[QUOTE="Rob Spence, post: 43390, member: 80"] Re: Work Bench Help I have several benches. Mostly 4. The electronics bench is a kitchen counter (from Home Depot - 5' long) on top of a couple of base cabinets with a plugmold strip along the back. I attached a 5' x 2' plywood piece to the rear of the backsplash and have a shelf and the plugmold mounted there. There is a traditional woodworkers bench - maple top with end and side vices. There is the main woodworking bench which is about 12' long and has a 30" deep x 2" maple top and is on top of kitchen base cabinets (drawers and doors). I have a router built in and my mitre saw inset. Then there is the utility bench. It is 3'x5' and built with 4x4 legs and a 2x4 frame and is on 4" casters and has a double 3/4" ply top. The height is set to the same as my main benches and the table saw so it can be rolled up to any other bench as an extension or serve as outfeed for the saw. Most of the time it is free standing in the middle of the wood shop. Very heavy and I can pound on it all day if needed. It is often used as an assembly bench or for when I have to open up speaker cabinets or doing refininishing of them. [/QUOTE]
