This portable workbench is a quick and easy build with just a drill and a circular saw. It folds down and stores the essential tools. Can be stored under the bed. It's perfect for apartments, small spaces, or a workshop on the go - can be carried down stairs, on to decks and patios, and loaded into almost any car.

List of Tools:
This solves my problem. I was into furniture + other woodworking before I married my husband. Afterwards, I got sick & he adopted my tools. Now I am ready to enjoy my hobby again. I can make this & separate my to buy new tools (so he won't scatter them) and have my reclaimed small space. I love your ideas!!! I love your family & sharing!!! No response necessary. You are just the best!!
The first half of the ruclips.net/user/postUgkx3ICSK6nSknaL_45CU2NmFSoXjarGMDiJ book is everything about wood: types, tools, finishes, setting up shop etc. The second half is all about doing projects for inside and outside of the home. The color pictures are helpful. After reading a dozen of these types of books, this is probably the best overall (layout, color photos, plans). Only detraction is that many of the projects use a table saw/router/planer, which are usually expensive and take up space, so the plans are less friendly to newcomers and the budget conscious. But I know I can use a drill, circular saw or a jigsaw to make the projects.
If you keep teaching us newbies the basics of using a speed square, a Ryobi drill/driver, and a Ryobi circular saw, I am going to buy all three and make this bench. We have a Ryobi weed whacker, pole saw, chain saw, and lawn mower, and are happy with all of them. The ever-expanding LIME GREEN section in our garage, LOL. Ryobi, if you read these comments, Ana White is your best investment. I love your yard work line up, but she has sold me on your workshop tools.
The Ryobi line is definitely worth it; very affordable and in your case you probably already own the battery(ies) and charger!
Ryobi should do a black Friday giveaway on Anna's channel. She is their best commercial ever without even trying.
I'd agree with that!
The fact that you removed the battery before you adjusted the blade. 😍😍😍
That little table is awesome! What's even better is your kindness at setting up that loaner kit for your friends. It's that mindset of sharing not only your tools, but your ideas and designs to the rest of us that makes you so inspiring. (A few months ago you gave this old lady courage to finally try woodworking myself.) Thanks, again for all you do!
I will be making two. One to work with my miter saw and drill press. The other for my sew machine and serger!
Nice little table. To add value I suggest you cut a lid to fit under the folded table, fix the tools to the lid so that it forms one neat package. Then when unpacking, hang the lid with the tools on the wall.
Wow that is a brilliant idea!
Awesome idea!
great idea, you could add those clip fasteners like on a toolbox lid to attach and detach the lid.
Keep them coming
This is a table/workbench that would be idea for RVers. Dimensions could be adjusted to work as both a outdoor dining table and a workbench and fit into the available storage spaces of your RV.
Great plan! Thank you Mrs. White.
I made this portable bench. It’s a cool design and can be really useful but I feel it needs a few elements to make it better. The legs don’t lock so if I push it from an end the opposite legs ride up and potentially over, collapsing that end which could be an ill timed disaster. The legs totally depend on the strength of the butt joints since they pivot and that’s a long lever. Mine broke the glue on the butt joints and now only the screws are holding it together which might not be for long using pine. I probably should have cut 1x6’s from plywood. Steel corner braces can fix this. I think another 1x3 with V’s cut into the end and span those cross members could brace the legs to prevent the collapsing issue. That does make for one additional piece that won’t fit in the box though.
I do really appreciate you sharing this and I learned a lot going through the process.
Great suggestions!
Great concept. I would add a grid of dog-holes for clamping and sawing options. Dogholes, either 3/4" diameter, 4" on center in all directions or 20mm diameter, 96 mm on center in all directions.
Thank you, Ana. This is so perfect for those of us just getting started with workshop and home improvement projects on a budget. I'm not in an apartment now, but I remember when I was living in a small space. This would have been a great way to store tools under the bed. When I make this, I'll just use the folding feature to save space in my garage, but store the tools in totes. Thank you. You really are a gem.
Bravo Ana.
I will build this workbench next week-end.
Keep on inspiring us.
Thank you for sharing
I love the idea, but I would take it one step further and add wheels on one side for easy maneuvering .
Good idea to add wheels
Smart!
I thought the same. 👏
Fabulous! I downsized to a smaller house and this will work perfectly. Thank you AGAIN Ana.
Glad to hear!!
