I'm unable to create visual drawings directly, but I can describe how to draw and label a woodwork bench. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

### Drawing a Woodworking Bench

1. **Top Surface**: Draw a large rectangle at the top of your paper to represent the bench's top surface. This is often about 2 to 3 feet deep and 6 to 8 feet long.

2. **Legs**: Below the top, draw four sturdy legs. Each leg can be represented by a vertical rectangle at each corner of the bench. Ensure they are thick enough to support the weight of the bench.

3. **Support Beams**: Draw horizontal rectangles between the legs for additional stability. One beam can go near the top of the legs, and another can be placed just above the bottom of the legs.

4. **Vise**: On one end of the bench (often the front side), draw a small rectangle on the top surface to represent a bench vise. Add a handle and some details to indicate the moving part of the vice.

5. **Cutting Mat or Tool Storage**: You can include a tool drawer or a rack underneath the top surface of the bench for storing tools. Draw rectangles or squares to represent these.

6. **Additional Features**:
- Draw holes or dog holes along the bench top for holdfasts and other clamping tools.
- You could add a shelf for additional storage below the top surface.

### Labeling the Parts

- **Top Surface**: Label this as “Workbench Top” or “Surface”.
- **Legs**: Label these as “Legs”.
- **Support Beams**: Label these as “Support Beams”.
- **Bench Vise**: Label this as “Bench Vise”.
- **Tool Storage**: Label this as “Tool Drawer/Rack”.
- **Dog Holes**: Label as “Dog Holes”.

### Final Touches

- Consider adding dimensions to your drawing to indicate size.
- You could also color or shade the bench to give it a more realistic look.
- Optional: Include some common tools on the top surface, like a saw or a chisel, to illustrate its use.

With these instructions, you should be able to create a clear and labeled diagram of a woodworking bench.
