I see that many workbenches are about 24 inches wide. Some are 21 wide.
Since I am planning to build one what size is better of is it simple to
say
"bigger is better" and go with a big as practical?

Keep in mind that the ability to clamp a glue-up from both sides of a bench,
or to a bench on both sides, can be the difference between success and
failure, so don't put too much faith in "bigger is better" when it comes to
workbench widths.

You will be much happier if you can quantify the type of projects you will
normally do and size your workbench accordingly.
