[QUOTE="Paddington, post: 8120746, member: 252"] I have an old and much abused and repaired, B&D Workmate, used most days and thinking of a replacement. Problems with my present one are 1) the working height is lower than other benches (I think the later ones had two heights) 2) the jaws don't open wide enough for some jobs, I could use sash cramps underneath, but there is no way of holding them in place 3) lack of sturdiness when working on say 6ft lengths of timber, the whole thing starts moving around the floor Are there better, stronger portable benches out there ? The ones I have seen on YouTube only seem to be used for small DIY jobs not farm level work. [/QUOTE]
