Building a DIY Workbench - Part 3 - By Ed

This is the last of three videos on how to build a workbench. This video is how I went about building this bench and is meant to give the general idea of how to design and build your own bench. I do not give plans for this bench, but if enough people request them I would be willing to create another video with plans.

If you have any questions, please put them in the comments.

Also, as me and my friend were watching the final video we found that it is loaded with "that's what she said" statements. If you hear a good one, put the time in the comments.

Your bench turned out beautifully, Ed. The design and the color are perfect. Ignore the safety trolls because anyone who attempts to use the various tools you've used should already know about shop safety. Could you make a video that shows how you mounted your vice to the benchtop? If you could include the hardware you used and the hole positions, then that would be extremely helpful. Thank you so much for posting videos of your build as well as the great instruction and the useful tips.

Nice bench...I did one a few years ago about the same for my garage. Apparently I didn't notice the "floor slope" and ended-up 1/2" off level once in place! Relocated to the front wall and all is well. Keep posting!

How did you wire the outlets? Are they hard wired in or do they plug into the wall like a power strip?

What videos should i look for on how you did the outlets and switch to hook to like

So in the end with screws, lumber and lighting and stain was is the estimate of the cost to build this fine workbench?

I just put my own version of this bench together (just the bench, no backing) and I'll post pictures with dimensions if anyone's interested. This is an awesome video...but man, it wasn't easy for a newbie to come up with a few of these dimensions without a lot of anxiety over getting it wrong.

Awesome video series! Very informative. This is a great workbench. Definitely on the top of my project list when I move to the new house.
