I have to say based on the editing, production quality, build, humor and even free plans (they're not terrible) you are awesome and TBH I thought I was watching videos from a large full time TH-cam woodworking channel. I've watched all four videos twice as I am in the process of rebuilding my bench in a similar manner. Keep up the amazing work, looking forward to your next build!
not gonna lie, had I not already hit subscribe about 5 mins in.. I def would have when you mentioned your Sponsors.. I actually spat out the Coke I was drinking at that part.. Keep up the great work..
After watching literally hours worth of videos on multi tool integrated work benches, and not being able to settle on a particular design because of size or features, your design finally came to save me from the progress-crippling analysis paralysis I was experiencing. I have the same space constraints you have in a two car garage shared with bikes, garden tools, and anything my wife no longer wants in the house but is too nice to throw away. I really like how your design makes the most of all the workbench areas and provides the needed flexibility to functionally accommodate those tools that are not used very often. Thank you so much for documenting your project in your video series and well written plans.
Awesome gutierrem, very kind of you to say so. There're so many ways to approach a bench and it can be totally paralyzing with all the options. There's not really a right answer so much as what will work best for you. Mine is still going really strong for me; pretty solid and I don't see myself changing much in the future until I (maybe one day) get more space. Then I'd like to have the miter saw separate (for better dust collection) but other than that I dig how it all functions together. Good luck, I hope you can make it work for you.
I've been researching work benches for days, and this is by far the best thing I've seen. The instructions are amazing, great job, can't wait to see more content!!
Rarely does this happen, but the TH-cam algorithm has clearly failed. Given my history, I can't believe that it took 2 YEARS for TH-cam to suggest this for me. This is absolutely PERFECT for what I need. Bigger than a microshop, but not as big as a cabinet saw, and I can still park the car in there. Thank you!!
Down with the algorithm! :). Glad you found it, may it bring you more joy than it does tears. just kidding, it's not That hard to build. Just check your measurements as you go and in no time at all you've have a little Octopus to call your own.
Thanks LTSBR, that's awesome to hear. When you've got little space you gotta get creative with it. I'm literally trying to make as small a stand as possible for a jointer and a planer right now and it is a real puzzle, let me tell you. :)
Found your site through Shop Nation. I’m a retired General Contractor and cabinet maker with 50 years’ experience. I think you’re doing a great job. Your personality is great. Keep up the good work.
This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for. Just ordered my table saw and mitre saw and my space is super limited in my garage. Looking forward to building this along with you! Awesome video....
Love it Willie! Let me know if you run into any issues and I'm happy to try and help. I can say at this point that I know some people have actually pulled it off so it Is doable. Good luck!
On my TH-cam rabbit warren on work benches at 2 am in the morning I stumbled on this series. Firstly, well done sir, you brought a smile to my face with your humor. More importantly with your plans and ideas I now have new project to take up the next few weeks of my life :). Thanks Jordan for putting the videos and plans out there.
Very kind of you Rob. I'll be literally nodding off at my computer trying to do work or edit or something, and then it's "okay, better go to bed", and then it's "Wait, Four Eyes just put out a new video, I should watch this" and then it's "Oh my god, I just watched TH-cam for two hours and now it's 3am and the morning is going to suck, but also that fourth video gave me a good idea, so...". I am no stranger to the 2am Rabbit Hole.
My shop cabinets are the only real cabinets I've ever made and I'm really happy with them. The face frames kind of suck, but the cabinets themselves are solid, and for shop furniture that's the important part!
Awesome, thank you! Travis @ Shop Nation put a big shout out to a few great resources, you were one of them. Thanks for using "regular" tools and nothing super crazy or expensive. I've built a whole store 2k sqft shelving (125 sheets 4x8 white birch) and now find myself needing a "temp" set up since we have 2 cars that live in my shop too, normally, here in winterland Wisconsin.