I just learned something about screws. The larger the screw head, the better chance it will pull the two pieces of wood together, and here I have been using those little trim screws. Thanks for the tip!
I do handyman work in our 55+ park. This is a great idea. Fits in the back of the SUV, holds extra tools and provides a bench at the job site. NICE.
Thank You.
Perfect!
Very nice. Now that's something I would love to have under my bed instead of junk.
Thanks for sharing,
Chris from Missouri
Thank you !!!! Exactly what we need for our small wood-shop. Needed some sturdy saw horses for cutting full sheets. Going to build 2 tomorrow!
Fasten a piano hinge to a long side and secure it to the backside of my kitchen island for extra work space when I need it. My cabin is not large.
So many smart folks out there finding simple solutions for the DIY/ Woodworking Bug that creeps in sooner or later.

Thanks for watching and welcome!
This could be great for a coffee table that gets stored under a couch, too.
This is an awesome idea. A friend of mine lives in an apartment. This would be great for her. 👏👏
Nothing wrong with Ryobi cordless tools. I've been using them for years in commercial construction and around my home. I've had mine for over eight years. Even the batteries last a long time.
I really appreciate that you included the plans with this, thanks a lot! This'll be perfect to use out on my condo's patio!
Ana, make two shallow trays to hold all of your tools (with handles that do not stick up above the table sides) so that you don't have to remove and replace the tools individually when you use the table. The trays will also make it easy to move your tools to your work site rather than carry them individually. Good video.
I’m gonna make this when it starts getting a little warmer outside (don’t have a workshop) and expect it to pull double duty for most of the summer as a make shift table while we have cookouts!
This would fit under my bed in my caravan tiny house. Have been looking for a solution for my tools. Perfect thanks for sharing Ana:-)
Wow, even if I wasn't interested in the particular project video, I would still be mesmerized by the captivating Mrs. Ana White. Personally, I like to consider this one a portable shooting bench for the range. Nicely done.
What a great idea for those who don’t have shop space! The handles were a great extra piece that makes it much more maneuverable
Por fin encontré el diseño que buscaba... sencillo, funcional y efectivo... además Ana White eres muy simpática y linda!!. Gracias!!!
That makes a great gift idea... thanks Ana for another Christmas gift idea... 👍
Thanks!!
Thanks Anna! It’s such a great project and gift idea!
Hi Ana, just found your project. Well done. Simple design and "doable" with simple tools. Greetings from Paraguay.
Thank you and welcome!
Good video. I would jusr add a latch top to contain the tools upright. Add wheels to one side to roll around when closed up/
I am in construction/remodeling and came across this video while watching reviews on folding work tables, needless to say ..i didn't buy one, I built yours. Added a few things like clamp dog-holes and a T-track. The looks I got when I first set it up was great. You just got yourself a new subscriber.
Glad it was helpful!
What a smart design. Your mind is always turning.
Fantastic idea! Anna I just want to tell you that your my reason I got into DIY! I’ve took on the hobby of building furniture on my own. I purchased all the tools you use! ( holy cow what an expense! ) it’s all good though because I love all my Ryobi tools! I’m in the process of remodeling my house but next year, I will do a few of your projects (which I love!). I will send pics. I promise! Keep them coming! Thank you Anna!
Great project! This is even useful for anyone with a shop to use as an extra work surface when needed. Tip: If you use longer bolts, you can double nut the legs and not have to worry about the nuts working loose over time.
I made this today. Thank you, Ana! Appreciate all you that you do.
Wonderful!
Thank you! This is exactly what I've been looking for! You never fail to have a video of exactly what I need when I need it! I have a small space and have been looking for a work bench that isn't too big and has a place a can store stuff
Awesome ‼️I could take it outside of my garage , nice. Love it.
Awesome! Going to build one myself. I do a lot of off-site work and this is really handy. THANK You for posting
Happy to help!
Another fabulous design and seriously considering it for myself. Thank you.
She always does great work!
Thanks!
Another superb tutorial. Thank you.
Ana- Well what a clever item! Thank you for sharing! 👏👏👏💕
I LOVE this! Thank you!
Cool design . im gonna add wheels to mine for job site work
Every week you make me want to build
Great idea and also extendable. You could add some MFT-Style holes or even some wheels to make it easy to slide under the bed :-)
Great job Ana! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
Greetings,
All ok.
Safety spectacles 👍.
Thanks. Love it.
Thanks Ana ... this is just perfect!
