Achieve greater shop results in less time and with less effort by building this handsome and functional workbench. Styled with a European flair, it's almost a shame to hide the bench in your shop. Nonetheless, the work you'll produce with it is bound to impress everyone, including yourself.

With this design, we've accommodated for a number of woodworking tasks and have even included dog holes for hand planning. Sled feet for stability support the bench and the quarter-sawn top helps guard against warping and cupping. Also, the bench can be built to any height, and thus you can be certain that the hours spent working on it will be both comfortable and productive. Four drawers and a cupboard unit supply that extra storage you're probably in need of and there are accommodations for two or more vices.

The plans for this workbench come complete with materials list, a listing of tools required, a detailed cutting schedule, actual photos of the assembly process, and plenty of step-by-step instructions.

Finished, the workbench stands almost 84 inches wide, 27 inches deep and 38 inches high.
