Expandable Shop Worktable
This easy-to-build workstation quickly expands to support full sheets of plywood.
Most of the time, this versatile worktable serves as a compact workbench for all kinds of tasks. But pull-out extensions expand the table to support a full sheet of plywood when you need to break sheets down into more manageable pieces. The top is sacrificial and designed to be replaced as necessary. T-track on each extension provide clamping options.

Weekend Workbench
Some construction lumber and a weekend's worth of work can produce the most used tool in the shop... a workbench.
Imperial Plans
The United States Customary System of Units (USCS or USC), more commonly referred to as the English or Imperial system, is the standard set of units for our plans. It uses inches and feet for measurement. This is the one you probably want if you are in the United States, and it is the one we have traditionally offered on this website.
Metric Plans
The International System of Units (SI), more commonly referred to as the metric system, is the alternative set of units that we have available for some of our plans. It uses millimeters, centimeters, and meters for measurement. This is the one you probably want if you are outside the United States. These plans are provided by our business partner, Australian Woodsmith, and are based on the original Woodsmith plan. However, dimensions and other elements of the plan may vary between the metric and standard versions. Be sure to double-check the plan before building.
Premium Plans
All of the information that you need to build our plans can be found in the standard plan. However, if you want even more granular detail to make your job easier, you should consider our premium plans. These come with additional shop diagrams that we drew when creating the prototypes. Shop drawings are not available for every plan.
