Hi, I'm a beginner and was good at woodworking in school, but unfortunately moved to a school without a shop when I was 15. Since then I have been pretty crafty and built and made all sorts of things, but never had the space for a shop....until now! While I'm still pretty limited in terms of budget, I have a nice space and some tools. Main ones being circular saw and a drill. I can afford to buy some more hand tools but not a table saw quite yet. I want to eventually build some furniture (like picrel, it's made from acacia wdyt?), but first I suppose I need to build a workbench. Any ideas on what someone in my situation could build?
>>29459882 sawhorses and a scrap of plywood is the baselinei had a benchtop i built years ago gluelammed from pallet boards. it was like 3-1/2" thick and 30x120. id just grabbed pallets on my way home and taken the top boards on edge and bumped them with the da and glued it up with titebond. weighed a fucking ton and i finally got sick of moving it and threw it on the burn pile. total cost was basically just a bottle of glue and a month of free time pulling nails
>>2945988It depends on your space, budget, and how you intend to use it. I would look back on the benches you used to use and try to figure out how to fit as much of that functionality into your work space as possible. >>2945990I'm currently using two stackable sawhorses I made out of extra 2x4s with a a janky table top made of pallet boards as one of my benches.
