Fantastic video. No bullshit, no overdone intro, no music, no boring narrative, and a perfect ending.

[AlexRodriguez-dojx]

Love the simplicity of this video. Straight to the point. Well edited. No filler commentary. Good bullet points. Just a plain saw and drill nothing fancy. Very easy to follow.

Thank you very much. You made the table in a simple and easy way for beginners. Most of the carpenters on YouTube do it in a complicated way and with tools that are not available to the beginner. Thank you from the heart

[MrJHart]

Its nice to see a workbench build that doesn't require a pocket hole jig, planer, and a bunch of workworking tools.

At half the size, it took me almost half a day to build mine, and I'm glad I read some of the comments first, so I left an overhang for the top on three sides. Thanks for this good idea.

[VDIESEL]

You kept this simple and straight forward. On a level most of us can relate to. No Planing, No Joining or other equipment, other than the basics. Thank you.

Clever ending. I love the combo of demonstrating the build quickly and linking to the PDF plans. It's unique and helpful. So many on here gab on and on forever with fancy intros, music, etc. I prefer no BS

[Samps]

thank God someone who doesnt insist on showing us loud sanding, table saw, blah blah, with tools most of us dont have, just get on with it already!! Thank you just what I like to see, straight to the point no nonsense

A small tip, if I may. When cutting the top, leave a 1" overhang on the front. That way it's easy to dust off as you'll have a little lip to put a dustpan under. It is also nice to have an overhang for clamping lumber with a quick-grip clamp. Your "L" shaped legs are a neat idea. Nice vid!

Ok, well, my husband and I made your 1 hour table. Pattern is easy if you follow your directions but we decided to add the drawers as in your other video. We made it longer and wider and put 3 large drawers on each side. Took more than two weeks. Love it! Thanks for the ideas!

I’m just starting to get into woodworking and used this video as the inspiration to build my own worktable, but made a few minor adjustments. For the legs, instead of using 28-1/8” 2x4’s, I used 4x4’s cut to 30”. The rest of the frame is 2x4’s cut 71” wide by 34” deep. For the top, I had a sheet of 1” plywood left over from my bathroom remodel several years ago, so I cut that down to size and used it. It’s attached to the frame from underneath using twenty 3x3” metal brackets. With the casters, it’s the same height as my table saw. It’s big and heavy but rock solid, and overall I’m very pleased with how it turned out. Thanks.

Perfect. Thanks for not making this so complicated. This is the best tutorial I have seen!

Nice video, nice bench. No elevator music, just some angry turkeys 🦃

[PewPew]

New to woodworking and needed an out feed table and workbench. Not counting shopping for lumber actual buildout took 1.5 hours. Simple video easy to follow straight to the point.

Mr. Keller:

At first, after buying your plans, I thought the leg length was too short for my height (6'2") but after assembling, the bench will be perfect for me after adding the casters. It's a great bench for the $$$ and simplicity of building it. Thanks a million. (Wait. Thanks $999, 999, 998 worth!)

LOVE THIS! Too many workbench videos are too complicated and they to make a piece of furniture. THIS IS A WORKBENCH! This is how I build them. BUT my first ones were built like this, my subsequent ones left the plywood surface overhang by about 4 inches so a hand clamp can grab the edge and hold down parts.

[donwatson]

I just did this build yesterday. Made a couple size mods for my needs, but otherwise the same. I am really happy with how it turned out. Thanks for the inspiration and motivation.

[TechiesUnofficial]

You and your power drill/driver make it look so easy.

[MrKongatthegates]

Slick. Clean looking bench and no screwing around.

[kevinotoole]

Like it 👍🏻

I’m a plasterer and timber framer by trade and this is exactly how I build stuff. From studwalls, partitions, cupboards, decking, pergola’s even a garden shed 🤣 no nonsense just the right sized timber and some good straight of course screws 😃
