I am wanting a simple but very sturdy general purpose wood bench that wont bounce on me if I am hammering on something.

8 foot in lenth and probably 30 inches in width. Under $200.00 is prefferred....

Hi, Jman! You can build a real dandy for under $200. Start with 4" x 4" Douglas fir for the legs, and consider 2" x 10"'s for the top.

If you need a plan, I can whip something up for ya.
