Pat and Jodi show how to build two workbenches--large and small. They start by cutting out the pieces for the work bench. Then they start assembly on the frame. They assemble the drawers and face frame and then attach the face frame.
Pat gives some tips on using a biscuit joiner. Then, he and Jodi install the drawers and Pat gives some organizational tips. Pat and Jodi finish up the first workbench by putting on the top, adding some trim, and sanding. Then they add the hardware and stain the wood.
