Do a search here on workbench. You’ll probably find lots of ideas and you get to chat with the builder.

Yeah, it’s really dependent on what work you are going to be doing. Is it a work surface, or a bench with different vises and clamping options? Is it a traditional euro bench, or american bench? There are lots of different choices depending on what type of work you see yourself doing. You can see some different designs here: http://www.workbenches.com/