Pretty damn nifty I live in an apartment and am getting all my tools together and bought for cold forging some Viking axes and some knifes pre-fab using a grinder and what not and my own quench tank I built at the fab shop. And just about got everything together I need spent about 360$ but the last thing I needed was a workbench preferably mobile or foldable I can take out back to work this I think would be perfect, there's not a lot of weight besides the vice ill mount but I don't see it having a problem holding that, its a smaller Olympie one. I might just make this bad boy, Thank You for the great idea!!
Sweet, I hope it works great for you!
I would put legs on exterior to put a bottom under, to keep tools stored while using table, and/or a drawer for tools and also add a removeable/reversible sacrificial surface...but otherwise smart and cool idea.
Totally amazing!! So compact and easy to do. Thanks
Great idea and build Ana!
Thats a great project. Perfect for driving around with it
Definitely!
Great looking work bench
cute. good for the kiddie table at thanksgiving too! ;)
This is brilliant. Any chance you can make this to fold in half and put wheels on it. That would be even better!!!
Check out this plan www.ana-white.com/woodworking-projects/folding-workbench
Cut it in half, hinges Nd you have a suitcase table! Deffinitly going to make this. Thank you for the amazing video!
Great idea!!
Great video
Love the table! I’d use it for ⛺️ add moisture protectant to the legs or a boot of some sort perfect 👌
Would also be great for a laundry folding table.
thanks for using the p505 saw and p215 drill combo set i just bot at home depot for 99.00 for the build !
I found that at the corners of boxs if I bored a 3/8" hole from the end of my soft wood box joint and sank and glued a hardwood dowel that I could screw my fasteners into the corner could be tightened without stripping the screws.
You're a genius Ana...this is fabulous
Ms/Mrs Ana. I watched this video!
Then watched other videos
On portable work benches.
I must admit your bench design is superior .
I will be building one on my channel! Is that ok with you ?
Of course I will give you and your channel the credit it deserves.
nice job that solved a problem i was having with a project i was building thanks
Great, thanks for the visit!
I'm hoping to be able to start doing some woodworking and this looks like a great and useful beginner's project. I think I would add wheels so it was easier to move (just on one end I think) and some kind of a cover to keep the cats out of it would also be handy I think.
Outstanding! One of your best kid!!
I'm going to check those tools out this weekend but will have to see what's left after my son goes to LKQ 😏🤞
Great project. You are very inspiring. Thank you.
Fantastic. Thanks
Glad you liked it!
This is really fantastic! A nice project for my daughter and I.
Glad you like it, wonderful!
It's like a giant breakfast in bed tray
thanks for the video .
You're welcome!
Dang I needed this when I was living in a shoebox in LA! 🤣👍🏻
Uber cool. Thanks, Ana!
This would've been a perfect build for Pocket Hole Joinery . Nice Job Though.
Did you know that this is gonna be my DIY year!!!! You read my mind.. Luv ya Girl Friend!!!
Awesome! This workbench will really help, let's make it happen this year!
Great build. Love it.
Thank you!
Really, really creative idea - thanks so much for sharing!
Nice build! Gracias👍✌️😊🙏🏼
Excellent use Ana!
Nicely done.
Thanks!
Thank you
I love your videos! You are so inspiring with these projects!
Excelente gracias por el video y la idea.
LOVE THIS! Even my hubs said he’d help with this one! Would you please link your glasses and ear protection? I’d love to get a new set as well as one for my tween! 😊
That's a really cool and useful bench!
Glad you like it!
Love your videos and straightforward approach, Ana. Great little work bench. +1 for removing the battery before adjusting the blade depth -- great modeling of proper tool safety. One question: How did you determine where the holes in the sides of the top should be for the carriage bolts? That's the sort of calculating that often trips me up. Also, if you haven't seen it, check out Peter Millard's video on his ultralight portable work bench. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! Here is the free plan with bolt placement measurements ana-white.com/woodworking-projects/portable-workbench-woodshop-box
Awesome now I can store tools under the bed
Your miter saw was looking lonely over there. Nice vid!
Ana, you are the best.
My given name is Anna (old family name).
Love your red shoe laces.
You are awesome
Awesome Idea. Where can I send you pictures of the projects when I'm done.
Thanks! Just click “add a brag post” in the main menu
@@AnaWhiteDIY Awesome, thanks.
A very usable work bench with storage to boot....what will Ana come up with next!!
