The Woodshop Shed

new work surface

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


I wanted a work surface that would remain stabile, flat and be easy to move around. I used MDF for the top and the shelf and the rest is 3/4” plywood. No glue except for the legs. The frame for the top is attached with biscuits and pocket hole screws. The legs and stretchers are bolted together with carriage bolts. I added strips at each end under the bench to support the bench on the casters. The front of the bench is double thickness 3/4” ply because that is where I wanted to add a face vise and be able to use holdfasts or clamps there also. The bench dimensions are 38” high, 32” wide, and 60” long. With the addition of 4” casters, the bench is easily moved and allows me to take it outside onto the workshop deck when I need it out there.
