A quick look at how I adapted the Harbor Freight Windsor Workbench. 

Thank you for sharing. Great update Stan. A General 52" top/bottom toolbox and this Windsor bench are on my list. Thanks, always learning something new there in the shop. Gary

I also modified my Harbor Freight Windsor workbench: 1. The out-of-the-box drawer location means any dust and debris on the bench top can drop through the dog holes directly into the top two drawers and their contents, so I switched the position of the full shelf and the 4 drawers; drawers at the bottom of the bench with the full shelf above them and directly below the bench top. I only needed to create two shelf support braces on the long side of the shelf. 2. The out-of-the-box bench top thickness is NOT what it appears, so I screwed/glued a cut-to-fit 1"thick sheet of plywood to the bottom of the table top, and extended the dog holes down through that. It needed only small modification to accommodate the vice mechanism. 3. The out-of-the-box drawer slides don't open the drawers fully. I swapped then for full extension slides. 4. I added locking casters to all four leg corners.

Very cool, thanks for sharing. All in all, this bench is actually pretty stable.

Good practice, scraping after the project. I use a roll of paper, but the scraper approach seems very handy. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent! Thank you for sharing!

I would love to see more details an exactly how you sured up the work bench. It looks great.

That's a great idea to go over your bench top with a scraper.

It's plenty stable with your beefing it up and adding mass so gravity holds it down well. I think it's perfectly acceptable for the price. It's not like the coffee was sloshing out of the cup. I used to live in a house that had 2 X 6 floor joists on 24" centers. In that place the floor was like a trampoline & the coffee would've moved more than that if the cat trotted by.

Very nice 👌 👍

Put mine together a week ago. First time I went to use the clamp on the end POP! The seem split between end of table and screwed on trim. Didn't even have much torque on clamp. Made crack big enough to fit dime in. Overall descent table though.

Thanks guy

Great vid! Could you place a 5.5 vice on this?

set your coffee on the other bench. Problem solved!

Bought this bench last weekend, took 3 hours to assemble. My thoughts: 1. For 200 bucks, it's a lot of workbench. 2. It needs cross bracing to prevent twisting when you're working with handtools on it at either end. 3. The newer models seem to have longer draw pulls, I saw it was a minus point in earlier versions, but mine roll all the way out. 4. The piece of wood the vise counter pressure is applied from is too thin and if wrenched down, will begin to crack fairly easily. 5. Retractable casters are a great addition. Just don't keep nice things on the top when you're using them.
