That is smart to add the structural 2 x 4s at the end and therefore not to rely on the squareness of the original workbench. Trying to fit a drawer perfectly between my vertical uprights would be nightmare. Great video!
I really like that the videos are not filled with a lot of unnecessary dialogue. It is direct and to the point, which I really appreciate. So many DIY videos are filled with unwanted chit chat which really detracts from the projects. I also like the fast motion which is slow enough to see what's happening. Great job!
This is a pretty solid little workbench. While once you figure out how it comes together, it is physically Easy to assemble ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh by yourself. But the diagrams explaining the steps are really pretty bad. I could not get the handle pins in all the way despite multiple attempts, so I just used a screw I had on hand for the 2nd handle. I could not get the first pin in further or pull it back out. You are supposed to hammer it in, but I had no leverage and the handle is plastic and I did not want to risk breaking it. I will get a lot of use out of the bench because of the convenient size and height. It does fold up nicely for storage. They even explain how to fold it so you don't get pinched...that is important!
If you notice pocket holes in the drawer frames for no reason, it's because I had the jig set incorrectly and drilled them too deep. So instead I just used glue and pin nails. -RJK
Good plywood here in the states at the box stores, but we pay for it. I think the last time I went to pick up a 8x4 of 3/4" ply it was around $50 for the good stuff.
Love this easy-to-build bench ! I used his ideas on my workbench frame. But there is one minor drawback to adding these drawers the way that he did. You loose the overhang on the front side, that you could have used for clamping ! You add some convenience and loose some convenience ! Allways a trade-off I guess. 😞
How wide and how long is your work table? I made last year but I’m going to make a bigger one in a few weeks. I’m looking into trying to incorporate some drawers.
I made my benches almost exactly the same. Some things I don’t like about it is that I can’t use my smaller clamps on the edge, and I bump my shin on the bottom beam holding the shelf. If anyone has a good looking solution I love to see it

Wow. No annoying music, and no talking to slow things down. Great job !!

So clever bro

But how fast is slow enough?
Dittos from my end.
You could have stopped after your first sentence.
Made the workbench last week. Just made the drawers today!
Excellent!
Turned out Great…….
I'm here for the high-speed sounds, and to learn...

Fantastic solution and upgrade to the workbench! I'm planning something similar for my CNC table and this video was very helpful!
Nice! I've been watching all your CNC vids, I bought a Shapeoko Pro recently as well.
Nice addition!
Love to see your video 👍👍👍👍
Excelente!
great vid
Thanks for the FF, and for not saying a word! Too many vids out there with guys that just want to hear themselves talk.
Just purchased the plans for the table and drawers! Great tutorial and straightforward design. Really appreciate you. Definitely got a new subscriber.
GREAT JOB ON THE BENCH .THANK YOU .FROM DOUG
I love it
I so love this project
its a very nice
If you notice pocket holes in the drawer frames for no reason, it's because I had the jig set incorrectly and drilled them too deep. So instead I just used glue and pin nails.

Came here to find this out^
Another mystery solved, 🙂
How have the pocket holes in the outer frame which you screwed towards the edge instead of towards the center been holding up?
Awesome!
I'm gonna add that soon!
great work, really enjoyed watching it. this workbench is going to be awesome!
Se mira genial, yo tengo que hacer un update a mi mesa de trabajo
Damn, UA-cam has such great plywood. Can't get anything like that in Sweden

@@kristak9725 I asked at the local hardwarestore. They could order some in, starting at about 150 bucks per sheet D:
No bull, just joinery 👍🏻
I definitely would have routed a recess for the drawer bottoms to fit into the sides so you could put a little weight inside.
Would be nice to have an explanation of what he is doing and the size of the cuts
Apik men kang
My lord your fingers get close to that blade lol
Nice work. Pls can you add the measurements?
Love this easy-to-build bench !

For that reason I left 4 inch space & still manage to built two 5 inch high drawers from bottom of the 2×4 top support.
Noice
What is the best way to add a shelf to the bottom?
How do you space drawers for slides? The width seems important. Last time mine would jam up o.O
good question mine jammed
Really great video...but am I the only person that leaves my bench top overlapping by an inch and a half for clamping purposes?

Can you come to my house New Jersey and Bill some stuff for me because I could never do that fun watching
Hi there I don't know if any one has asked this, but are you able to add metric sizing to your plans?
That would be great. I'd definitely buy plans in metric.

Hey brother what kind of table saw do you reccomend?
Depending on price range either the Dewalt job site saw, the Rigid R4520, or a Sawstop.
What screws did you use in the pockets?
What happened to your RYOBI impact drill? did it give out?
Nope, still got it.
Not enough pins imo
Cant learn how to do it if you dont explain how to do it
