Hey guys, in this video we´re finally finishing the top frame assembly that will hold the replaceable table top surface. Also more dovetailing in this one!
This is the third video in a longer series about making a versatile Workbench/Workstation. This project is especially awesome for small workshops but the general construction methods can be used for any size wood shop!
The design is based on a workbench from a German woodworking magazine, presented in two of their issues that I bought a couple of years ago and in this video:

Once again sir, nice build and video!
Some real great ideas and Technics.
Very nice episode, looking forward to the next one.
Thanks Dennis, working on it! Thank you for watching!
Very happy I found this channel. Your videos are very professional.
Thanks! Welcome to my channel :)
Excelente. Genio
A quick tip, remove fresh glue with a damp cloth/rag. Then you don't have to crawl on the floor to remove dripped glue that has dried up. I also think you are clear and concise in your instructions on what and how to do things.
Thanks :D
Excelente trabajo
Gracias! :D
Great video 🎥 !! _ Congratulations! 👍 🇧🇷
Perfect 👍👍
Thanks :D
Mein lieber Schieber. 5 Monate Wartezeit! Ich stand schon kurz vor der Abo-Kündigung.
Aber super Video, klasse Bilder!
Haha danke! Das Studium kam mir ein wenig dazwischen, ich hoffe ich kann jetzt wieder regelmäßiger hochladen. Danke für´s Durchhalten!
Hello Tomas. Greetings from Texas USA. I like your videos very much! I have a question. For the workbench cross-braceing you used a full depth cut to connect cross-braceing with two long internal suports. Why didn't you use half-lap joints for cross-braceing to internal-supports? This would have locked both internal-supports and crosd-braces in place and preventing movement along both sides of workbench. It may not be needed, but you are installing re-enforced clamping holes, so I assume that you will use the bench in many ways. This 'heavy' use may flex table unexpectedly. Overall, I am very happy you include the level of detail in your videos. You give good instruction on hand formed dove-tail joints. And good tips on using a wood chisel correctly. Be sure to make a video on proper way to maintain the hand tools you use. Buying good tools is important, but having clean sharp tools is what makes the work precise. Once again, thank you very much for sharing your craftsmanship with us.
Hello John, thank you for your time and great comment!
The half lap joint is a great idea, to be honest I simply didn´t think about that possibility. It´s a great idea and makes total sense, light-weight-heavy-duty is sort of my goal for the workbench as well as for all my other projects.
Hand tool maintenance is extremely important to me, too. Nothing is nicer than a really sharp chisel. I already filmed and pre-edited a video about sharpening all sorts of things. I will finish and publish it some time before spring.
Once again thank you very much for your comment and great feedback!
Best regards
@@pilotsworkshop4554 I also agree half laps with no glue I love the design however whenever you glue any cross grain situation there is a potential for blowout and cracking when the wood expands and contracts from moisture
Hi, do you have a link to the portable drill guide you can share?
Hi, I bought this one:
www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0043VUCGO/
I took out one of the springs and straigtened the bottom on sandpaper...it´s a cheap one ;)
It´s not the most precise but good for my needs.
Cheers :)
👍🇹🇷
Thanks :)
Niemals Metallspäne mit der flachen (nackten) Hand wegwischen. Meistens merkt man erst,dass man sich einen Span eingefangen hat, wenn es anfängt sich zu entzünden ;-)
Ansonsten weiter so. Sehe es immer wieder gerne, wenn sich junge Menschen für´s Handwerk begeistern können, anstatt 24/7 auf ihr Smartphone zu glotzen. Mein Abo hast du, bin gespannt was noch kommt von dir...
Stimmt :) Danke für´s Abo und willkommen in meiner Werkstatt!
I built a similar unit in an upstairs workshop. Strong enough to hold a Chevrolet. Now that I want to repurpose the room... I find need of a chainsaw to cut this monster apart. It served me well... should have made it to be dismantled.
Oohh damn, but ok, the next one then!
When you put the square on the cross peaces 3 dozen times, what the hell were you doing? Comparing it to a 1 inch lip wouldn't tell you anything. The table looks cool, but you did a lot of things strangely in my opinion.
Hi William, I had a laser level in the room and compared all parts to that. My Workshop floor is not very straight and so the laser was my best chance to get a flat table surface. Maybe its better explained in he second video, when I put the outer frame together.
Thanks for watching!
I think he is part engineer, it’s ok!
