Took a few weeks and minimal costs… EVERYTHING fits!
That’s a real nice workbench, good work!
Thanks!
wow that looks cool.
Thank you!
Absolutely amazing, makes me want to rebuild my bench!
Ty!
I love the vertical drawer.
It’s my favorite part!
Was it all custom plans? If you have any plans or progress pics to share, post em please! It looks great.
Here ya go, and thanks! These were not my plans

Awesome! Thank you!
The castors are a great idea.
It moves so easily! Probably one of the more expensive parts of the build, $20 a wheel lol
Slick! I like the inclusion of the router. Shop vac could do double duty on its dust collection.
What router plate is that? Is there a lift?
Thanks! It was some cheapo Amazon plate. It holds the router upside down and allows you to easily disconnect the router. Yeah, shop vac is great when cutting and sanding!
There were plans for this online somewhere right? I almost made this same one! It’s so good!
Would you have a link to share?
Found it! Started with these:

I don’t. I’ll try to look around tomorrow maybe I saved sometime in a bookmark. I just recall almost building this same thing. May have been from a YouTuber.
Wow very cool! How do you use a fence with that router setup?
There’s a little opening that i can screw the fence into. It’s a little limited, but i built it so the router easily pops out of i need more flexibility.
Nice! Looks like a sweet setup.
That’s sick!
Thanks very much!
It looks really nice :-)
Thank you :)
How’s the height?
It might just be the angle of the image but it looks a bit on the low side for my aging back.
37.5". Naturally, you could adjust the plans accordingly :)
How much did this cost is supplies? Looks great though!
All in all i spent about $450. The casters were like $70 or $80 alone, then two pieces of plywood and all the 2x4s added up. I built this about a year and a half ago when lumber was nutso expensive too.
Very nice bench! My only concern is the drawers are a bit open to letting dust in, I probably would have added some 1/4" plywood around the back/sides of the drawer section if possible
Yeah i kept it basic, and you definitely get some on the side with the saw. My solution is to put bigger things on that side that can get dirty. The other side holds smaller tools and the dust is really minimal over there.
Fair enough man. Looks good! I need to make an outfeed table for my table saw and a miter saw station. Finally moved into a new place with a shop that’s bigger than my old one a few years ago. Had to get rid of most of my benches except my main one when I put my stuff in storage
I was in the same boat. Had a huge shop with a 16 foot table until i moved about 4 years ago. So this table was a way for me to store a lot of my stuff in a much smaller space.
I still miss that big shop :(
Damn, that’s a massive table! Bummer you had to downsize.
I was in à 10’x16’ uninsulated, unpowered shed in Alaska (ran an extension cord and learned which combination of tools would trip the breaker). Now I have a 20’x20’ two car garage (at least, most of it, have a freezer and water heater and HVAC), and it’s fantastic. Ran a bunch more outlets in it on multiple circuits when I bought the house a few months ago, so I never have to worry about tripping the breaker again.
That sounds glorious! I’m sharing a garage with my wife’s car lololol. Better than nothing :)
lol definitely better than nothing. That was my one non-negotiable thing when we were looking for a house. Either a detached shop that was at least 20x20, or a 2 car garage that never had a car parked in it. My wife got her open kitchen, I got my garage :)
Compromised in other areas, and it took us 8 months and 6 offers, but we got it!
Unfortunately i live in Los Angeles where there are like 6 houses on the market at any given time for 10 million people. But we ended up with a pretty good place, can’t complain :)
