Come along on Phil's journey to build a new workbench for his own shop. He's kicking off this adventure by building a sturdy cabinet base. Just about every woodworker would like to build a workbench like this one. But a lot of them might be a little intimidated about building what looks like a complicated project. But you don’t have to worry — this design features simple solutions that make building the bench manageable.

This workbench has it all — classic looks, plenty of storage, plus a top and vises able to handle the most demanding tasks.
