That’s a really nice setup. I need one for home and one for work. I’ve been building ambulances for 23 years and a setup like this solves half my problem
Thanks for the kind words. I’ve been living with this set up for almost a year now and it works great, it turned out to be very durable.
@@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797 thank you for the idea . Any advice to someone wanting to emulate your setup?
18:03 DYI'er, Gave me a chuckle.
Thanks for the video, I've been ĺooking at grabbing one of these tables for awhile now but all that wasted space underneath was bothering me. I was considering sound something similar but with a twist. It had left my seive of a brain awhile back and your video reminded me of it.
I love this build. I use my table for my sewing machines, so I need room for my feet under it, but the shelf will definitely work. You are a genius. I am going to share your video on my sewing group. Thanks.
Thank you for the kind words! Make it a great day!
I have done my own modification of one of the 52” version adding a undermount shelf to the rear of the table top behind the two drawers mine came equipped with. Mine was purchased to hold two diode lasers weighing around 50 lbs each. The thing none of these modifications mention is that the weight limit on these Husky tables is 300lbs. The manufacturer is probably being conservative but it’s still a factor worth keeping in mind. It would also be nice to know what would be most likely to fail under excess load. You could beef up casters but if it’s the crank mechanism that’s a different matter.
The weight capacity limit and addressing that is what I came looking for information on before making the commitment to purchasing one. The crank mechanism is my concern.
1:27 you did it, congrats!! I'm here doing research for a similar future project ;)
Nice project! Much appreciated putting measurements directly in the video… clean touch.
That's a really great idea! I just ordered two of these as desks in my studio...a 62" with drawers and a 46" without drawers. I'm going to configure them as an L shaped desk. You can't beat the price for a SOLID top desk AND height adjustable!
Thanks for the comment. I hear lots of people using these as desks…seem to work great for that application. Good luck!
great idea on adding cabinets. I've look at a lot of shop cabinets and tables etc. I like your all-in-one the best and will replicate it in my own garage. Great Work!!
Thank you for the kind words! Good luck with your build.
I liked the flow of the video. Really nice build, i liked how you were already incorporating the table as an outfeed table.
Nice build. I've thought of a similar one fir myself. If I do it, I think I'll put the bottom plywood piece below the feet instead of above.It will be more hidden, add a bit of storage, and allow me to replace casters with heavier, better locking alternatives easily.
Thank you! Placing the plywood base below the feet should work fine and yes, give you additional storage. One thing I forgot to mention in this video…I did replace the included castors with heavy duty ones. Good luck with your build!
Thanks for posting this build! I happened to find the 46" version of this for dirt cheap at an estate auction and have been googling ways to make it a more practicable shop table. The adjustable height is great and I really like what you've done with the cabinet storage. This is definitely the best design on RUclips (or anywhere online) for upgrading this style of adjustable height workbench. Thanks for sharing!
Let us know if you make any modifications to it down the road!
Thank you for your message. I appreciate the kind words. The only modifications I’ve made thus far is on the left side of the cabinet. I added a power strip and my cordless drill battery chargers. Good luck with your build! Thanks again for the support!
OUTSTANDING!!!!
I think have a project to get started on. Thanks for the inspiration
Love the table and I am going to build the same one!
Great addition of the shop towells
Great video. I live on site for work in the middle of nowhere. No garage and my tools take up more space than I have toolboxes to store them. I really think I’ll be doing this. I might try to do drawers on the left and right and leave the center for bigger item/toolbox storage. I don’t have a lot of wood working experience nor do I have a planner so we shall see if I go for it.
Thanks for your comment! Sounds like a great idea. I started out the same way…no experience…just started… made plenty of mistakes, and slowly figured it out. Good luck!
Killer build! Maybe I should do this instead of buying the one with drawers!
Great video man. I have that same bench and might do something similar with it.
Great video very informative. What no dog holes just kidding I like the plane top
I need one of those dewalt screwdrivers!😂
Great build, I much prefer drawers over open cabinet spaces. And I love seeing how CNC tasks can make for a more efficient workflow.
One thing about assembling drawers, you generally want to secure the face to the sides from the side rather than the front. That way the pulling force every time you open the drawer aren't working against you. What you could have done in the way you built your drawers here is cut a rabbet on the inside of the drawer faces on the sides and bottom, and nail the drawer fronts on from the sides. They'll probably be fine, just something to keep in mind for future builds.
