Today I'm showing you how to build what I call the ultimate workbench out of plywood. It is 4x8' and has plenty of room to work. I added on 10 shop storage solutions, including small parts storage, casters, drawers and tool storage.

Very nice setup, April. I found that paraffin works well for wood-on-wood slides. A 1# box of Gulf Wax will last a normal person a lifetime. Another tip is to mark my boxes of screws on several edges so I can easily see which is which, even from an angle. And the last tip is to paint your shop walls, ceiling, and floor pure white. It doubles the amount of apparent light in the shop without any addition of lighting fixtures, and it makes dropped hardware much, much easier to find. You rock, lady!

The lighter colour definitely works, and I'm interested to see the wooden ply wall lining - probs to do with insulation in your cold - but it would also do a lot for reducing noise.

This is where I bumped into your magnificent channel, April. After watching numerous DIY workbench ideas here on YT, combining features from yours into others made the best sense. The hold fast dogs for heavier projects and the side clamp and a dropped chop/miter saw recess and a flip top for my lady's scroll saw and fine art combo bench seems to solve my needs. Your entire library of DIY projects are so well articulated their in my favorites collection. Thanks so much to Cory, and your folks, too. Love to be neighbors!

As you talk through all of your projects it is easier to follow through with each of your projects. I have to admit I don’t have quite the sophistication in my farm shop, but the “thinking through” that you do is greatly appreciated. You are amazing…great work!!

Hello April, I’m Héctor Cardenas from Mexico. In the latest two weeks I had iniciating in the carpentry, I have bought a jig saw, drill bits, a Black + Decker Matrix and many other stuffs including many that Already had to begin. When I was looking for working tables I found this in particular that I found easy to build and is made from play wood. My wife and me are renting in a little home in Mexico expecting to change us in the near future, reason for the size of your table was’nt too practice for me, and I decided to make it exactly same but at a quarter of the size. By the time I wrote this I am working the second day, making some mistakes in calculating dimensions and others, I appreciate so much your tips and will be pending to your work I have begun watching. God Bless you

Hi April - Another great instructional video! Your use of scrap wood to make tool holders is second to none. Just wanted to share a few ideas ... I used peg board on the ends and on my side to maximize storage space. Plastic totes are great for storing items within the workbench as both stackable and to keep sawdust out. Also, A long power strip below the top helped me out too. Upgrades with vises and/or bench dogs would be a welcomed edition to "workbench 2.0". Thanks for being my favorite RU-vid channel. Regards, Chris

Not PTSD, Post Traumatic Growth. There are about 20 soldiers waiting for me to build this. Just to prove something I guess. Wish I could drop pictures of it. Many are going to use it. Thank you again!

Interesting that you have ISOtunes bluetooth ear buds. I use those at work and they are excellent noise-rated ear buds.

I could go on giving others thumbs ups but your workbench is too cool to not leave you a comment of my own.

I’d call it, workshop martial arts!
@chrisflavelle1200

If you wanted to glue and screw the top sheet of plywood to the bench, you could do like my father used to do with his benches. He would build the bench and the cover the top with a sheet of 1/4" Masonite(wallboard) and when that got beyond use, he would just replace the Masonite. Probably a lot cheaper than replacing the sheet of plywood. I was wondering if you were planning on putting the Kraft paper roll on your bench to protect from paint spills and glue messes? Great project. Keep them coming.

Definitely add a sheet of MDF on top. Super smooth and very dense so you can pound on it when necessary, and serve as a sacrificial top when sawing through other materials. Just a spot of glue in each of the corners to hold in place. That way there are no nails or screws to hit when sawing on it.

*As you were flipping that bench over, my eyes immediately went to all the clamps, locked on them in anticipation of the inevitable outcome of them flying off.* 🤭 *I love your Channel.*

There are a lot of good videos out there and a lot of good projects that people are sharing, and this is a good basic workbench that is very functional, so kudos on that, BUT what really stands out the most in this video is your attitude and passion. It's so obvious that you LOVE woodworking, and that you're super proud with your achieved results. It was more fun watching you work and listening to you talk than 90% of videos I've seen from other people. You smile, you jump around, you cheer, and you have fun! GREAT JOB!!

Just in awe! See the bench upgrades video peeking at me in the top right and just refuse to click until I've finished watching all the gems in this one. Oh, oh, I just saw the "Make a Router table" on the right too... Sooo much to watch and learn!

Nice build! One suggestion though, can you move the casters to the inside of the legs so you can't trip on them. Ahh, I re-watched the video and I see they are removable but still would be nice to be able to leave them on if they are on the inside of the leg.

I feel the bench needs a larger over hang for the top. That bench, I'd be hitting stuff with my knees and feet just moving around it. Moving it I'd have stuff jumping and falling out of bins and holders. That's why I have walls. Peg board, peg board everywhere!

I've been in the process of making plans for a woodshop in my basement since I finally got that back room cleared out and have been looking for the perfect workbench idea. I think I've finally found the bench I want to build. Awesome video! Just discovered your channel yesterday and I really like it.👍🏻
