I deliberated long & hard about how deep to make mine and finally went with 24" front to rear depth. I did not want to have to reach too far to grab things and did not want to take up too much room with a deeper top. I used a dado blade to cut into the 4" x 4"s so the 2" x 4"s and the rear 2" x 6" fits very fine indeed. Heavy duty wheels make it easy to move if needed.

Sorry but all of my 1st pics (building in progress) of this bench are on a computer with a ransomware virus. If I ever get it cleared up I will be very happy. I do have printed out pics of my bench (many pics) but my scanner is out in the garage.


Those casters look like stiletto heels on a red-light district walker :eek:

I ended up building mine at 24" depth and about 33" high. That is probably going to have to get lowered down some but I am going to live with it for a while before I change anything.

And this is just the first. It is actually fixed to the wall so the next one is going to be shorter and wider, and probably on casters of some sort so I can move it around.
