Torsion Boxes Overrated? – My New BIG Assembly Table

This is my new assembly table. Made from construction grade 2×4’s, 2×6’s, plywood, and laminate. If you want to save some extra money, you can make the top from a sheet of melamine and end up with he same spill-proof surface. The table features a bunch of storage with the option to customize it however you like.

While I played a big role in popularizing torsion boxes with my early videos, I’ve come to the conclusion that they’re overkill for woodworkers. So I’m keeping mine simple.

  1. Now who wouldn't want a bench with storage, enough to fit a few Cremonas!?!

  2. Excellent build! Could you two at least wear different colored sweat shirts so we know whose ass is staring back at us?!?! Good work, guys! Exceptionally nice bed in the Guild, too! Really nice! Thanks!

  3. But Marc, you can't do assembly. You don't have an assembly table to build your assembly table.

  4. Mark, it seems you can freelance as a one man music machine. Sounds great ????????

  5. I made my assembly table out of a solid-core door with melamine on top. I framed it with some ash I had laying around and just dropped the melamine in so I can replace it at any time. I used Kreg table legs and casters to save time, which I had precious little of when I made it.

  6. So glad we have a nerdy Woodwhisperer leading the way. Love the longer videos!

  7. I built my first ever workbench last year. I added a fold up leaf to one side so that I would have 4×8 when I needed and then fold down so it wouldn't take up so much space.. It really comes in handy

  8. If I don't see the poster of Kramer in the next video I'm unsubbing and starting a petition to have you banned from Youtube…you have been warned.

  9. A month ago, I built two tables 28" x 7' out of pallet wood with an almost identical design. They don't look like much but they are flat and heavy.
    Perfect for my workflow.

  10. Southern Yellow Pine is used for OSHA stamped scaffolding planks because it is often stable and void of defects. DD

  11. I love the changing of opinions over the years. It’s refreshing for someone to evolve over the years and in some cases become more practical. Still love that torsion box though. ????

  12. I absolutely need to get the shirt you had on in the end. Hilarious!

  13. Paxton lumber will deliver to you in St. Louis (I’m pretty sure) They have 5 different locations (chicago and Kansas City among two of those) and every type of lumber or sheet good you would need. And if you’re ever in Kansas City come by KC custom woodworking downtown in the cross roads. We would love to have you.
