- A construction work bench is a sturdy table or platform used by construction professionals like Kevin for various tasks such as cutting, measuring, assembling and fabricating on projects. It provides a stable surface for woodworking, metalworking and other construction projects. Workbenches should be stocked with tools like vices, tool racks, implements, tool racks with tools and storage drawers to enhance productivity and fabrication. When considering a construction work bench, consider the materials it’s made from, its size and the specific tasks you need it for.
You got that right!
When I did they weren’t aloud in the shop much.
Thanks for watching!
This is a blueprint of an ideal shop set up!
Thank you!
You are making me have to up my game. I am organized but this is on another level. Lifetime of stocking it and layering.
Lifetime is a good analogy
Excellent looking shop. Great organization
Great video. Definitely utilizing all your space. Plus with all the stickers and different color scheme it looks very homey.
Thanks so much! 😊
Watched all your videos today. Looking forward to many more hopefully!

You are welcome - I sure will@@RidgleyContracting
I’m going to use the pvc for caulking storage. Like that your bench is like a tribute to others. I have the majority of my grandfathers tools. Gave my nephew the 7up case that was his main carry around with a lot of his newer tools. Hoped it would get him going if he decides to use his hands. Then I got the ones I knew he had early on and used which you could see have gotten him out of a jam. Plus all his carving tools. Which I have slowly been trying to teach my eight year old daughter. Got to pass on the information so it doesn’t get lost. Plus she will get everything I have so hope she can use it.
Thank you!
I feel that when someone aspires to work with their hands that their workbench ( be it fancy, custom or something as simple as a board on a couple of saw horses ) is a symbol of desire to create things.
I very much agree that children need to taught skills while there’s still a few of us left to teach them.
Thanks again and keep watching.
I almost forgot , does the F350 you’re working on have a 7.3 ?
I had a 97 and have a few filters and such laying around the shop.
@@RidgleyContracting gas 460. Just got the fender for it yesterday day. I have about a month before it snows. Want to put on the cab and put on the wheel lift on before the snow.
I love "Shop Tours". For someone like me, I do mostly repair work, automotive, small engine etc, to home remodeling stuff. So the variety of equipment and supplies i keep is vast and organization is a nightmare. But 9 years ago I got my first "man cave", and there is just nothing like it. 1200 sq foot of heaven, that i spend more time arranging and rearranging than I do anything else. I have learned a lot. for example, I used to think that having all my wrenches etc up on pegboard would be cool. But I realized I hated it and prefer all my tools in tool boxes. Labeling storage containers, SUUUPER important. I have 2 "service" carts that I use every day. The most underrated things i see in shops all the time are 2 things. First, people will build 70K metal buildings, have 15K in spray foam or other insulation put in then refuse to put up some 4x8 sheets from floor, up 8 feet to protect it, and every time, within a year the lower part of the insulation is just destroyed and filthy, and the other is VERTICAL STORAGE. I don't care how much space you THINK you have, always go UP with long, bulky and long term storage. But something I never seen, was your Caulk storage idea. I love it. And of course I have PVS laying around so guess what I will be doing? lol. Thanks for the ideas. Sadly, I have no friends or family to leave everythign I have behind, I often wonder what will happen to my stuff when I pass or Jesus returns.
ohh and an Anvil, I need a Anvil. But dang things are so expensive. Being retired, things can be a tricky saving up for.
Thank you very much for your comment and for watching!
I agree I do love organizing and reorganizing as much as I do actually doing stuff. It’s ever and forever evolving. Be sure to check out the rest of the channel. There are lots of ideas in my other videos, with new storage ideas to come after all I’ve still got room on the ceiling! Thanks again and if you haven’t already, consider subscribing.also my dad found the anvil before they became sought after. Every farm auction listing now a days will highlight if there is an anvil in the sale.
Another great video. Keep up the great work!
Thank you!
@@RidgleyContracting will you ever take the camera with you to a job site?
Yes
It’s just that some people aren’t to warm to being filmed.
Going to film something soon !
Very cool.
Thanks for posting. Look forward to the excavator job.
In case you’re not already a follower - Have you seen the videos of ‘Cutting Edge Engineering’ in Australia. He runs a shop doing lots of work on excavators and mining plant. He reminds me of a - with all due respect - younger version of you. Very proper, well organized and high quality work
Thank you for watching.
I take that with the greatest of respect, hell I used to be a younger version of me!
I’ll have to check cutting edge engineering out.
Thanks again and I hope you’ll subscribe!
Be patient with my videos, my years of experience don’t include much filming or editing.
But you only get experience in life by doing and trying. Hopefully I’ll get it figured out.
Question what is the gage of the work bench top… and love the videos keep up the good work
I lost the post on my end
Thank you for watching
The top is 1/4” plate with plywood underneath to deaden the sound
Thank you and keep watching
