  1. Work Table

    When I first started to build my Shop (it's not a garage, it's a Shop) the only bench I had was a 3'x6' folding table. It worked great for a couple of years. After looking through woodworking magazines for a couple of years, I decided to build a workbench. For me, simple is best. I also...
  2. Shopmade Clamp and Assembly Worktable

    I came up with this very unique and satisfying version of a clamp worktable, made right here in my shop, using material from my sheet goods scrap pile. I designed it so I could use my collection of ordinary and fast action vise clamps meant to be used at the drill press. As shown, a 30" X 36"...
  3. Folding Portable Workbench

    I don't have room because i don't have a shop or an extra room to work on my projects, I have to store my saws and everything in the front room and when i work on a project i take all the tools I'm going to need outside in the yard and when I'm done i have to pack it all up and bring it back...
  4. High Desk

    Spanish cedar with laminate top and drawer detail, designed for a watercolor painter who likes to work standing up.
  5. Mobile worktable with shop-made drawer glides and flip-up wing

    This worktable has retractable casters that allow it to be mobile when necessary, and completely immobile (and sturdy) at other times. It's based on a design I saw on the New Yankee Workshop but it has the following design modifications: it's taller (40"), it's longer (8 feet), it has a flip-up...
  6. Wood & Lumber
    I've been thinking about getting lumber from a real mill as my skills are improving and HD stuff pretty much stinks for the inflated price. Went into a lumber place to today to look around and found all of this for 65! It was two trips with the 4Runner and even though some was labeled as...
  7. Wood & Lumber
    I've been avoiding building a woodworking table for several reasons 1) I don't have a pickup so large sheet goods would be tough to transport, and 2) I have other smaller projects I'd prefer to work on instead. I bought a Kreg Mobile Project Center, and while it's a nice bit of kit, it's...
  8. Joinery
    OK, Next topic… First, realize I'm building a work table here, not an heirloom workbench. But, for the sake of conversation. I say it's not necessary to acclimate wood before laminating. I'm making a solid work table to mount a scroll saw, a bench grinder, and a belt sander. After running...

    The Base Just before I went to buy that stuff for my daughters toddler bed, I was thumbing through this magazine I bought a couple years ago. One of those "greatest projects" magazines you see at the register at Lowes or Home Depot. Anyway, I saw a plan for a work table I thought was pretty...

    Rolling worktable design As I said previously, an incredibly generous guy is giving me his cabinet saw in return for me building him a mobile worktable. Due to his vertigo, he needs a fairly high work surface. I had him hold out his hands at the desired height and measured. It was 44" so that's...

    Aches, pains and pallet wood, oh my! Following its recent successful creation, I opted to give Franken-Rack free rein to terrorize the domain. It was my hope that it would bring home the finest lumber in all the land. Instead, it brought me pallet and crate wood. Several times I have berated...

    Tool-pulling Long Wall Side Table Hello guys. I brought to my shop new machine and deficite of place become more perceptible. I was thinking about conception of my workspace and understand I was wrong with this table. I've came to idea that it is absolutely useless as worktable. All...
  13. Hand Tools
    Hey guys, I just received some fine and extra fine Iwasaki rasps for my birthday and I am excited to put them to work. I just ran out to the garage to give them a whirl and they are super sharp. So sharp in fact that they felt a little bizarre cutting into the wood. So, I was wondering if any...
