Thank you for all of the feedback and questions! Part 2 ruclips.net/video/7NEJQortCtU/видео.html is done and maybe this will help. Even then this workbench is not done and any more suggestions would be appreciated.
As far as the planer goes, would it be possible to shift it around 90 degrees so that you could use the entire underside of the bench as an "outfeed table"? It's hard to tell how much clearance you have, but it's just a thought.
Couple suggestions. 1. Remove the cross beam that supports the table saw legs in the back and make two 45s that connect to the legs and holds up the table saw legs. Frees up the dust collection port and outfeed end to fold up on your planer. 2. Put a folding outfeed table on piano hinges that lays in the back but could fold up with a strong brace so you don't drop all your cuts onto the ground behind the table. Great consolidated table you made there!
Your video popped up, I watched it and I muttered, "This guy should be a technology teacher" and, yes you are! Retired teacher here and after years of lesson plans and instructional planning, I know the effort it takes to explain things thoroughly. Your videos get a whole bunch of 'A's. You makes us proud.
Would be absolutely wonderful if you could supply a parts list for the whole think including wood as well as tools, and plans to assemble. Would love to have someone make this for my husband for Father's Day or our anniversary! Well designed and great demonstration videos!
Some measurements will change based on the table saw, miter saw and planer you have. Highly doubt everyone has the same exact equipment. Tons of other setups out there that even include a spot for a router.
Trust me, your husband would want to make it himself. That's a really sweet gesture. Willing to bet he would absolutely appreciate you finding a few different ones and you two working together on making one, letting him take the lead on what he wants of course. Some husband's would rather chill in the garage by themselves and be left alone but many of us husbands absolutely appreciate a supportive helpful wife that gives us the space but support to do things like this. Heck just bringing me some water is a big deal as I build those shelves you wanted for the pantry, ya know? My wife has very rarely helped, volunteered etc but the few times she has, I've never forgotten and truly appreciated it.
Just came across this video after I built my own custom mobile workbench to hold my table saw and mitre saw. Mine is wider and shorter with storage compartments so I don’t get sawdust all over my tools. I love it and it’s absolutely necessary for small spaces. Plus, I keep all sawdust out of the garage by cutting outside
You sir made it look easy,would love the plans for this unit if possible,As an old man I can say that your students are very lucky to have you and with what you have done is taught an old dog some new tricks.Good show looking forward to more.
Overall it’s a decent table. If you’re not using it for big heavy projects. Its gets unstable when using my jigsaw and handsaw. Table starts to shake and lifts off the ground. Maybe I’m doing something wrong?Also the folding mechanic works great ruclips.net/user/postUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh when setting up, but I can’t get the table to fold down. It gets stuck 3/4ths on the way down.
You should make the miter saw a removal shelf that slides out, then you could swap out different tools, ie router, planer, scroll saw etc attached to their own bases. You would only need to have rails at different heights so each tool's cutting surface is flush with the table top. Then you could build a 24x24x8ft tall rack to store all the tools attached to their bases so they're easily accessible for fast swap. I have a couple of projects ahead in the queue before I get building it, but I've been mulling around a similar concept as your table for a while now. Thanks for the ideas.

Seeing your comment it's exactly what I was thinking too. That would truly make this a multi tool workbench.
This table is so well planned out! I was very surprised those little casters would manage such a big piece of lumber, especially when you reinforced the entire structure with extra boards and made the whole structure 50% heavier. Didn't expect those little guys to hold up like that.
Overall I really like the layout. The length could be shorter without the storage, but I like you do not need to move the miter saw. I think because I have the Dewalt Table saw, I will have more room for my future planer. Thank you for taking the time to explain all this.
I would add a flip up/down out feed table on back for the table saw. And another flip up/down side table next to your miter saw so it is easier to cut long pieces.
Best detailed bench design, construction and assembly I’ve seen. I am a “work in progress” shop and space is my biggest challenge, other than never enough time. Very well done, most impressed!
I know your videomis about a year old, but it's exactly what I was looking for! By the way, as a fellow Z06 owner, I almost had a heart attack watching you cut the wood next to yours!!
Loved your project and what you did with your Delta table saw. I bought my Delta table saw 36-1501 T2 three years ago and been in love with it ever since. You inspired me to make a bench similar to yours. Thank you for sharing.
Great work! My only opinion is I would’ve made them separate but still able to put them flush up against one another to save space. I would like the option of being able to move the table saw around and using rollers for ripping longer pieces of wood. Same with the miter saw and I’m not particularly fond of having to bend over to use the plainer either. Then you could have the storage underneath for each thing having their perspective attachments, blades, tools for switching parts out, etc. Plus with separating them, it wouldn’t be as hard to move them around. Just my two cents!
