Building the Ultimate Workbench for my Dream Garage

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In today's episode, I'm building a MASSIVE workbench to get my dream garage organized. Small parts and hardware organization has been a real challenge for me in the workshop, so I'm fabricating and 3D printing my way into the craziest workbench I've ever made.

    This is a pretty solid little workbench. While once you figure out how it comes together, it is physically Easy to assemble kzread.infoUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh by yourself. But the diagrams explaining the steps are really pretty bad. I could not get the handle pins in all the way despite multiple attempts, so I just used a screw I had on hand for the 2nd handle. I could not get the first pin in further or pull it back out. You are supposed to hammer it in, but I had no leverage and the handle is plastic and I did not want to risk breaking it. I will get a lot of use out of the bench because of the convenient size and height. It does fold up nicely for storage. They even explain how to fold it so you don't get pinched...that is important!

    I have done similar to this, I cut the bottom out of a drawer then put in 1/2 inch plywood "U" shape nearly the height of both drawers and screwed that on the sides. This nicely completely covered up my very messy cut so I dont cut my hand open every time I stick it in there. I couldn't use a square shape because I couldn't open the drawers fully and place it in so I wound up cutting the back off so it's just a U now. Of course this means I lost an inch of drawer width but not a big deal for what I was doing. I also cut the bottom out of the top drawer with an angle grinder before removing the foam base from the second drawer. That was also a mistake.

I also looked into developing the tooling to injection mold them myself but this seemed like the easiest alternative. I've got black, and red/white/blue hats in stock!

    I got a 56" and a 6-ft butcher block top. Cut plywood to fit inside the lip, just a bit proud so I won't damage the sheet metal if I hammer on the butcher block. It allowed me to move the top around for a few days to figure out the overhang L-R and front-back before I committed to bolting it. I also bolted bumper hitches to the underside to temporarily attach small vises, bench grinder, and a belt & disk sander. You don't have to clear off the bench to make room for a bench tool!

    @@GrindhousePerformance (Not sure where my reply went. Maybe the Amazon links were causing a problem. ) The bumper hitch already had a bolt tapped in. A quick turn with a wrench stops the wobble. Mounted a parrot vise to a winch plate. Grinder and belt/disc sander are on a 2x12 first, then a winch plate. Eventually will have 2 small 4-5" vises and a grinder with wire and buffing wheels. I just saw Harbor Freight makes a hitch-mount vise now. Worth a look for me. Also looking at making some kind of 'shelf'-like thing out of strut channel to dock the mounted equipment when not used.

  • @GrindhousePerformance

    I picked these specifically because of the drawer arrangement and width. With the top narrow drawers I think you'll run out of physical space before you hit the weight limit of the drawer slides. If the drawers were a lot larger they'd get extremely heavy full of hardware and that's not really what these style toolboxes are designed for. Being 8 drawers, I'm planning to have the bottom 2 deep drawers be overflow storage for the 6 top drawers. Drawer 4-6 has enough height for adding a second set of slides if I overload them. I also liked the symmetrical look between everything, a lot of the wider boxes have a wide set of drawers and a smaller one. I'm also only putting hardware & supplies in this box. If you're also storing tools there might be better options 👍

    Awesome idea with the tool boxes and the countertop! Did you consider a sled design for the table saw so that you could rip a few storage bins at a time, the 3d printer pliers design is neat but that is a lot of time cutting one bin at a time. I had to do something similar for a home project and threw together a quick sled with scrap plywood and was able to rip 5 pieces at a time of some plastic post caps.

    I made a few attempts with other ways of cutting the bins. I'd tried all the different tools etc in the shop and some other designs/sleds but the pliers seemed the most consistent/safest. The taper on the sides really wants to walk out if you don't have enough pressure on multiple sides. I could've gotten away with a sled if I was comfortable getting fingers closer to the blade. With doing a couple thousand of them I wanted something I thought gave a little more room. I was able to do a full drawer in about 30 minutes 👍
