Installing drawers in kitchen cabinets is done at the drawer height of the kitchen cabinets. About 30" high.

Installing slides is done on a workbench. It's nice to have a solid, dedicated spot to work.
Maybe like a workbench.

Garbage disposals are installed laying on your back underneath the sink cabinet with your hands
reaching up to the underside of the sink. About 20" high.

Attaching the cord for the garbage disposal can be done on a workbench. Cutting pipes for the drains can be
done on a workbench. It's nice to have a solid, dedicated spot to work. Maybe like a workbench.

Electrical receptacles are about 12" high in the wall. You always install those in the wall.

Really? *Always*? Ever heard of surface mount wiring? Boxes and tracks that need to be cut? See: "workbench".

Generally you are down on one knee working. Some outlets are up at counter height. About 40" high above the countertop.

Some receptacles (this one) are under sinks. Some of them (this one) are surface mounted and will need to be
tapped into for a switch.

To be honest, all you are talking about are tables in the basement. Just buy some heavy duty folding tables and set them up.

No, I'm not talking about tables in the basement, you are.

I'm talking about a workbench. A workbench that will have a vise. A workbench that will have a sturdy work surface and a lower shelf
for storage. A workbench that can be hammered on, sawn on, soldered on, drilled on. A workbench with a peg board back for hand
tools, rolls of tape, etc. A workbench that will have a power strip for power tools and other items that need electricity.

You know, a bench upon which work will be done.

Woodworking benches are different than tables.

No ****.

Tables are what you are needing.

Already addressed.

Woodworking benches have vises and are made to assemble and work on wood. Power or hand tools. Vises on the bench to hold
wood. I have a tall woodworking bench. Its great for most things. But is really too high for hand planing. It has vises at both ends.

Why are you telling me this? Show me where I used the words "woodworking bench".


The idea of asking about the dining table height and the kitchen counter height being correct is good.

Well, at least you got one thing right.
