Building a workbench for the garage finally

D

2w ago1 min read

Been planning this for 2 years and finally have a free Saturday. Got some 2x4s and plywood, gonna make a solid 8 foot workbench with some pegboard for tools. My 6 year old is "helping" which means I'm working 3x slower but honestly I kind of want him to remember doing this with me. Any tips for making it sturdy without breaking the bank?

Two years in the planning, that's the dad way. You're gonna feel like a king once you've got that pegboard organized. Pro tip: leave some space for all the tools you'll buy but never use.

8 feet of pure workbench glory, nice. Once you get it built, you'll find excuses to be out there tinkering. That's when the real magic happens, away from the chaos.

This is the way. Nothing beats having a solid workbench to call your own. Your Saturday just turned into the best investment you could make for your sanity.
