* 2 @ 68" x 3" - Upper Rails * 2 @ 63" x 3" - Lower Rails *
4@ 32" x 4-1/2" - Legs * 4@ 32" x 3" - Stretchers * optional:
2 sheets 3/4" plywood
Start by making a 2-1/4" long x 1-1/2" tenon on one end of each
leg. Make the same size tenon on both ends of the stretcher
pieces and the lower rails.
Using an 1-1/2" forsner bit, drill the holes in the upper rails,
2-1/2" from the ends. Both holes must be in line with each
other. Drill the holes 1-1/2" deep.
Measure and mark the legs 8-1/2" from the bottom for the lower
rails and the stretchers. These holes are at 90 to each other.
Drill another set of holes 8-1/2" from the top for the upper set
of stretchers.
Dry fit everything together to make sure it all fits.
Disassemble pieces and start to glue the workbench together
using clamps to ensure a tight joint.
After glue has set up use a block plane to flatten the top edge
of the upper rails to accept the top.
