I've made a few different iterations of my modular workbench. I've used the extra space, below the top, for dog holes and storing long items like straight edges and track saw tracks. While making a new single bay workbench for some craft supplies, I thought about adding two pop out extensions. That way, I can always expand my workspace about 3x but fold it away when not in use. In this video I show how to build that.
