or fix?
lol. I fix anything I can. I don't believe in tossing stuff and I have a decent understanding of electronics so I fix a lot of stuff around the house. That's what benches like this are for. Also, I am a bit of an inventor, I like to build misc things. I have built 3d printers and desktop CNC machines. And also misc projects around the house. I don't consider myself a woodworker, but I do work with wood. I was a carpenter 30 years ago but these days I'm just your average DIY'er.
Knew you'd end up getting one.
If I buy one my first stop will be lumber yard. Must replace crappy press wood. I use press woods enemy. Oil, Water, Solvents.
How's that miter saw working out?
Question ? Is it solid ? Or shaky a bit ?
HELP!! My drawer keeps falling out - the left one only. So random!
Can I put a bench vise on this table?
Can you install like 4 inches vise bench?
The older ones had HORRIBLE drawer slides. My drawers would constantly fall out and drop everything in them all over the place. I replaced them with decent drawer slides from Home Depot and it's great now. The newer models come with real drawer slides now.
how easy would it be to add clamps to this?
Link to it?
It doesn't look too bad.
when I get my new shed, im gonna grab one,,oh, have you seen the new line of Quinn tools?? they Have a line of 1/4 and 3/8 sockets, deep and short, 12 and 6 point, look just like Kobalt stuff,
It looks like the Pittsburgh pro tools
Bear... For that reflective aluminum foil, I would have precisely cut out a cardboard backing, used spray adhesive to mount the foil to it then hot glue the board to the bench overhang.
why?
Red Beard and The Den of Tools ..because I’m a neat freak. You glueing down that foil made me nuts.
Does this seem acceptable to have a lathe on?
Ooooh, now that u got a free miter Saw, the bench is good.......? SHILL!!!!! SHILL I SAY!!!! Nah just messin with ya. Looks like it’s worth $80 👍🏼
Brad i need to poop. I've been holding it in for a day. That shit's fun to me
Awww fuzzy! I’ll go live so u have something to keep u occupied. If you’re like me, taking a shit is the only “me time” I get lol
I try to tell that to my wife every time she walks into the bathroom!
Time to put the cubs to work.
About to buy one for $40 used on offer up
Has anyone attempted to mount a medium sized vice to it?
I wouldn't.
Wife: wth happen to my aluminum foil?
That did totally happen actually. I quietly replaced it later. She thinks she is losing it. lol.
Would you mount a heavy bench vise to it ?
No, not a "heavy" vise, like something you would beat on. But light to medium? Sure.
@@denoftools thank you for the response
$78.00? Damn good price for a work bench. Less than $160.00 for 2. Unless you hand built (Naam...ever listen to their accent?, Norm, from This Old House) I don't think you'll get a better deal. Imagine the price of having a Master carpenter build you a work bench? Of course, it'll last @ least 200 yrs. Better have 200 yrs. of boys in the family or a few generations of Tom Boy's tossed in. P.S. Give the cub an extra salmon for the help. 👍
Rookies...My son and I could put that thing together in 20minutes max with plenty of screws left over. LOL
anything Harbor Freight like this, Loctite or change the fasteners for Nylock nuts.
70$ I will build something else.
3 1/2 HOURS?!?! 😳
Well, he's got fat fingers that don't fit where they need to go and the cub's got inexperienced fingers that don't know what they're doing. The rest of us did it in under 2 hours. =)
Wait a minute that kid don't look like a cub bear that looks like a human you lied to us that kid is human HAHAHA LOL!😁😀😁😁
That's the cub of the free range human that lives in his shop ; )
Were is the Harbor jacket?
Yeah, I was lazy today. As you can see in my crappy edits.
Is it just me or does this thing always look like a really dark blue vs black
It is dark blue.
👍
What was the aluminum for
It reflects the light so you can see better.
What Wolfie there said. Sorry there was supposed to be a voice over for that spot and something happened to it. That said the entire inside of that light box is black and that's just a bad design. What would have been better is that aluminum insulation tape but it's what i had.
Um, Missus Bear doesn't watch your videos?
It's OK, I saw NOTHING!!
(Channeling Sgt Schultz here.)
steve
I paid 74 for mine
Craftsman like yourself could have made 1 out of solid bear arse wood for about the same price with led lights, probably wood (sic) be as good or better.
Looks like you're the King of the cheap tools. LoL
Nevada woman wanted for killing her husband for buying more stuff for his shop. She claims in her defense that he looked like a bear and panicked.
I've been looking bought HFT benches for a while. I priced the parts needed to DIY and not only is it more expensive but more time consuming. Time being money it's an awesome deal. I just haven't pulled the trigger yet.
Ummmmm, the anchor tat. NAVY, COAST GUARD or MERCHANT MARINE?
Anchor, cross and heart. Its a religious thing. That said I do, ok "did" sail but not in the service.
@@denoftools Dig up the neighbors back yrds. Add water &/or a trolling motor & putt putt. P.S. The fur on your arm was moving back n' forth so fast I just took a shot. With all the coloring I'm surprised it didn't burn into your fur cleaner. 👍👍👍
We had these EXACT work benches at my last job. They truly suck!
I assume you work at a hospital and perform surgeries on top of it right? Because you dont say where you work or why they suck, i can only assume.
They must-have been pretty cheap at your last job. These are really only meant for home garage hobby type work. Every place I've worked at had commercial/industrial work benches like Lyon. You can find them in mechanic shops to manufacturing facilities. And you can pick one up for cheap instead of this. I bought my Lyon work bench for $50 already assembled and will last dam near forever
Don't like the power outlet on the side. Not really user friendly
Yeah, it's not perfect. I'm planning to make some more mods to this.
It says it can hold up to 250lbs
Azzion smith I put my heat press on it with other heavy items holds up pretty well for $80 bucks
Yo big red
Hey there! Love the vids you have been doing with little basic!
@@denoftools Well thanks bud . That means a lot we appreciate you stopping by
😀👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I'm guess the foliel is to keep the voices out.
You hear them too?
79 bucks will by a bunch of 2x4s lol I'll pass.
Erstwhile good point. I have a pile of odds n ends 2x4 and plywood cuts could make a bench for essentially $0 in the same 3 hours.
@@One-Crazy-Cat yep and it would be 10x better then the harbor freight one.
I have the work stand which was cheaper. $25 instead of $78 however. I bought it and it's still unassembled. I was pretty busy, so it's still in the box at my King County, Washington home.
The Dark Phantom
Can you get 2x4’s and plywood for $0? Cause, I always can make a better custom work bench than I can buy.
You know, come to think about it, I would probably use a $10. Box of 10 cent nails building it
Also, today, I paid $2. For a soda pop at the market. Stuff is getting expensive brother.
Can you really buy the lumber and build it cheaper?
@@patrickfansler6844 2x4s are a little under 3 bucks a a peice, I'd use them for the table top as well sense it would be thicker and cheaper. Same size bench with nails or screws could defiantly be built for under 79 bucks
"Workbench"? Under the current political correctness terms, this thing should be called a laboratory bench. Okay, you convinced me. I'm gonna get one..How do I convince my neighbor to put it together? 🦅 Eaglegards...
Your right on that, this very much is a lab style bench and that is one of the reasons I like it.
Or it is called a "Workstation"