This is very timely for me. :) my workshop has been on lock down for two years now. First we discovered mold in the house and my brother in law got a big carried away on the remodel project. So anything that was in the house had to go somewhere. and my little shop was called into duty. Then the pandemic came rolling in. So we are just now getting started on pulling out of the shop, sorting on what to keep and what not to keep, and I'm slowly getting my shop back. It needs a lot of help and new benches.
I like the idea of adding a router. Another idea I saw, one that I wish I could take credit for, is attaching miter saws, drills, etc. onto their own drawers/shelves that slide into their respective slots when used and slide into a cabinet when not being used. This idea would also free up bench top space. An idea I've been playing with because I have limited space in my garage is taking that four by eight table plan most people use and somehow making it so it unfolds into a sixteen foot bench. My garage is long and narrow, one vehicle wide, I'm not sure if yours is long enough for this idea or deep enough if you want to put it on the back wall. Thanks for the video, can't wait to see the next parts. Curt
From what everyone is saying I think the router table is a must. I also like the idea of other machines that could attach to the workbench either on a folding table or a french cleat style mount. Thanks!
I like it. A little refinement and I could see it being quite useful. I would maybe put the planer in the middle on the same slides. And then use the space underneath the table saw for other tools.
Own a house finally and my handy man bailed! I ended up getting a lot of tools and actually found I enjoy wood working and remodeling! My Garage though is a mess at the moment, but once I clean? I am doing this. 100%. Can't wait till it gets warmer! Awesome video!
Beautiful job! And so well thought out! I envy your choice of table saw. I carefully and strongly considered it, but I didn't realize it could be broken down like that, and I wanted to do a similar workbench with built in tools. So I opted for the DeWalt saw, I really liked the rack and pinion fence. But the aluminum top has been a disappointment, and if I could undo that decision, I would! I am currently working on my workbench as well, mine is 4' x 7', I'm fortunate enough to have a larger then average garage! I'm putting my DeWalt planer on a separate flip cart with my sander. But the one tool I would suggest you add would be a router with a lift. I'm building that into mine, with a t-track fence. I think you'd find that really worthwhile! I look forward to seeing what else you do!
I like how you share your idea's were others leave a link to pay for their plan's. Those i ignore when your starting up a workshop you want advice and help from those that know with experience.great vid.and this will help me in my build. Thank you
I have a 3 car garage, one garage is separated however. I converted it to a workshop. Even though I have the entire garage to myself (it's like 12 foot by 20 foot) I appreciate the efficiency. What I figured out is I have EVERYTHING in my shop on locking caster wheels so If I have a large wood slab, I can move around everything and be agile. Ie, table saw can be folded down on sides for more compact items, rolled out or in garage to rip cuts or whatever I need to do. Dual bevel miter saw same thing, on wheels and can be moved around. Main workbench can be rolled around and adjusted. For me, it works. If I had a much larger shop things would be more permanent but I don't have that luxury :) For the planer, if the bench is against the wall, that would be an issue for sliding any lumber through, but since it's on wheels I guess like myself you can be moveable.
Great to finally see a work bench build that integrates the Delta 36-725T2. I just bought one of these and have had a very similar bench design in my head that I hope to begin work on soon. Mine will not include room for my miter saw but I do plan on adding dust collection, drawers, and storage for things like push sticks, saw blades, the fence, and my sled. Obviously I am sure it will end up holding more. Looking forward to seeing how your work bench comes a long!
Great ideas and great bench. The only thing that I would change would to be putting the planer below the mitre saw. That way you could put dust collection below the table saw and install a covered storage drawer below the table saw with room for the hose.
Después de haber observado muchos vídeos sobre bancos de trabajo y bases para herramientas, muy novedosos todos ellos, llegué a la conclusión de que cada uno de ellos está pensado para condiciones muy particulares de cada carpintero que los comparte, por lo que elegir uno u otro diseño es un asunto serio para quienes les seguimos y aprendemos. Así que imitar algúno de ellos puede conllevar a una decisión no adecuada a su particular condición de espacio y tipo de proyectos que mayoritariamente construyan. Recordar que la simpleza y funcionalidad pueden resolver nuestros problemas, ayuda bastante.