@@withJordanFrank Looking forward to it! I keep dreaming of 2x4' sections all on castors that can go against the walls, with various flip up/downs such as planers, or other items. Though not much for the woodworkers as an all around husband/home owner I need to get a multi-vice for holding and pounding some serious metal or the like. I will watch for more of your videos. Thanks for the time and effort you put into this, and also sharing your plans. I need to get onto doing more sketchups vs straight paper and pencil. That way I can share with others, and also have more cut sheets for time savings. keep it up!
gotta say I love the puns. as well as the general humor that the video is shot with. good call with calling out your own oversights and mistakes. I love the bench. EEEEEcellent.
Came from Shop Nation and was not disappointed! The adjustable utility shelf is what really got me excited. I have wanted a modular-ish system to simplify using various tools on my bench. Clamping down a Kreg jig isn't that fun or reliable. A utility "side-car" like this makes it possible with many other tools as well. I'll be finding a way to do this. Thanks!
Я искал себе мультиинструментальный рабочий стол. пересмотрел уйму видео. Но понравился мне только проект Jordan Frank. Благодаря его идеям, я уже представляю, каким будет мой рабочий стол. Спасибо Jordan! Я поставил тебе лайк и непременно воспользовался твоим планом, который ты любезно предоставил. I was looking for a multi-tool desktop. watched a lot of videos. But I only liked the Jordan Frank project. Thanks to his ideas, I already imagine what my desktop will be like. Thanks Jordan! I gave you a like and I certainly used your plan, which you kindly provided.👍
That's all you can do my friend... little bits at a time. That's advice that floats around and I think is solid: buy the tool you need for the project at hand, and then slowly your shop will grow as your skills develop. No need to rush out and get crazy. A bench like this you can totally do in parts; the basic setup is not too difficult, then you can add shelves, doors, router spot, etc down the road as needed.
You are so awesome good family man too Thanks for the videos ,full Of information and the free plan too You have a nice kids wanna be like you and helping too
I think you are being extremely modest about your plans, they are bloody excellent. A great bench. Lots of food for thought. I'm doing a rework of my shop and want the flexibility of a multiple tooled bench. Really enjoyed the videos.
Travis at Shop Nation sent me!! Great content so far, although I still need to watch the next three videos, so the jury may still be out! LOL I love the Detroit shirt! I am a Michigan native, but currently live in Wyoming now. I love the potential future sponsors too. *84 Tigers Michigan State University and the TRUE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN* Love you sense of humor!!!!! BTW I own the same mitre saw and also the Wen planer!!
I have watched your videos many times planning to build this bench. I printed your plans-they are amazing- and just finished the basic construction step. Now on to the fun parts. Thank you for all the work creating the videos and the plans
Thanks David, it is a real honor to me that people have actually built this thing. I appreciate you letting me know, and please reach out if there's anything I can clarify or whatnot (I definitely forgot the step where you attach the wheels - so when you notice some wheels on it in the plans you just go ahead and put those bad boys on)
Yeah not gonna lie... your humor is my humor! I laughed out loud several times! Great design, did not check out the plans. - great overall flow - fun sound effects with good timing - good music choice I subbed because of this vid. Verry enjoyable. Kind regards from Belgium!
Thanks for this awesome idea! I am brand new, and this is my first build, and it's been a lot of fun. I thought I'd enter the race for "dumbest mistake ever" so... I just finished basic construction and went to put my saw in it's place. It seemed too big. Then I realized I have the 7491. That was a whole lot of effort to end up in this spot, but I learned a ton along the way! Just wanted to share my little mishap in case you get a kick out of it like my wife did! Thanks agin!
Oh Max, that's both hilarious and also hilarious. We've all been there, and that is definitely not the dumbest mistake ever. But it is pretty dumb. Welcome to woodworking. :). Seriously though, were you able to adjust to get it to work?
@@withJordanFrank Haha yes, I'm learning that this is all part of the process. Something about measure twice cut once? Live and learn. Honestly, I haven't figured an easy way to adjust... any recommendations? I'd really appreciate it!
with Jordan Frank I’ve watched a ton of woodworking videos over the last few weeks and found some really great stuff. Yours are among the best not only for unique ideas but instructional content. Thank you for sharing your talents.
