Great!
The plan needs a couple of measurement tweeks between diagram and explanations but its very easy to follow. Very good use of materials with minimal waste. I expanded the top to 72" from 60" very easity to fit my space.
Although I haven’t started the build yet, it looks like this workbench will be just what I need for an assembly table and out feed table for my table saw.
Thomas,
I love the very detailed plans. I live in Texas and it’s been pretty hot so I haven’t had the will power to get started.
Thanks.

I began my woodworking career last summer so I’m still a total novice. Plans were great and the detail video is super helpful too. It was a 2-day build for me: day 1 cut everything and glue to big stuff, day 2 assemble everything. Simple enough for my skill level that my mistakes didn’t end up ruining the table. It pairs extremely well with my table saw folding table. Now I have a great setup for half the garage and everything stores away well in the corner so we can still fit both cars when these are stored away. Thanks Thomas!
