A solid, well-performing workbench is the cornerstone of any furniture maker’s shop. A properly designed bench is more than just a base with a beefy top. It’s a tool we ask a great deal of–from standing firm in the face of heavy stress from handplaning, to serving as a second, third, or fourth pair of hands in the form of vises. And since most woodworkers will most likely build only one serious workbench in their lifetime, design is of paramount importance. That’s why the editors of Fine Woodworking magazine rounded up their best bench designs and tips, and packaged them into one go-to guide.
Our Workbenches collection offers seven different designs–from super-simple, to positively pro, and offers tips on choosing and installing vises, how to rehab an old workbench, tool storage options, and more.
Catch every step of the action in crafting an heirloom-quality workbench of reclaimed chestnut and maple in this seven-part Video Workshop series.
