I built this workbench quite a while back, I’d say 4 years or so. It has served me very well and has gotten quite a bit of use. The top is a piece of hard board that is replaceable but has turned out to be quite tough and has needed replacing as of yet.
I did make a video on it and I posted it as a video way back when and I figured I would like it to show up in my Projects to, since after all it is a project.

Those pocket screws make it very stout. Nice build

Work benches like to be simple and that one looks good and functional. Great job!
I put one on my projects page myself. Mainly because of what I had to work with, it’s built some heavier.

Nice job!
I probably would have built the legs a bit longer so you wouldn’t have to extend the levelers so much. No wobble with the levelers out that far?

Thanks guys!
Nite, yea that’s ones thing I’d change about the bench but I guess I wasn’t thinking clearly or something. But not, surprisingly it’s pretty darn stable. I guess I got lucky.