Echo what a lot of users wrote. I’ve been thinking about how to use the side space of garage and get as many tools as possible like yours. Love the planer addition as I haven’t found one that incorporates the planer. I initially thought about rotating for outfeed but would probably have the bottom piled up with stuff any way. One thing I’ve been contemplating is rotating the table saw so I have an out feed for the table saw including if I have a jig in the mitre slot. This is a big help though. Thank you. Great job.
a suggestion would be to clock the planner 90 degrees, solves the dust collection issue, plus you won't have to move the table to use it with longer pieces of lumber. Simply slide it out, connect dust collection feed the work from the left side (facing table) and feed it through underneath.
Love it. Same thought I have on most of these it would be handy to show the finished product at the beginning so we can understand the context of the middle 90% of these how-to videos
Ok, everyone else in the comments already heaped praise on the awesome bench and your excellent teaching skills, so I'm just going to say, 'Nice Cleetus McFarland t-shirt at the beginning of the video.' Hellllllll Yaaaaaaaaa Brother!
This is a good idea except if the material is of any significant width it would probably impact the the miter saw and force it to be physically removed from the table (which I'm guessing is a bigger pain than sliding the workbench away from the wall, which he's probably doing most projects anyway).
I love the planer under the table saw. If you rotated it you could use the bottom of the bench as an out feed for it, but probably not necessary. One idea I do have is the far right corner behind the miter could have been extended out a bit so that a drill press could be mounted on it. That planer is on my want list.
Both of those are great ideas. I believe in part 2 there is a lot more added to the bottom also a drill press, band saw or sander is not off the table yet. Ya I really like mine so far. Not cheap but does a great job.
Great timing. I’m in the middle of a similar build. I have an older Craftsman table saw. I built a platform for it and did not think about hanging it from the rails. Now I’m working on leveling the table saw top and the bench. For the miter saw, it is located more in the middle of the table. The plan is to remove the miter saw and store on bottom when not in use. I’ll swap in a spacer and I’ll have the whole top as a work surface when the miter saw is stored. Table saw dust collection will be a 90 deg connected to a side panel and a shop vac. Underneath storage will also include my rarely used scroll saw. Future upgrades will be a blade storage, tool/accessory storage and possibly hooks for sled storage. I look forward to your future upgrades.
I like this design a lot - looks like it will do a lot in a relatively small space, and eliminate the need for constant setup/teardown in a small workspace. I like the double bracing on all of the frame and it no doubt adds a lot for strength. A couple of thoughts though: Diagonal bracing across the center of the back, on the right side, and underneath would add a lot of rigidity to this build, and help ensure against shifting/slop over time under all the weight of the tools. Rather than dealing with what looks to be a cumbersome method to drop the feet below the casters - maybe consider flip-down casters instead, with levelling feet mounted to the bottom of the frame. Aside from those 2 things - this looks great and I really like this build. Thanks for sharing.
If there was one thing that you could do, I would suggest that you rotate the planer so that you can use the long side of the bench as an outfeed support. Hope that helps. God Bless.
I agree. TTT is doing a great job and he is nice enough not just to be showing off... But to display it all in a way I can try to make one too. Dude... With this table there are a lot of possibilities... I would love to have a setup like this and a flip table Drill press / scroll saw
Nice work! (as always). This looks portable enough that you could roll it up a ramp into a trailer and take it to a jobsite or a friends' house to help them with a project. For example, feel free to swing by my house this weekend and build one of these for me :)
This is a great work bench! More detailed than I thought, but I see why! I too have a small garage and am thinking of building one to make greater use of space (hence watching your video). Thank you for posting this!
I thought the screw usage was a little excessive, then I saw he’s using cabinet grade and thought you over spent, but you’re a grown man. All in all, solid table and great video. Ty
A belt sander, drill press, and bench grinder would probably make it the ultimate bench, and as you mentioned a router as well. When I saw the way you put in the miter saw, My engineer brain went to thinking modular inserts where the Miter saw is at... Granted big heavy tools may be a pain to make modular, but having say, a drill press bolted to a board that can store underneath the bench and is swappable with the miter saw would be really cool. Btw, great video!!!!
Router. Very similar footprint and structure to what I built 5 yrs ago. I like how you include a miter saw. I’ll be looking at how to modify mine. Thanks.
Great job...I have virtually the same tools and space I am trying to plan for and ran across this video trying to decide how I am going to organize workflow and this is perfect!! As others have mentioned a set of plans would be great and I'm sure you could get paid for your efforts. Thanks!
