Shelves below evolved from loose scraps of plywood over 2 x 4's that spanned between legs to a combination of drawers and fixed shelves as my tool collection and woodworking skills improved. I built it 40" tall because I had disliked how my Dad's had required stooping over to work on anything.

Wow! I have never seen a workbench devoid of clutter before!

The large bench on the left was made after the dedicated shop was built. It has dog holes in the top and the full width Veritas twin screw vice jaw. I also have a pattern makers vise to mount on the left front.
The small bench and out feed table are 1 1/2" thick laminated Maple. The large bench is also laminated Maple. It is 2" thick in the center with 4" wide aprons.
