Simple Workbench Plans (DIY)

Writer Isabella Bartlett

Introduction

Use this simple workbench plan to build a sturdy, tough workbench that'll last for decades. It has drawers and shelves for tool storage. It's inexpensive. And even a novice can build it in one day.

Does your current workbench consist of two sawhorses and an old door slab? It’s time for an upgrade! There are hundreds of workbench plans out there, but not many of them call for plywood. Plywood makes a flat, stable work surface, and it doesn’t need to be clamped, glued or planed. And it can easily be replaced if it gets too beaten up after years of abuse.

You get a workbench plan that’s:

    • Simple enough to build on a Saturday
    • Easy enough for a beginner
    • Strong enough to hold a V-8
    • Tough enough to last a lifetime