Just watch your video. I like the idea. I would change the location in the bottom middle of the work bench but facing sideways to feed the wood from side to side and more space for the dust collection house. Thanks for the idea
Maybe some drawers? And/or make it split into two separate pieces for larger cuttings? Keep joined with hinge pins? Make shelves, cubbie holes for drills, accessories, jig saw etc.
I really love it,this is perfect this is going to help me get organized in my garage, I hope you don’t mind, but I’m going to try and build it similar to yours thank you for sharing, stay safe.
I totally had an adrenaline dump when you mentioned needing help holding it together and half of it fell over. I was thinking about the 'vette being near by.

*calmly sends sawdust towards Z06*
lol Ya it was either dust or the snow and sleet outside. My thought was that was the lesser of two evils. Probably need a good car cover.
I know! I was like ummmmm. I have to move the BMW every time i start wood working. When I had a Z06 I had to move her. No snow in Texas tho lol
That killed me!!!!
Something tells me it encounters much worse than that just driving to get coffee
Delta planer??? Did you mean Dewalt planer..... Delta table saw??.
Couple suggestions. 1. Remove the cross beam that supports the table saw legs in the back and make two 45s that connect to the legs and holds up the table saw legs. Frees up the dust collection port and outfeed end to fold up on your planer. 2.

The little slight nod of contempt and acknowledgement when that half of the bench falls down - I felt that so much lol. Know that exact feeling
DIY for carpenters... Not the average Joe without those tools.
Would be absolutely wonderful if you could supply a parts list for the whole think including wood as well as tools, and plans to assemble. Would love to have someone make this for my husband for Father's Day or our anniversary! Well designed and great demonstration videos!
Some measurements will change based on the table saw, miter saw and planer you have. Highly doubt everyone has the same exact equipment. Tons of other setups out there that even include a spot for a router.

I came to say the same thing. ARRRGHHH the wood dust on the Vette.
I just bought my first, used, delta shop master tablesaw. Watching this to get an idea to build a bench asap. Thanks for this.

It makes the frame 100% heavier.

For the planer, if the bench is against the wall, that would be an issue for sliding any lumber through, but since it's on wheels I guess like myself you can be moveable.
You're my hero. The only thing cooler than that work bench is that Z06. Nice work pal!

Can't believe you generated all that sawdust with your car right there!
Also a T2 owner. Good idea! I think you could add a foldable outfeed table.
Great idea! I like the foldable outfeed
Wow what a great job. Lots of thought put in the build.

Same thought I have on most of these it would be handy to show the finished product at the beginning so we can understand the context of the middle 90% of these how-to videos
As someone who loves to over build… this video was very fun to watch!!
Awesome to hear thanks!
I like how the dog is just chillin there:)
Ok, everyone else in the comments already heaped praise on the awesome bench and your excellent teaching skills, so I'm just going to say, 'Nice Cleetus McFarland t-shirt at the beginning of the video.' Hellllllll Yaaaaaaaaa Brother!
Nice idea, my area is narrow so I think I would make mobile flip top bench’s that I could gang together for longer work area.
Good choice on theTruewerk gear !
wow, those 2x4 look much better after planing
As someone who does wood work and car stuff as a hobby, this video makes me happy and sad at the same time 😂. Nice car btw
Awesome video. Building a similar design right now and your video was a lot of help. Thank you for going step by step!
Any thoughts on rotating the table saw 90’ so you can use the space between the table and miter saws as an out-feed space?
This is a good idea except if the material is of any significant width it would probably impact the the miter saw and force it to be physically removed from the table (which I'm guessing is a bigger pain than sliding the workbench away from the wall, which he's probably doing most projects anyway).
You could put the mitre saw platform on a hinge so it folds down.
He probably takes the miter out to his garden to use it and then puts it back on the table for display purposes.
Brad nails are the best second pair of hands for holding boards until they are screwed in
That head nod when that piece fell over lol been there
I love it - cant wait for a cut list/plans.
As soon as I'm done I will attempt to make the plans available
Looks like a really fun project. Built a greenhouse in glulam beams and 4 mill tough glass. Came out really nice as well
I want to see it!
I love the planer under the table saw. If you rotated it you could use the bottom of the bench as an out feed for it, but probably not necessary. One idea I do have is the far right corner behind the miter could have been extended out a bit so that a drill press could be mounted on it. That planer is on my want list.
Both of those are great ideas. I believe in part 2 there is a lot more added to the bottom also a drill press, band saw or sander is not off the table yet. Ya I really like mine so far. Not cheap but does a great job.
