Plan$12, once
Change any size and Benchside redraws it, recounts the material and rebuilds the plan.
Built around your shop
- Any length, depth and leg height
- How many rungs and how far apart
- Your caster height
How it goes together
- Build the bottom frame: sides between the ends, middles between the sides.
- Build three upright frames: a rail across the tops of two legs, the rest as ledges on the side.
- Screw the frames into the base, square, and tie their tops together.
- Screw the casters under the corners.
The plan has every step written against the part letters in its cut list, with drawings of each part that has joinery.
