    I just bought this one on sale for $175 from Sears. It is heavy and rock steady.

    That's cool as hell. Make it 30" tall and 30" deep and I'd use it as a desk!

    Wicked. I need to measure one of my walls to see if the depth will still allow the Mrs. to park her assault wagon. If so, that may be perfect for my work-horse bench.

    Whatever can't be done at the table in the dining room happens here:


    The collapsing sawhorses came from Lowe's. It's quite stable and folds up and gets out of the way when I need the garage space.

    Clean and clutter-free. I dig it.

    I took a solid core door (32x80) and hinged the long side horizontally to the wall in the garage. On the side away from the wall I hinged two legs to come in like landing gear on a FW190. Viola, a nice big surface to work at that is as solid as the house and it just folds against the wall when I'm done. If I don't finish my project, my car sleeps outside. I don't like that.
    I just did two lines of powdered wig powder, cranked up some Lee Greenwood, and recited the BoR. - Outlander Systems

    Exclamation

    I'd actually considered a folding work surface. When we first moved into the house, the Mrs. drove through the wall. I told her next time she wants to park in the living room, I need advanced notice. My folks bought her an electronic stop sign that flashes when it's bumped.

    I've got a wall that comes out, that would make an excellent setup for a GP work station.

    Come on people, we need some pics going on in here.

    Performed my first task on the new, but incomplete, bench. It beat working on the floor, but I seriously need some sort of cradle.

    Without the overhead shop light, there quite simply wasn't enough lighting to perform any type of work whatsoever.

    My newest friend just got a detailed inspection, a thorough cleaning, and a good lube job. 10W30 Motor oil is where it's at.
