Turn a single sheet of plywood and a few pieces of hardware into a portable workbench that “knocks down” for compact storage.

Compact Workbench: Build this bench in a weekend, and enjoy it for the rest of your life. Made entirely of dimensional lumber, it requires just a portable circular saw (or mitersaw) and drill to create it in its simplest form.

New addition to the workshop and a new course offering for 2023! The mini Roubo Workbench (chair makers workbench), a more compact version of our larger three day roubo course benches. Perfect for smaller work spaces or smaller projects. This one is 80cm high, 75cm long and 60cm deep. It is made from pine and beech like the bigger benches, the vice chop and parts of the gap stop have been made using English oak. A 120cm (4ft) version is also available to build.

This portable workbench stores the tools with it! It can be stored under the bed, and easily pops up to become a sturdy workbench. We love it for builders in apartments, small spaces, or on the go. You can build this portable workbench for about $40 with basic tools. This is a quick and easy project with free step by step diagrams, shopping and cut list and video tutorial.

Compact Workbench with Storage A compact workbench with integrated storage and a pegboard for tools optimizes your workspace. Perfect for smaller garages.
