Great build, here is something new from another YTer that you might consider for your next bench build ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pvVrVdqA9OE.htmlsi=NH830UumYEeNfDH2

@nguyenthanhtien7939 Год назад

I am a beginner to woodwork, the main test I have with this bundle ru-vid.comUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt is that I think that its hard to settle on a choice of the plan and outline to use as there are a large portion of them there. Nonetheless, I like the simple stride to step directions laid out there.

@MrEtienneboucher 2 года назад

Great build ! Definitely on my to do list for my next shop. But UHMW can stick ! In the ski/snowboard industry we use UHMWPE as Base and Sidewall material, UHMW can stick very well with the right preparation, so instead of using screw to secure it you could do a rough sanding (like 32 grit) on the "bottom" surface, clean it with Isopropyl alcohol and then "Flame Treat" the surface. To Flame Treat, you just need to use a propane torch about 2-3 in from the surface, move at about 1m/5s or about one to two feet per second, you should see a small change in "glossiness" on the surface right before the flame. The surface should not burn or melt in anyway. Glue with a good epoxy and this thing should stay glued forever. If I do something similar I would glue it to a plywood and screw the plywood to the bench from underneath. It would also provide a way to surface it on a cnc router when the surface become beat up.

@mrpink7395 2 года назад

I’ve been using these husky workbenches in my shop, and in my office as a super solid standing desk. I never thought to turn the base into storage. Great idea!

@tomconway6808 2 года назад

Nothing sticks. The rolling tool chests that Husky makes are really nice, but the ability of this workbench to have the adjustable top is a pretty huge feature that tips me toward this DIY approach. Having a place to store stuff, a surface to work at, AND ability to roll one over to a saw for an outfeed table (and potentially a second one for an infeed table) is awesome.

@MoyockScorpion 2 года назад

Interesting and a no non-sense tool improved upon. That is what I do as well because I don't need to have "exotic" wood storage and what not. It is in the shop and does what it needs to. Nice build and it gives me ideas as well. Thanks Jonny! Be safe sir!

Nothing sticks. Goes to show that building everything from scratch is not always the answer. This build has taken a solid concept and improved it's usability 100 fold. Well done!

@Rebecca-zw4pm 2 года назад

Nothing sticks! This is a great idea. I need a multi functional table for the work that I do, and the Plexi top screwed onto the table top would not only keep things clean, it will keep the surface nice and flat. Husky is a great and trusted brand, and customizing one for my use seems like the perfect way to go. Plus adding that vice will allow me to do so much more. Thank you for sharing this.

@carboranadum Год назад

Just finished building a cabinet for under my second table. I haven't found a supplier for the top yet, but the cabinet for my second bench was built to hold small part storage containers. Thanks very much for this video!

@jasonbailey9139 2 года назад

So cool that *nothing sticks* to the top. I know some people don't like buying work tables or toolboxes, but I really think that if you can just make some tweaks like you did to customize it to your needs, it's the way to go. I like the workbenches that I've made, but my Huskey toolbox is likely my best investment in my garage storage.

@jasonm.7358 2 года назад

This is awesome! I’m not sure when UHMW came on the scene, but I do remember when I was a kid (ca. 1980) my dad had a workbench with a white plastic top that looked just like this, stapled to the top. NOTHING would stick to that stuff. I can’t say it was UHMW, but my uncle was a research chemist for Conoco, so it could have been anything. This is fantastic! I wasn’t sure what my workbench was going to look like… but now I’m getting a pretty good idea. :-) THANKS!

Nothing Sticks: I'd never considered this as an option but after watching this I'm sold. Maybe the Husky isn't the brand I go for but the concept has me convinced. I'm working in a very limited space so the versatility of an assembly table that I can raise to a height comfortable for me to work on but move and lower to be an out-feed table is brilliant. I'll do something different in the space underneath but the ideas are starting to swirl around in my head. This is gonna be fun

Have 2 of these! Pro tip, use a hex bit on your drill instead of cranking away forever. 👌🏻

@MHAUSMAN 2 года назад

I’ve done the same thing for my out feed table and my computer desk. The hex bit is quick and easy. I’m thinking of adding a Paulk work bench top that can be placed on top of the Husky adjustable bench and easily removed too.

@joshbonney9624 2 года назад

Awesome video - I am totally going to do this project - maybe without the vice, not sure. Here's an idea I had for mine - Build a frame with legs, attached to the table top itself, that is just a bit higher than the floor to tabletop height when all the way down. Install the casters on these legs instead. This way when you are using the table, the frame is sitting on the ground directly, and when you crank it ALL the way down, you actually pick the legs up off the ground, leaving the table sitting on the casters giving you mobility. Locking casters not necessary. Question: What is the difference between UHMW, HDPE, and ABS for this project? and what impact would each have on the finished product's uses?

@vampricloki Год назад

I had the same idea about the base. only I used two of the smaller bases, already had one that i ruined the top on, so i built a new top that was the full width of my tablesaw. 52"X60". two of these bases with a rod connecting them and a full Plywood top worked wonders for an outfeed and assembly table. but i never knew this type of plastic existed. thanks for clueing me in. now have a full top of 1/8 and I no longer have to sand down the glueup squeeze out every month. after reading up on the plastic I now buy a feet to have on hand and use it in a lot of areas. the recycled verion is about half the cost of the new and still same properties. makes great draw slides for heavy drawes.

I watched this build before I bought my own Husky adjustable height double drawer workbench in white… I love mine, and I’ve been thinking about building a cabinet to go underneath because it has the capability of storing quite a bit I just totally never put two in two together with your build 🤦🏽‍♀️ Anyways if you have a small shop or tiny garage like mine, definitely a lovely adjustable height table/workbench/desk etc. especially for short ppl like myself! Well obviously tall will benefit from it but I love the option of rolling this sucker around to where I need, the ability to add more storage underneath the double drawers and adjusting the height for whatever build I’m doing. Now if Johnny can build a thin, not too tall, dust collection cart with a downdraft top to boot.

@@JonnyBuilds How much play is there in this Husky workbench (62") before and after your modifications? I was wondering if the casters were removed or a better locking caster was used, if I could use two of these spaced out to be 62" wide by 48" for my OneFinity Journeyman CNC, with the addition of the drawers in this video on each table so that I had drawers on the back and the front. The footprint on my Journeyman is 60" wide by ~46 deep. I wondered with the drawers and the torsion box top if it would be stable enough not to shake during CNC operation.

I did something similar but much more heavy duty. I bought a Harbor Freight motorcycle lift and mounted a 4x8 torsion box top on it. The lift is rated for 1000lbs. I covered the box with a sheet of melamine - smooth, flat, easily replaceable, and relatively inexpensive. At the time I built it, I was building patterns and molds for boat parts and some of them can be pretty heavy. The lift allowed me to raise or lower the project for the best height to work on a particular section. Good for my old back. The lift is also on casters so I could move it around the shop as needed. I've got $5-600 in a lift table that would cost many thousands to buy from one of those industrial table companies.

@JonnyBuilds 2 года назад

That’s a fantastic idea!

@OneTequilaTwoTequila 2 года назад

That's hilarious that you equate that Harbor Freight motorcycle lift to "much more heavy-duty." That thing is a flimsy piece of junk. Adding a 4x8 top to that would make it unstable for serious work.

@rogermccaslin5963 2 года назад

@@OneTequilaTwoTequila "More heavy duty" is a relative term. Compared to the table in the video, it is definitely more heavy duty. I've used it to take a 350 lb outboard, stacks of plywood and melamine, etc out of the back of my truck. It works for me. I guess you know better than me how something I built and you've never seen is apparently junk.
