Any recommendations on building a good workbench that would be good/useful for wood working? The workbench in the initial post is interesting, and looks relatively sturdy and simple and inexpensive, but I suspect there's more out there. Any recommendations for plans or even if no plans, then maybe dimensions or items/features to incorporate into the bench?

For instance, when I think of a vise for a workbench, this is what I picture (Dad and Grandpa both had vises like this).



But most of the workbenches that I've seen in the videos that I've been watching recently that are centered around wood working have been more like this.
