How to Build a Workbench Tutorial
3 min read
Have you ever wanted a nice wood shop table saw workbench and a router table all in one? Today I want to show you a table saw workbench that I designed to help bring some order to my little workshop.
To help organize this project of ours, we partnered up with Rockler Woodworking and Hardware.
Check out their site at Rockler.com
They have so many good options for keeping our shop in order and many great tools for building projects. We are excited to partner up with them for this very reason. I will show you all the great tools that I have now because of them, and how it is making my garage shop experience so much better. Below in the post there are affiliate links to the products that I have now and love using. I am so excited to show you how I build the workbench now.
I have always wanted to build a big table saw workbench. It has been years in the making in my head and now finally coming true to life. It is a large central table that I will use for almost everything. The table has the table saw and router table built in. It would also include a vice and many options for clamping for working on projects. It’s going to organize and store tools as well. It is going to be AWESOME!!
You can download and print the building plans from our blog:
