Hi all.
Forgive me if this question is completely stupid (I’m just coming out of the haze of baby #2). I want to start the workbench project, and I’ve found the series of videos on Youtube, which I watched a couple of years ago, but I can’t find a materials list.
Am I missing something really obvious? Do I just have to re-watch the videos and put together the list that way?
Any help appreciated. TIA.
Hi Doc, I added my timber cutting list, as I bought my lumber here in Germany. Be aware thats in metric, it was pre planed spruce and it´s for the kind of bench that has only one benchtop and behind that a tool well. Also the width of the bearer was not wide enough, so you have to add approx. 1 1/2″ to that.
Regards,
Stefan

I agree 2 X 4’s is all you need to make this bench.Just square all 4 sides with plane and glue together, make it any size you want. For the legs I glued up ( 2 ) 2 X 4’s and the apron’s I glued up ( 3 ) 2 X 4’s on edge you could go 4 if you like.
It was a fun project and I absoulutley love the bench and the 38″ height is perfect for me, no crouching over my work which hurts my back.
