My 7 year old grandson likes to work in the shop with me. He especially likes to saw but everything is too tall to saw properly. We built a stool but standing on a stool using tools is not safe. So I'm going to start this weekend on a a workbench he can use. I'm thinking 18" x 36" made from pine 2x4s 3" x 3" legs made from the same and mortised into the top. I'll probably add a small vice as well.
I'm thinking I can extend the legs over time as he grows taller, so he ought to get a few years of use out of it. Has anyone built a bench for a child to learn to use hand tools? Any tips or suggestions?
Any tips or suggestions for building a workbench from Borg pine?
