@sannitig This would be considered a light duty workbench. To be considered a heavy duty workbench, it would need a frame created out of a ridgid wood (Maple, Beech, SYP), it would need a laminated top a couple inches thick, and weigh considerably more. You don't want the bench to bounce and rack/slide easily.
The purpose of the work bench pictured in this video is to be simple to build, where a heavy duty bench will take you exponentially longer to build and cost much more.

@HomeAdditionPlus Ok so my main area of concern for sturdyness is at the legs, not the butt joints of the table top frame, correct?

I really enjoy your videos. I'm 47 years old but i want to be like you (talented) when i grow up :)

muito bom este video

u should get a pocket hole jig. it will make your joints much stronger and straighter

Excellent, just excellent. I'd even recommend this video to a friend.

Great instructions, I am sick of working on my rifles and projects on my kitchen table!
Will build one, although I am going to make it a bit bigger and longer. Thanks!

I'm new to carpentry, and this vid was EPIC in helping me understand some basics. Thanks!

Would this be considered a medium - heavy dury work bench?
I just bought a metal bench from Candian Tire and the reviews were awful on it. Great for light duty but can't mount a vise on it and don't be doing any major hammering.
I want something very sturdy/solid and those two butt joints on each end don't seem super strong.

@sannitig I have a vice on one of mine constructed this way (8 feet long) and it works fine. If you want to beef it up then use 4x4s for the legs.

whats are the measurements for the 3/25'' plywood for the counter top and bottom pieces?

@315mulder To be honest I can not remember. You can measure for it when you get to that stage in the project. Also, I do have an Ebook on how to build this garage workbench. See homeadditionplus(dot)com/Bid-Sheet-Ebook-info/Build-Garage-Workbench-Ebook.htm
