Great setup, Im lucky eough that my wife’s SUV doesnt fit in my toyots sixed garage so it is a full time shop. I like the fold up table design but might consider adding fold down legs is your going to be beating on it at all.
ANd Congrats on the new one coming

Nice job. However I see two problems:

1) You won’t be able to clutter up your work bench, and who has a clean workbench? This is unheard of and I’m sure you are violating some workshop rule.

2) I don’t see space for the toys that you WILL have! Big wheels, bicycles, wagons, balls…

I agree with the fold down leg idea, or a couple of 4×4s that you can quickly attach/remove.

Oh, and build something immediately for your child (like a wooden pull toy).

Awfully clean for a workshop. Looks more like a shop than a “work” shop.

Here is my leg solution to a fold up table. The legs are PVC. There is an unseen 2×4 attached underneath the table with holes that receive the legs. The 2×4 on the floor with corresponding holes really makes it rigid. The legs and the floor 2×4 store neatly behind the table when folded down. Also shown is a fold down bench from plans I found on line for five bucks.These are old pics. I’ve since added a lot of other equipment but it all still fits in my 18’ x 20” shop (yes 20 INCHES) and leaves room for both cars.

Transition you see problem, I see solution! Our friend Stgq has developed the first auto-cleaning bench!!

Thanks for all the comments and Ideas, I do intend on adding some fold down legs and appreciate the good ideas. @Dusty, that fold down bench is awesome.
