    Another quick tip, make your top bigger than the frame/Base, if you leave a 2" over hang on the front and if you want both ends, it leaves you space to use g claps to clamp stuff to the bench to work on it easier.

      @@BIZARBIES it'd look ugly, but you could always secure some 2x4's onto the top of the bench. Bolts or fasteners would work. Just make sure you don't strike the previous screws that were drilled.

    I love this. I watched another video claiming to advise us how to do the same thing. He then went on to build a table in a premium workshop with a huge table saw, a Dewalt conveyor/planer and all sorts of other equipment in a huge workshop. Yours seems great and totally doable! Thank you.

      Imperial is better for folks who aren't good at maths. It's easier to work in powers of 2 and superfactorial numbers like 12 in your head if you're not good at math. Say you wanted do divide a 1m board in three. That's 33.3 recurring CM. Say yo want to divide a 1 foot board in three. That's 4 inches.
      I'm actually from the UK, and prefer to work in metric. But it's unfair to dismiss imperial as being useless when there are actual real benefits.

    Thanks for the tutorial. I made the bench and it cost me about $50. I had the hardware store make the cuts for me for just a couple of dollars, so that saved time. The corner clamp would have helped immensely. It was a little tricky getting those 2x4s screwed together without a clamp or a helper, but I figured it out. I put a little soap on the screws, which helped to drive them in easily and without splitting the wood.
    The biggest obstacle was imperfect cuts and imperfect 2x4s. It doesn't take much to be off to have things not line up perfectly, or if the wood is even slightly twisted, to get some wonky corners and legs. I had to do a little filing and sanding to get it right, but it's a garage piece, not a museum piece. I am an extreme novice when it comes to this kind of stuff, so it took me four hours instead of one, but that's me.
    Besides the clamp, a good work bench would have helped me make this work bench.

    @just-dl 7 років тому +3

    Love it! for extra rigidity on the top, you can layer up 2, 3 or more sheets of ply (laminated) to give a seriously massive top. The one I'm planning will have 4 layers of 3/4" (I think that's 20mm in French...feel free to check my math), for a 3" (80-90mm?) thick top. I do plan to bang on it with enthusiasm, so 2 layers is probably sufficient. 3 is overkill. 4 is more my style! :-)

    If you need a smooth surface, free of dents and scratches to work on; just nail on a sheet of plywood on top of your existing tabletop. As the plywood experiences regular wear and tear, you can pop the nails off and put a new sheet so you don't have to make a new bench every time, especially as pine can be quite soft.

    Sometimes it's also nice to have the table top overhang the edge of the frame, that way you can use c-clamps and the like along the edge of the bench without having to fit them around the frame.

    I'd stick the front legs to the OUTSIDE of the front part.
    Why?
    If you use chunky wood (I'm using 45x95mm) you get a really nice lip to clap stuff on when you need to. I got a vice too, but some day you just need to clamp it to the workbench and small clamps are dirt cheap compared to massive ones.

    "these pieces are already cut to length at 1.2 meters and they're 30-mil by 90-mil. Lay out the 1200-millimeter lengths, then mark and square off two more pieces at 540-mil..." I DON'T UNDERSTAND THESE WORDS WHAT IS THIS STRANGE LANGUAGE????

      Lol.... he built it using metric measurements. Most of the world uses metric measurements not SAE measurements. Meters, centimeters, millimeter... like yards and inches and fractions of an inch. The size measurements don't mater really as long as you follow the basic pattern for construction. Just make sure the measurements match for the base and top.

    Gave this a go myself, made it a 90x30 frame and put a long 40cm-wide sheet on it, and cut the end so that there would be an overhang of about 5cm each side for clamping. I used a height of about 82cm, which in retrospect is pretty tall for such a narrow table, so it's not the most stable of things but it works! Thanks for the video. :)

      Take every measurement and divide it by 25.4 and you have inches :) (if the measurement is in centimeters, just divide by 2.54)

      Actually, just BUY a metric tape measure. Stanley (and Lufkin) do make tape measures that are both SAE and metric. I used to work as an installer for a kitchen cabinet company that imported their products from Germany. All the plans and components were metric. Skip the metric to SAE conversion and just use metric measuring tools. It's the simplest method. It will also help you develop a feel for estimating metric distances. Metric is also easier to subtract and add. Having said that, millimeters do take some getting used to since they are smaller than sixteenths and are harder for me to see individually.

      @splewy 10 років тому +17

      Yeah the metric system is fairly common in a lot of things here in the US, but carpentry is one of the few things were the English system is used exclusively. I'm not saying metric is bad (it actually makes more sense, as fractions of inches gets confusing). It just seems so odd as an American to see a carpentry video that doesn't use inches.

    • @Monstretundersengen
      @Monstretundersengen 10 років тому +22

      splewy That's how we feel when americans use imperial units. :) '5/16" socket onto a 3/4" ratchet' and so on.... I don't know wether that's telling me to cut my socket into bits and put it on the world's tiniest ratchet or if they are actual sizes, or pizzas...

    • @splewy
      @splewy 10 років тому +13

      Monstretundersengen Lol, we hardly use imperial sized sockets on anything anymore, it's almost all millimeters. Oddly though, we still us imperial units for the size of the ratchet itself, so we'll have a 12mm socket on a 3/8" drive. Yeah, it's weird.
