Love the simplicity of this video. Straight to the point. Well edited. No filler commentary. Good bullet points. Just a plain saw and drill nothing fancy. Very easy to follow.

Great book for a beginner . youtube.com/post/UgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9… this book really starts from the beginning, as in it explains what basic tools are and how to use them. But when it gets to the art of creating joints and how and when to use them this book really starts to teach you something. At least that was my experience.

Fantastic video. No bullshit, no overdone intro, no music, no boring narrative, and a perfect ending.

You kept this simple and straight forward. On a level most of us can relate to. No Planing, No Joining or other equipment, other than the basics. Thank you.

A small tip, if I may. When cutting the top, leave a 1" overhang on the front. That way it's easy to dust off as you'll have a little lip to put a dustpan under. It is also nice to have an overhang for clamping lumber with a quick-grip clamp. Your "L" shaped legs are a neat idea. Nice vid!

Thank you very much. You made the table in a simple and easy way for beginners. Most of the carpenters on YouTube do it in a complicated way and with tools that are not available to the beginner. Thank you from the heart

Its nice to see a workbench build that doesn't require a pocket hole jig, planer, and a bunch of workworking tools.

I just did this build yesterday. Made a couple size mods for my needs, but otherwise the same. I am really happy with how it turned out. Thanks for the inspiration and motivation.

I’m just starting to get into woodworking and used this video as the inspiration to build my own worktable, but made a few minor adjustments. For the legs, instead of using 28-1/8” 2x4’s, I used 4x4’s cut to 30”. The rest of the frame is 2x4’s cut 71” wide by 34” deep. For the top, I had a sheet of 1” plywood left over from my bathroom remodel several years ago, so I cut that down to size and used it. It’s attached to the frame from underneath using twenty 3x3” metal brackets. With the casters, it’s the same height as my table saw. It’s big and heavy but rock solid, and overall I’m very pleased with how it turned out. Thanks.

At half the size, it took me almost half a day to build mine, and I'm glad I read some of the comments first, so I left an overhang for the top on three sides. Thanks for this good idea.

I really like the simplicity and the strength this workbench/outfeed table provides. Thank you for sharing it with us!

Clever ending. I love the combo of demonstrating the build quickly and linking to the PDF plans. It's unique and helpful. So many on here gab on and on forever with fancy intros, music, etc. I prefer no BS

Great to see a decent beginner friendly bench to get the workshop up and running. Been using a fold up painter/papering table, but it's time for an upgrade. Good video, and love the end.

Excellent. Simple and to the point. Not a lot of fancy jigs and cuts needed like others I saw. Perfect for a beginner like me. Keep ‘em comin’.

Thanks for the video and free plans! You're the first channel I check out for woodworking ideas, plans, guidance, and learning. Thanks for doing it.

Looking for an easy DYI work table, and 8 came across this. This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Easy, quick and not terribly expensive. Great job and thanks for uploading this!

Thanks for this idea. I made my new table yesterday, after this video. It takes me really about one hour.

Like it 👍🏻 I’m a plasterer and timber framer by trade and this is exactly how I build stuff. From studwalls, partitions, cupboards, decking, pergola’s even a garden shed 🤣 no nonsense just the right sized timber and some good straight cuts.....and of course screws 😃

Thank you. Built my workbench today. Obviously, took a lot longer than one hour for me. Came out very good for a first woodworking project.
