I think what I will do is build 2 benches. Then you can stand them together end to end or side to side as necessary and also use independently when needed.

I have a photo of my bench on this site as a project, it is 3 metres long (about 9 foot), it is that length because that is what fits in between my shed frames, and because I got a piece of bowling alley lane very cheaply to use as a top. I had started off with a four foot bench frame as per kreg plans, with ply as a top. When I bought the piece of bowling lane, I simply added four more stretchers and two more legs to one end of the existing frame, effectively doubling its length. You can never…

This is becoming more then a bench it's an adventure. I'm getting a lot of great ideas. Like making the bench the same height as your table saw. DM bench frame looks like a nice start. I'm going to taking my time before I start this project and try to get all my options. When i do make it will post my picture. Thanks all, great forum.

Will, bigger isn't always bad, depends on your available space. See my bench below, it's 65" x 62". If you have the room and you built it to the height of your table saw you could use it as a out-feed table just like I did, table saw is not in the picture it's too far right to see.<br/>

You guys are making me rethink my plans. So bigger isn't better when it comes to a workbench! I guess all of you are working on a 4foot bench.Thanks for setting me straight.

I think I would add some more support in the middle also, the only thing I could see wrong with making an 8 ft table top is the mess you will be able to make before you have to stop what your doing and clean the bench off
