Free Lumber Rack Work Bench Plans

VitalBodies finished the design of a lumber rack / work bench hybrid.

Not the classic wood workers bench, but a larger bench. There are many work bench plans available, but we wanted one that used less materials, used reclaimed materials, took less wood to build and made the best use of space. Additionally, this bench can be built with little or no power tools, although a miter saw makes the project easier. Storing lumber on a number of levels means the bottom board is never too deep and lumber can dry.

"How about a bench that stores lumber, allows the lumber to dry, makes the lumber easy to get to, has wheels so the lumber can bask in the sun or be moved and has a huge work surface the size of a sheet of plywood? You got it!"


Not your average rack, but a rack that you can load and unload from every side and a work surface to layout fairly large projects.

These plans are meant to be super simple, for the somewhat experienced. There is no materials list, as you will likely use whatever you have laying around to build this. We do suggest at least 3-6 fasteners at all critical joints, as lumber is heavy. Also, try to make the blocks as tight a fit as you can. This keeps everything more solid. Use at your own risk and use common sense. Safety first!

We built this bench and really like it!

If you build one, send us an image!
