This is Part 2 of my multi-video series showing you how I made my Paulk Workbench! This workbench was designed by Rob Paulk who has a ton of experience with contracting and woodworking, and his design represents his knowledge of both great utility and mobility. The two-part top allows it to fit in a van or a truck, and makes it easy to move around the shop or take on site. It’s also incredibly sturdy! I documented my entire build and I’m excited to bring you this comprehensive, instructional, multi-part video series on how to make it! I hope it helps you as you make your Paulk Workbench or a variation that fits your needs.
Part 2 of this multi-video series focuses on the main torsion box body, top and bottom of the workbench/assembly table. (You can learn more and download the plans on the Ron Paulk Website here: www.paulkhomes.com)
//Part 1 of this multi-video series focuses on the main cuts for the workbench/assembly table and how to make the saw horses. View it here: • Building the Paulk Wor...

Not only is this a really well made "easy listening" kind of video, it was super enjoyable! Narration was pleasant and very well paced. Shots progressed very sensibly. Music was very well selected and appropriate (not overly noisy or overpowering). I followed the whole build and it was only half-way into the second video that I realized how long I've been watching! Great job and a lovely workbench! .

New to woodworking; have watched dozens of workbench videos; they are way over my head/experience level. Although the Ron Paulk workbench is also way above my experience level, it was a pleasure watching the video. With total respect for all, I could relate to your video better than the professional (with decades of experience) woodworker videos. Quite frankly, I'm not smart enough as a DIY hobbyist nor do I have the time and resources to invest in the outstanding tools I see on most workbench building videos. Still, I'll continue researching video's and the internet for affordable, simple workbench plans I can handle as a novice! Appreciate your enthusiasm and simple, straightforward approach to woodworking. Jim in Georgia

I built a 1" form around mine so they were locked in and I didn't have to fuss with clamps and I didn't want to screw through them. Probably being a little OCD but been treating everything like I'm building some high end furniture rather then a workbench lol I know it will get worked to death and start getting beat up but right now I'm trying to make it as perfect as possible lol

@denisfernandes5753 4 года назад

Awesome video with super clear instruction and totally helped clarify a lot for me.I bought Ron Paulks plans but really appreciate the video. Im building my self a Paulk workbench but my local home center didn't have the size right pipe . Just wondering if 4 foot, 3/4 inch pipe would suffice vs the 6 foot 1 inch. I have the same dewalt jobsite saw you have and was curious if the weight of the saw/ ever tipped the bench?

@diywithandrew 4 года назад

Thanks Denis! That is EXACTLY why I made this video. Great question. I have not had any bend with my table saw and stand and definitely not even close to tipping the workbench. Although i would hesitate on using 4' simply because it won't reach in as far into the torsion box allowing it to go through the 3rd support which will reduce the integrity of being able to hold the pipe in place. However I can't be sure until it's tried!

@denisfernandes5753 4 года назад

@kevincriswell7533 4 года назад

Hey Andrew, nice video, I just caught it. I built my Paulk bench about four years ago. Also bought the plans and built the total station. The last several videos Ron has made featured some designs I gave him. Check them out if you get a chance. I built my first bench totally my hand, as you have here. One thing I did differently; for the template to rout all the large holes, I simply extended the “ears” on each end which left plenty of room for the clamps. I then nailed blocks in the bottom side so that it placed the object peace center line.

@diywithandrew 4 года назад

Great video brother..came out great. I have my tops,bottoms, spreaders and horses cut,routed and sanded. I still have to drill my dog holes but probably jumping back on it tomorrow. I wasn't gonna do the table saw thing bc I have the Bosch on gravity stand but after watching what you did I'm gonna build the box anyway just incase I decide to drop it on. Your box was a awesome addition..thanks for sharing! Quick question..with the pocket holes for bench assembly..which screws did you use? I was planning on the 1" bc it's 1/2" to 1/2" but just wanted to make sure that's what others are doing? Am I correct with the use of 1" kreg screws or did you happen to use 1.25" screws? Thanks again for the videos..very well made. Have a goodnight and stay safe.

@diywithandrew 4 года назад

Thanks, Bill! Good to hear you are coming along. I love the Bosch gravity! But yea, I think that is a good call just in case to build the box. I've got a simple plan on my website here that might help, gumroad.com/l/tablesawmount .. I ended up using 1.5" screws and wood glue. The screws are essentially there to hold it until that glue dries. Hope that helps! Thanks again and stay safe as well.

Hey man! Great question. I bought it from Lee Valley online. I have the link below in the notes on the Part 1 Video in the series.

@xagur8 4 года назад

Great video Andrew! Thanks for the posting. I'm about to assemble mine. I've seen several comments and suggestions about the template routing and I think I have the perfect solution. What I did was set the template (or the blank to be routed) on a larger piece of scrap plywood, then screw strips of 3"4 scrap wood next to the template (or blank) so it can't move. Then put the blank on bottom and the template on top inside the screwed down strips. That will hold them in place while you route, and won't be in the way of the router base because the two pieces of 1/2" ply stacked are taller than the holder strips. Boom! Easy and FAST. And most importantly accurate.

@diywithandrew 4 года назад

Thanks! Also thank you for taking time to share the knowledge you have and what your plan is. That is a great idea. Please send me your finished project via email or social media as I'd love to see it!

@christopherkellett7579 4 года назад

Great vid! suggestion: maybe screwing the template to the workpiece like you did with sawhorse template would've been quicker and involve less movement, seeing as though the router work could be down in just one pass.

@diywithandrew 4 года назад

Thank you!! And great advice. Thanks!

