Building a Kreg Foreman Universal Workbench

- The Kreg Foreman Universal Workbench was designed specifically to be able to move the Foreman around in my shop to utilize my shop space.
I put cabinets into the Universal Steel Stand for tools and put a top with enough overhang to double as a work surface when I'm not using the Kreg Foreman
A BIG thank you to Kreg Tools for sending me their products to make this video!
I think the workbench turned out awesome, let me know what you think!
Enjoy

Knotty Dog. Just want to say, "FANTASTIC CABINET"! In the process of building my "DREAM SHOP". My patience really paid off when finding you build and assembly of you KREGG FOREMAN CABINET, Sweet. Could you give me a little in-site to your build? Would really appreciate it. Watched it a few times and really get the gist of what you did. Just wanted if you could share the build Plans and materials! Have a bunch of Baltic Birch in the rack!
Great video and just what the doctor ordered! Just retired as a veteran 30-year Executive Chef and High School Varsity Swim Coach! Actually, swam all the same events Michael Phelps swam in his career. Just a little slower now at 67 young years!
All my very best,
Bill "COACH Layton
Your work is the most efficient I have seen. Quality and speed. Something to strive for.
THANKS ! I'll be over tomorrow around 9 to pick it up. 😎
The Poplar Shop haha come on over!
To the 4 that gave this video a thumbs down.... I’ve got five fingers that want to say something to your face.
Knotty Dog... your videos are therapeutic and relaxing to watch. Your precision and attention to detail is admirable.
HARDCORTES ! Thank you for the kind words!
Do you have the plans for this build available for others to purchase/download? Thank you! Awesome build! Could you provide a list of the tools employed for all the details of the build? Immensely impressive-- nice project! Love the spray paint template for the peg board-- what did you use to create/cut the template?
Great design and colors. Video is also great. Thank you for sharing.
Interesting drawer construction.
Great Job 😉👍🏽📐🔨🪚 Nicely Done

Looks like a nice addition to the shop!
A proper craftsman, great job dude 👌
Dude, amazing build! Kreg should be proud that their name is on this one!
Penalty Box Woodshop thanks man! I’m pretty excited for this new workstation!
Love these Kreg bench build videos man. Format is great too. You should get some high bay UFO style LED lights for the shop. I installed some and the light is fantastic!
Awesome job! Love the look and the pullouts are perfect! Well done man.
CReeves Makes thanks! I’m pretty excited about this project. I saw your set up and thought I needed something similar!

Awesome build Oscar!
Awesome!
Very nice! I just got my Kreg Forman and looking for ideas. I may use some of yours if that’s ok
Nice vid. Nice build. Nice tools. You have a new follower.
Nice build and nice video! I wish I did enough pocket hole work to justify the Foreman. Keep at it!
CCS and Sons Workshop thanks! I haven’t had this new addition for very long but I’m stoked to have it!
Awesome
Awesome video man.. 👍👍
What size universal workbench did you use? Everything you make looks awesome and very well thought out! Happy I came across your channel.
S Biswas 20x44
1st time I've seen drawers built in that sequence. And the center drawer, almost useless now?
Project looks really cool though.
Yeah it was a quick way to ensure they lined up. Not bad for shop drawers but I wouldn’t recommend for client work.
The bottom drawer works ok, I only store stuff I don’t use very often.
Great job on use of Kreg workbench! What is the peg board attached to? Noticed it was sitting inside the metal frame.
Right on! Unrelated.... how can I get some of those custom systainer latch stickers?
SWEET...!!!!
Really nice work station. Why didn't you use a larger 28x44 table so the foreman didn't stick out as far?
Thanks
You could use the 28x44 bench if you wanted to, I went with the 20 x44 because I had a few cut offs with the rough widths of the cabinets below. I wanted to use from my scrap pile plus I had the extra drawer slides from the tool wall videos I did. I worked backwards on this one so I didn’t have to spend much on the project. Hope that makes sense! Thanks for watching!
Good idea , well done . Please lose the elevator music .
Just curious, how come you didn’t use the 28”x44” universal bench? That way it wouldn’t stick out in the front, but maybe you want it to? Awesome build!
Because at the time I didn’t have much floor space to dedicate to just one footprint. And this would be easier to move around in a smaller shop. Since then I’ve upgraded to a commercial building and I still feel like this is a perfect size to move around when needed.
@@KnottyDogWoodshop cool. Thanks for the reply!
Is there a reason why you the kreg foreman is projecting out the front instead of the rear? It seems like the space behind the fence on the foreman is useless anyways so wouldn't it be better to have the front more flush and hang the ass of the forman out the back more? Or is there something Im not thinking of? Im jelly of that conturo, im getting tired of speed tape and irons :(
Great build! I just wish the video had more detail and explanation. No dimensions of anything, no products listed, too much music
You can go on the buildsomething website from Kreg and look up foreman cart
is there any plans and cut list for this.
Yes they are on the buildsomething.com website that Kreg offers
One more question. how do you find the stability with the top front table brace absent?
It works well, I secured the top through the blue supports on the side and back and the top was also secured with the cabinet going up. So it’s still 3 points of contact on the top being secured. Do you have an Instagram page?
@@KnottyDogWoodshop no Instagram page. I’m kind of at a standstill since Krefeld is out of stock of these
What did you do for the dust collection port?
Did you ultimately put any finish on this?
Yes I did, something I had laying around in the shop
@@KnottyDogWoodshop Am I correct that the back can be any dimension thickness, and just attaches to the stiles and base? I dont see it covered in the article or video
Hello do you have a plan for the drawers.
No I do not.
What type of plywood?
Fancy tools
Welp. This was a reminder how bad my tools are. 😁
carney woodworks it took me a while to build up the tools I have now
