Hi all. I am in the middle of making a workbench out of reclaimed (or very cheap) timber. For the top, I have a single sheet of 20mm roofing ply, plus several off-cuts of 40mm beech worktop.
I'm undecided how to fasten the bits together to make the top, and was hoping for a bit of advice:
* Should the ply go on top of the beech, or vice versa?
* Would glueing the beech offcuts separately onto the ply be sufficient, or should I try and join the beech offcuts into one large piece before fixing to the ply?
* Should I screw the two layers together as well as / instead of glueing?
Hope the above makes sense, any advice would be much appreciated.