I know this is 3 years old man.. I'm going to have to give this a go. I finally built a crappy temporary 2'x4' bench on casters just to get off my hands and knees. looking forward to building this.
The good news is mine is still holding up perfectly fine 3 years later, except for my sad octopus sticker which has peeled half off. This tragedy aside it is a solid bench, and I hope you're able to make one for yourself. Good luck, yell if you need me.
This Jordan Frank project brought to you by Beer. Beer: Giving people great ideas and courage to follow through with them since 1840! Don't let haters tell you your ideas are crazy and/or illegal. Let Beer do the talkin'!
Wow! Described me PERFECTLY. Only fact that's different is I threw the last women out and now my shop is the first floor of my house. Life has been amazing ever since!
Well I was looking at two big empty rooms with nothing but a couch and chair and table and television. So a spare bedroom became the living room and moved in the tools. Granted I can't build a rowboat and get it out of the house. A kayak on the other hand.............
That's very kind of you, the voice can often lend a little drama to an otherwise boring build. And unless I'm mistaken You know drama, and might be a gal, and are born in September of 2012, and I just stole all your passwords. :)
Another Shop Nation referral here. I also built a donkey from the magazine plans. As a beginning workbench it was ok but like you my needs outgrew it. It has also gone one to another owner.
@@withJordanFrank The table went intact to its new owner. I do like the idea of how the shelf stored away. My current shop space is so limited I haven't replaced the table.
just found the channel today... i want more! relatable, funny, and make it feel do-able even for a straight noob like me. Hope you keep the channel going!
Jordan, thank you so much for the free plans and all of the hard work you put into this. I made the bench and really happy with the results. Due to the size of my tools I made some slight design adjustments. Thanks again!
Jordan, I built this last summer and have gotten so much use out of it. It is used in just about every project of mine. I have received so many compliments about it. I did make some changes by adding a black formica top and several drawers. I haven't given it a name or a logo, but since it's mostly a much darker version of yours, maybe "Evil Twin?" Seriously, thank you for such amazingly detailed instructions!
That, my friend, is a lovely thing to hear. Thank you! I'm glad to have helped spawn what sounds like a truly helpful bit of evil, it sounds very sexy.
Your plans are amazing. What a great concept. I wish I had seen your compact workbench before I spent all of the time and money on a shop that is hard to use. I may be going through a major renovation in y garage/workshop.
Loving the build, but I have always preferred the "normal" shops sounds like the background music. Organ music is something my grandmother listened to and even that was limited to Sunday service.
Such as the many comments below, I saw your channel suggested on Shop Nation, and I'm glad Travis gave it a mention...I'm in the process of building a similar bench, so am 'borrowing' some of your ideas to refine mine....dammit, wish I'd found this channel sooner, would have built more along the lines of the Octopus'....but that hindsight in hindsight....love the channel, have subscribed and am looking forward to more of your content....going to watch parts 2, 3 & 4 now...and will be watching out for what I'm sure will be many many more posts 😁😁😁😁. Cheers from Aus
Finally started building mine today! I’m going to have to modify it a little as my table saw is an old craftsman with a rear-mounted motor, but I think it will work. I’ll just lose past of the top shelf behind it for now. Thanks for the great plans and videos.
Awesome msbarrett74, i love it. Yeah, either lost part of the top shelf or expand the base. Don't forget to adjust the part the saw sits on for the correct height (so it's flush with the work surface once it's all put together). Good luck!!
A Dad who get's his apprentices involved in the process speaks volumes! Well done! Semper Fi, Combat Marine
Always glad to see a Brother we are always around Semper Fidelis Combat Action as well

I think this is the design' I've been looking for.

Excellent work. Superb generosity. Thank you.
Great video and you had me cracking up throughout…Keep up the good work…
Too kind! I just dropped a new build series for a cool gaming table I made. Real happy with it, give it a look if you’re so inclined
Love your humor, also great bench!

