Welcome to our Community Q&A page for Workbenches.

I have an iron vice and want to know how close to put it to the edge of the workbench. I know it needs room for the wood, but do not know where to put it.

Benches made of wood to hold grinders,vices.and any other related items---mitre saws, drill press, and various braces and molds or forms. thanks!

I am building a workbench. actually 2. But I was wondering what I should make my depth. I have my height and my length figured out one is around 45inches and the other around 32. And both with a height of 37. I want to put casters on them to make them movable and I don't want them to be too top heavy. Most standard benches are around 24 but that seems a little to small. I plan to use it to weld metal on as well as some woodworking. I want it as functional as it is rigid. Any suggestions or engineers that can answer my third grade question would have my thanks as well as my ear. I will edit if you need more info. Thanks for all your answers in advance!

It runs along the concrete wall and its a massive waste of space.The surface is 3.5 feet ground.It has no practical use.I'm thinking electric chainsaw. I have a lot of computer stuff around the area and it would be near impossible moving it all,so I want something that doesn't endanger things around it

I intend to have a sheet metal area for hammering etc but I cannot decide on the color/material for the general surface. Any ideas

I recently got into wood carving. I moved out of my family's house to my new apartment. I love the apartment - but unfortunately, my apartment doesn't have the convenience of having a garage with a good workbench. Basically, do you have any recommendations for a good workbench - preferably portable or compact - that could be used inside an apartment? I've been using my kitchen table with newspapers underneath my wood - but I'm afraid the table will get scratched (it's glass) if I don't get a better work area soon.

How would you draw a full and half wave rectifier in a program like multisim or electronic workbench? Bonus: What is used to smooth out the output.

Currently when I drop items inside my workbench in my Megaton house, they randomly drop around me instead of the top of the workbench.

you put like wood or whatever in it then spin a handle and tighten it into place. Whats that thing called?? THAAANK YOU! That was really bugging me. :)))

Ok, so I am a little unsure, but do you have to be aligned with the woodworkers guild? I cant seem to figure out how to use them. :(

I found the original one in a shop in Midway airport in Oct 05. It was lost and I would like to purchase another. Does anyone know where I could find one?

I want to paint some old metal tool boxes and don't really know anything about different types of paints like acrylic, etc... any suggestions would be very helpful.

I have a 2000 Ford Ranger, ext cab, step side, with a bed protector. I got a hard plastic tool box from Tractor Supply, and its not gonna go down in the bed without cutting the bed liner and I DONT wanna do that. So what I am gonna do is, raise the box up 6 inches, and bolt the back to the bed, and then add 2 6 inch pieces of 2x4 under each corner to the bottom of the bed. Will this work?

Been looking @ Wal-Mart - Home Depot - Lowes etc. It needs to be 96" / 8' long - Plastic is best, with the lid on the Top. Thanks for the Help !

I need to find out the name of a craft tool used for making shadow boxes. It looks like a quilling tool - size of a ballpoint pen with a curved, flat piece of metal where the nib should be. It's used to curl back the edges of pieces of paper or card in delicate crafts such as shadow boxing. Anyone know??

I am trying to build a workbench in my garage and I was wondering what dimensions worked for others that have built one. Thanks I need to know the height, width and depth. Thanks