@bigbawls81 2 года назад

Or possibly using painters tape and CA glue. That way no screw holes to fill.

@brento4148 Год назад

Just a quick one Andrew, you should run the rounded edge of your router base against your guide, if you rotate it at all it won't matter, the plane is identical. If you hiccup slightly on the straight edge you'll screw your line up immediately. That's what the large round edge is for.

@diywithandrew Год назад

Thanks for the tip!

@MarkSWilliams27 7 месяцев назад

Just fasten the template with two small brads/finish nails. Then use a stiff putty knife to pull up the template. Easy!

I like the dewalt chop saw you are using with the light on the guard. Is that stock or a modification?

@donmeyers3090 5 лет назад

Great video!! I'm in the process right now of building mine. Have it all cut out and at the assembly step. One thing I did NOT seem to find on the plans was the length of the pocket hole screws. Can you tell me what you used? Thanks!!

@diywithandrew 5 лет назад

Thank you Don! Glad to hear you are making yours happen. Since you are attaching 1/2" plywood to 1/2" plywood, the jig setting is 1/2" and the screw length is 1". Just use a low setting in the drill so that you don't go through the top. Just enough to hold the boards together while the glue sets. Hope that helps!

@donmeyers3090 5 лет назад

@@diywithandrew Great! Thanks. Did you have another video you haven't uploaded yet? I was hoping for some specs on your table saw mount. As you know, the mounts in his plans were for a different saw that mounted higher up on the saw. I have the DWE7480 (same size as your DW745). So, I knew I had to modify the mounts. Just couldn't decide on the best way. Now that I saw your mount, I may have to go with a drop mount box as well. Either that, or I was thinking of just making a simple rolling cart and butting it up to the bench. That would probably save some work, IMO compared to the pipe mounts, as well as leave more room inside the bench frame. Anyhow....wondering if you had a video on the mount somewhere?

Very nicely done, Andrew. May I add a production suggestion? I spent 47 years in radio and TV, so I know a thing or two about audio levels, so please believe me when I tell you that you do not have to crank your music up so much when you're not talking. (I get the distinct impression that you were advised to make all of your levels 100% on your VU meter all the time.) Your music levels are perfect when you're talking, but I suggest you pot them up by only 10 or 20% when you're not talking.

Use double stick tape to hold template!

@diywithandrew 4 года назад

Hi Marty. Yes. It is very strong due to the torsion box design and glue up. If I remember right, I jump on it at the end of this video and it doesn't even move. What I love about the design is that the boxes are light for when they need to be transported but also super strong and stable.

Yanno, if you'd just cut one the two center holes from the LONG side first, then stuck a couple of the offcuts under each side and in the middle to both keep it level and give the clamps something to bite on without inducing flexion, you could have just clamped TWO of the short ones side by side beneath said long one and routed them without obstruction...

Interesting that the holes where cut away, then the pole supports where added back. Shows bad design, lack of for thought, changes integrity of each panel too. Glad the Vid described the torsion box though.

@diywithandrew 2 года назад

I don’t agree. Ron Paulk designed this very well and did not lack for thought. Certainly there are many different ways to design this for use and you are entitled to your opinion. I have used this for over 3 years and there has been no integrity failure as the pole supports spread out the weight along the inside.

_THICKNESS_ is a little more than 1/2". Width appears more like 7-8".

@diywithandrew 3 года назад

It's 1/2 inch plywood.

I don't get it. That looks like a good design for scraping your knuckles when reaching for tools under the work surface. It also looks like a good place to accumulate loose screws, and nails, and sanding dust, and pencils, and...

Different strokes for different folks! Probably 10,000 workbenches to choose from on this great earth.

Using a Dewalt Job Site to get "accuracy" is sort of cringe, but I love it for work-site benches.

@diywithandrew 2 месяца назад

I think DeWalt allows for as much accuracy as possible with a job site saw. I’m happy with it

I built one of these years back when they were popular. Waste of plywood and money. I built a conventional table with 5 inch casters and never looked back.

@diywithandrew 4 года назад

Nice. That's the thing about this great planet. Different opinions, needs and options.

@rahGrebelsoulsound 4 года назад

You should've just used screws with the template.

@diywithandrew 4 года назад

Yep. Just didn't want the holes but in hindsight it would not have been a big deal.

@web3036 4 года назад

It should be called building a welding table out of wood, that's all it is.

@diywithandrew 4 года назад

Or a "workbench". Lol

Great videos but I can do without the annoying music. At least lower the music volume.

@diywithandrew 4 года назад

Totally agree in hindsight. I’ve removed it from my other latest videos.

@aurafilms773 4 года назад

Good job man, nice work ! But the music ... ouch

@diywithandrew 4 года назад

Thanks! Haha, yea my latest videos don't have the tunes.

@docrw 3 года назад

No music would help, it's just NOT useful for people trying to hear you

@diywithandrew 3 года назад

Thanks for the feedback! I am about to release non music versions.

@donaldmazier5044 4 года назад

don t like the bench

@diywithandrew 4 года назад

That's the good thing about the earth. There are a LOT of other great options on it.

You’re just copycating!

@diywithandrew 3 года назад

Are you serious? I’m abundantly clear where I found this design and proud to build and share Ron’s design with others.

And now it's just a matter of ignoring the number of times this guy says 'now it's just a matter'. An over produced video with a hyperactive voice-over. Quite wearing to watch. Not recommended.

@diywithandrew 4 года назад

It was "just a matter" of time before I saw your hyperactive comment. This comment was quite wearing to read. Not recommended.
