Great job man. Definitely a very sturdy work bench. Good idea using the large square tube too. Loved the CAD at the start of the video. My CAD is normal a Ruler and Pencil, LOL. Thanks for bringing us along. All the best. Peter.
You have great fabrication concepts and skills, for SolidWorks or whichever CAD, I would highly recommend using fully symmetric models for sheets/plates/bars/tubes, etc. Not only will it save you serious time in 100+ part assemblies it will also pay you dividends in Finite Element Analysis (SolidWorks calls this Simulation, now, rather than COSMOS/Works, and previously COSMOS/M with the GeoSTAR interface). It also helps with moments of inertia, mass moments of inertia, etc. when calculating other parameters for design optimization.
Another thing you can do in the 2015+ (can't recall when they allowed for multi-body parts) you can un-check the "Merge" features option so you have your cut length and coping geometry while still building your "assembly" within a single part file.
Excellent job - what did you use for top plate thickness is it 1/4" ? and what was the tube thickness 1/8? What are you charging for workbenches? I will look for the rest of your videos..
Thank you! Yes, you are correct on the top plate thickness at 1/4". The 2" square tube thickness is 0.095" if I recall. You can find me on instagram and we can go over the details. The prices of steel are quite high right now. Thanks for watching!
Great looking table man! Love that welding table you have there too. Beefy!
Thank you! The 3ftx6ft welding table that I used to build these tables is for sale. I just built a 4ftx8ft, so time to sell the smaller one!

Thanks Peter!
I want to know the length and width and height if possible. Great video mate looking forward to your future videos. All really good keep at these.
Thank you! These workbenches were 36" tall, 10' long, 2' deep per the customer request.

Will do! Thanks for the tips!
@@KuehlEngineering absolutely! Anytime!
Nice man
