Im ditching this old metal deck that I got free back in 1999

It was great for what I needed at the time, but I want deeper drawers and little custom aspect to what I need.

 

I’ve been tempted by the mobile benches from husky and Milwaukee but, dang they are expensive and fall short of what I need.

 

2×4 construction, I will dado my partitions, use full X guides on the drawers. Possibly glue up a top maybe not see how the budget is.

@Tx_woodworker will you include any original/innovative features to your bench?

I’ll show pictures once I start, at work sometimes we build inset cabinets with drawers, not sure if I’ll go that route possibly make the drawers dovetail. Lot of ways I can go.

I got delayed, neighbor had 3 broken drawers to repair and another neighbor wants their deck replaced.

I’m the neighborhood handyman.

I got my plans from the New Yankee Workshop, however I put wheels on it so I can move it around my garage and out side.   It works very well for the projects I do.
