DIY Plan for building a storage shelf with a workbench. The shelf combines storage with a solid and stable workbench, making it a practical addition to a garage, basement, or workshop. A dedicated workbench significantly simplifies everyday tasks, whether it involves minor repairs, hobby projects, or having an organized space for tools and ongoing projects. Avoiding the need to improvise a workspace and instead having a stable bench at the right height makes both the work easier and the results better.
The construction is built with the same robust frame of dimensional lumber and plywood found in Egenbyggt’s other storage shelves in the series, which means that the shelf with the workbench fits naturally with them. The tabletop is designed to withstand the stresses of active use, and the entire construction is thoughtfully designed to provide stability even when the bench is used vigorously.
The digital DIY Plan is delivered as a PDF file and includes complete drawings, a detailed shopping list with all the materials you need, cutting and sawing instructions, as well as a step-by-step assembly guide that walks you through the entire building project. The file can be downloaded immediately after purchase. The difficulty level is easy, and the estimated building time is four to six hours, making this an accessible building project that even a beginner can complete with good results.

Good drawing, easy to understand. However, I used 45×70 instead of 45×90. Didn’t have such high load requirements and saved some money that way.
