I don’t even have this model but this has to be the go-to instructional video for assembling the B&D workmate! Congratulations on your well organised, step-by-step, clarity of explanation. Well done, Dr.M 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️
No Annoying music No Annoying gimmicks just simple very easy to follow instructions. Thank you for taking the time to make this video for everyone. It took me 10 minutes to build the workbench following your video.
Well I have to say, WAY TO GO GIRL. Having just purchased a Workmate and looking for help in assembling it, your video was absolutely brilliant. No messing, no shouting the usual “Hey what’s up everyone” crap, trying to have their 15 minutes of fame nonsense. Just clear, calm instructions that helped me no end. Thank you so much for this. 👍
Amazing- took one look at the instructions in the box and immediately went on RU-vid to find someone like you who has already done it 😊 great video - thank you five stars 🌟
Found this a great help. Refurbing my old workmate 30yrs old at least. Strip to bare metal to paint. Vice adjusters need be removed. Thought handles were tiny allen key, but now know they pins, will tap out and finish the painting. Thanks.
Thanks - this is really clear, straightforward and so helpful. I really appreciate it as was going a bit mad trying to work it out from the Black and Decker instruction sheet for this!
Very helpful and clearly presented - great! My only suggestion would be to hold something heavy, like a lump hammer, on the opposite side of the handle to where the pin is being hit. The resistance makes it easier to drive the pin in...plus avoids the risk of bending the threaded shaft itself.
Thank you! By the handles, do you mean the pins that fit through them? As we say in engineering, the only thing you can do is whack them with a hammer. They are an interference-fit.
The provided instructions are a disgrace. This video saved it going back in the box. You really need something like a press for the pons in the handles!
They are a disgrace! The pins are the trickiest bit. A commenter above came up with a good suggestion that would emulate a press - holding something heavy on the opposite side of the handle where the pin is being hit.
