Heavy-Duty Plank Workbench

A basic, stable workbench is a must for every shop. Building this bench won’t break the bank, either.

This bench you see here is strong enough for any task you can throw at it and will last for generations. It can really take a beating. But the best part is, you can build it in a weekend using readily available construction-grade lumber. And the woodworking couldn't be simpler. The base assembly involves a few lag screws. The top planks are held with washer-head screws. And in the end, you'll have a bench that lasts for decades.