On board. Travis is a good guy.
Been looking for a narrow bench with fold up/down sides for a while now. This looks great!!!
Thank you! Been sturdy for me for years now, no regrets. If it fits your space this is a good one
Thanks! Looks really good. I will have fun building this bench.🥸🥸🥸🥸
Thank you for the excellent plans!
Thanks Michel, I hope they serve you well!
Same here. Keep adding more great content!
This was a great video! Dad jokes on point!!
Thank you! What I lack in skill I make up for in Dad jokes.
Over from Shop Nation as well... Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
Endorsement by Travis is golden! Hope to leverage your work.
I bought a 12 x 28 foot portable building, I need compact tool cabinets. Cheap to build is a bonus
My shop cabinets are the only real cabinets I've ever made and I'm really happy with them. The face frames kind of suck, but the cabinets themselves are solid, and for shop furniture that's the important part!
Wish I would have seen your video 2 weeks ago....great stuff man!
Thanks Mike! What happened two weeks ago? Does it involve a stolen car and two cactuses? Or are we just talking about woodworking?

Jordan, I built this last summer and have gotten so much use out of it. It is used in just about every project of mine. I have received so many compliments about it. I did make some changes by adding a black formica top and several drawers. I haven't given it a name or a logo, but since it's mostly a much darker version of yours, maybe "Evil Twin?" Seriously, thank you for such amazingly detailed instructions!
That, my friend, is a lovely thing to hear. Thank you! I'm glad to have helped spawn what sounds like a truly helpful bit of evil, it sounds very sexy.
Thanks! just what I was looking for. And your plans are great. Thanks again
Thanks David, I appreciate it!
Your plans are amazing. What a great concept. I wish I had seen your compact workbench before I spent all of the time and money on a shop that is hard to use. I may be going through a major renovation in y garage/workshop.
David, truly touched by all your nice compliments, thank you!
a tip : watch movies at Flixzone. I've been using them for watching loads of movies lately.
@Ryland Trenton Yea, have been watching on Flixzone for months myself :)
Pretty nice ideas!
Thanks Heiko!
Loving the build, but I have always preferred the "normal" shops sounds like the background music. Organ music is something my grandmother listened to and even that was limited to Sunday service.
Fantastic video (series) and thank you for the *free* plans. The dad jokes were free, too, which I appreciate. Setting about making this for my shop.
Awesome Miles, thank you, mighty kind of you. Good luck on the build!
I'd like to use this opportunity to say thank you for all my sponsors over the years [mom & dad] 😂Subscribed!
Agreed, I totally pissed myself when I read that.
Liked and subscribed
Great video and great commentary throughout, looking for to the next video
Such as the many comments below, I saw your channel suggested on Shop Nation, and I'm glad Travis gave it a mention...I'm in the process of building a similar bench, so am 'borrowing' some of your ideas to refine mine....dammit, wish I'd found this channel sooner, would have built more along the lines of the Octopus'....but that hindsight in hindsight....love the channel, have subscribed and am looking forward to more of your content....going to watch parts 2, 3 & 4 now...and will be watching out for what I'm sure will be many many more posts 😁😁😁😁.
Cheers from Aus
An awesome sense of humour, a woodworker, AND a Laphroaig fan? Subscribed!
Thanks JAFO! Laphroaig: for people who love the taste of a campfire in their mouth. And I do.
Finally started building mine today! I’m going to have to modify it a little as my table saw is an old craftsman with a rear-mounted motor, but I think it will work. I’ll just lose past of the top shelf behind it for now. Thanks for the great plans and videos.
Awesome msbarrett74, i love it. Yeah, either lost part of the top shelf or expand the base. Don't forget to adjust the part the saw sits on for the correct height (so it's flush with the work surface once it's all put together). Good luck!!
@@withJordanFrank yeah, my old craftsman appears to measure the same height as your dewalt, but I’ll double check before anything is permanent.
I love you humor!
You where suggested by Shop Nation. Really enjoyed your creativity and humor, lets see how far you go. Good Luck.
