Hook

A small-garage bench that works like a big one: a laminated double-thickness top, three real drawers where your right hand expects them, and an open bay with a shelf where the shop vac lives. The drawer math is done for both widths — drawer boxes are sized from the measured opening, with the formula printed in the plan so the drawers fit the bench you actually built.

Specs

Finished sizes: 60 × 24 × 36 in · 48 × 24 × 36 in (W × D × H)

Plan length: 19 pages (US Letter), imperial + metric throughout

Top: two laminated layers of ¾ in plywood

Storage: 3-drawer bank on the right half (¾ in overlay fronts at 7-9/16 in pitch fill the 22¾ in opening exactly; ½ in drawer bottoms) + open shelf on the left half at 12 in

Frame: 2×4 leg and end frames

Sheet goods: 2 × ¾ in plywood sheets + 1 × ½ in plywood sheet (either width)

Estimated material cost (computed by the plan engine): $266.50 — the same for both widths; the 48 in rails nest onto the same board count, and the plan's board layouts show it

Difficulty: Intermediate · Build time: 1 weekend

FAQ

Is this a physical product? No — it's an instant digital download: the plan PDF plus DXF and SVG cutting files.

Why does the 48 in bench cost the same to build as the 60 in? Because the lumber packer fits the shorter rails onto the same number of boards. It's verified in the plan's board layouts, not a typo.

Are the drawers on slides? Yes — the hardware list specs the slides, and the drawer boxes are sized from your measured opening using the printed formula.

Do I need a CNC? No — it's a circular-saw build. CNC files are included free, grouped by actual thickness.

What if the files don't open or arrive damaged? Files faulty or corrupted? Free replacement within 7 days.