Looking forward to more builds! Subscribed.
Thank you for the comment and constructive feedback. My only excuse for making the drawers this way was out of sheer simplicity. I kind of figured they were light duty enough that I shouldn’t have any problems later on. Overall, I couldn’t agree with you more! If you get a moment to watch my video on the CNC Cabinet build, you will see that I build those drawers with the technique you mention. Thanks again for subscribing, and if you have any suggestions on future videos, I would be more than grateful to hear them. Thanks again for the support!
I like your build, but since you were raving about the adjustability of the table why wouldn't you have highlighted the feature where you can use a cordless drill to "crank" the table top up and down rather than the manual hand turn crank?
You make a great point. Thanks for the question.
Great build! I want add some of these features to my bench.
Subbed. Nice build, and a project that is on my to-do list. I especially appreciate how you show the finished project in your intro. Too many youtube makers wait until the end of the video before showing the features of the build. I want to see early, so I have a reason to watch the rest..
Awesome, thank you!
do those construction screws really work for attaching that much plywood to the metal base?
Absolutely! Almost a year now of continuous use and still rock solid! I’m really happy that I did this build and probably would not make any changes if I had to build another one.
Sir
Thank you for this video. I have a the chance of getting three base three husky boxes lowers only. Do think this would work the same way? Installing them under the work bench? I have three
Thank you. Not sure if that would work? Definitely worth a try though.
Excellent video. I've been looking for an excuse to purchase one of these Husky tables - now I have it :) Thanks for sharing and good luck on the 1K subscribers, I'm sure you'll get there quickly!
Great job looks great
Love the video. I ended up starting to do a similar build but have a question. Did you put any support under the bottom plywood between the metal support cross beam? When I started loading weight onto the bottom plywood, it’s bending a good bit
Great question… I actually did add supports at first, because I was experiencing the same thing. However, when I started framing out the actual box which included the top part of the cabinet, that provided all the support and tension needed to keep the bottom from sagging.
Husky "worktop".
I enjoy this video. Am new to this video and Would love to be picked out for your giveaway thanks. Jennie
Is there a cut list available?
… Thanks for your question. Actually, no there isn’t. But you’re not the first person to ask this question. I’ll try to put one together and post it to this video. Thanks again for your support.
How did you screw the base to the table base ? Do you drill a hole into the metal?
Great question…the base actually has precut holes for mounting purposes.
@@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797 oh ok. Weird that I went HD this past weekend to see this table and did not see the hole
Oh no…so sorry! Brain fart on my end…I assumed you were referring to the table top attaching to the base frame.
I had to pre drill into the base frame to attach the bottom portion of the cabinet.
@@eastwingvintagewoodworking4797 Thanks for clarifying. Not your fault.. I was not super clear which base I was referring to. I really mean “drawer bottom” to workbench base
Do I get extra credit for subscribing before I knew about the giveaway?
Nice video, dude! I bought this Husky bench (48 inch size) after watching the Jonny Builds "Nothing Sticks video and I did about the same build underneath but with 2 spaces, not 3, for 2 lightweight pull-outs per space. I used scrap 1/2 plywood for the base, sides and top, more than sturdy, and only used a 3/4" plywood panel for support in the middle. But I did screw my left and right sides into the metal leg columns and I don't have hardly any wobble in the top -- which I seemed to see in your video at ruclips.net/video/LG7v6iZQpco/видео.html. Now, if anyone does that, take care to drill into the outermost sides of the leg columns -- at first I placed 2 screws too close to the center and they scraped the sides of the inside column/leg making it too hard to raise/lower the top.
Thanks for the shoutout and the comment. Interesting observation regarding wobble in the top of the cabinet. Maybe the video made it appear that way, but I can tell you with assurance there is no wobble or play in it whatsoever… It’s rocksolid. I’ve been using it now since I posted the video 4 weeks ago now and I’m really happy with its utility. It was a fun project!
Great work! , just what I'm wanting for my garage shop. i also have followed jonny builds , love the part where the 11 little girl paraphrases! (I'm assuming your daughter) I felt like I was reading Winnie the pooh story! great idea with the recessed tape measure!!! obligatory use of the cnc machine, to machine a paper towel holder!🤣(ruclips.net/video/KjB6r-HDDI0/видео.html)
@@mikedtubey thank you for the comment and kind words! Make it a great day!
