I think i will also add 1 off to the right of the table so that the entire built table footprint is 4 wide.
Woodworking table dimensions. The standard height of 34 matches most tablesaw heights allowing the workbench to double as an outfeed support. It almost seems funny how i am building a new assembly table and outfeed table at the same time you are but good timing none the less. Many hand tool woodworkers though prefer a bench 1 or 2 inches lower allowing more leverage for hand plane and chisel use. I will probably make a table that just flips up that will add about 2 of depth.
A tall workbench is good for detailed work cutting joinery and for power tool use. Understanding wood shrinkage and learning to predict wood movement by species are key to making furniture that will stand the test of time and climate. It looks like a good size to build. Here s another free farmhouse table plan this one from diy projects with pete.
The table top for this particular table is 87 inches long and 46 inches wide. I m just making that leap to woodworking full time gulp and setting up my shop a little better. I like this plan because not only are there lots of pictures and notes but an instructional video is also available. This will allow me to cut through 4 lengths of plywood much more manageable than a full sheet without fear of it falling off the edge.