Great timing. I’m in the middle of a similar build. I have an older Craftsman table saw. I built a platform for it and did not think about hanging it from the rails. Now I’m working on leveling the table saw top and the bench. For the miter saw, it is located more in the middle of the table. The plan is to remove the miter saw and store on bottom when not in use. I’ll swap in a spacer and I’ll have the whole top as a work surface when the miter saw is stored. Table saw dust collection will be a 90 deg connected to a side panel and a shop vac. Underneath storage will also include my rarely used scroll saw. Future upgrades will be a blade storage, tool/accessory storage and possibly hooks for sled storage. I look forward to your future upgrades.
Sounds like yours is going to be pretty sweet!
Have been planning something like this for a while. You've given me some great ideas. Thank you
I like this design a lot - looks like it will do a lot in a relatively small space, and eliminate the need for constant setup/teardown in a small workspace. I like the double bracing on all of the frame and it no doubt adds a lot for strength. A couple of thoughts though:
Diagonal bracing across the center of the back, on the right side, and underneath would add a lot of rigidity to this build, and help ensure against shifting/slop over time under all the weight of the tools.
Rather than dealing with what looks to be a cumbersome method to drop the feet below the casters - maybe consider flip-down casters instead, with levelling feet mounted to the bottom of the frame.
Aside from those 2 things - this looks great and I really like this build. Thanks for sharing.
If there was one thing that you could do, I would suggest that you rotate the planer so that you can use the long side of the bench as an outfeed support. Hope that helps. God Bless.
*side falls over*
*nods* "yup. that checks out"
XD
This is great, would love to see the finished version! I think this is the best all in one station I have seen and actually makes me want to make one!
I agree. TTT is doing a great job and he is nice enough not just to be showing off... But to display it all in a way I can try to make one too. Dude... With this table there are a lot of possibilities... I would love to have a setup like this and a flip table Drill press / scroll saw
Nice work! (as always). This looks portable enough that you could roll it up a ramp into a trailer and take it to a jobsite or a friends' house to help them with a project. For example, feel free to swing by my house this weekend and build one of these for me :)
Thanks! lol Rolling out into the driveway would work great but into a trailer we may need larger caster wheels lol
This is a great work bench! More detailed than I thought, but I see why! I too have a small garage and am thinking of building one to make greater use of space (hence watching your video). Thank you for posting this!
I thought the screw usage was a little excessive, then I saw he’s using cabinet grade and thought you over spent, but you’re a grown man. All in all, solid table and great video. Ty
A belt sander, drill press, and bench grinder would probably make it the ultimate bench, and as you mentioned a router as well.
When I saw the way you put in the miter saw, My engineer brain went to thinking modular inserts where the Miter saw is at... Granted big heavy tools may be a pain to make modular, but having say, a drill press bolted to a board that can store underneath the bench and is swappable with the miter saw would be really cool.
Btw, great video!!!!
This is brilliant, it’s really helped me come up with ideas for what I want!!
Best wishes from England
Router.
Very similar footprint and structure to what I built 5 yrs ago. I like how you include a miter saw. I’ll be looking at how to modify mine. Thanks.
Thanks, good luck!
Great job...I have virtually the same tools and space I am trying to plan for and ran across this video trying to decide how I am going to organize workflow and this is perfect!! As others have mentioned a set of plans would be great and I'm sure you could get paid for your efforts. Thanks!
I enjoyed this video, thanks. A couple cons for me would be the casters and working on the floor (almost) with the planer.
Ya I can agree with you. Trying to fit all this in a small area has proved to be a challenge lol
Little tip when jigsawing your circular cut for your chop saw. Cut just short of your trace line and then sand the rest to the line.
Just watch your video. I like the idea. I would change the location in the bottom middle of the work bench but facing sideways to feed the wood from side to side and more space for the dust collection house. Thanks for the idea
Thanks! Ya there are a million ways to do it. Maybe some parts may make more sense in part 2
Maybe some drawers? And/or make it split into two separate pieces for larger cuttings? Keep joined with hinge pins? Make shelves, cubbie holes for drills, accessories, jig saw etc.
nice bench, great integration of a good quality mitre saw and table saw. I would probably want a bench vice and some clamping options
Sick, u could also use the table saw fence as a stop for the miter saw!
I really love it,this is perfect this is going to help me get organized in my garage, I hope you don’t mind, but I’m going to try and build it similar to yours thank you for sharing, stay safe.
I totally had an adrenaline dump when you mentioned needing help holding it together and half of it fell over. I was thinking about the 'vette being near by.
I like it. I was thinking about making something similar, but with 4x4s and half-lap joints vs all of those pocket hole screws.
