    I was thinking that too. You and I probably sit to work. He probably likes to stand up and walk around while working.

    When are you planning to build the bench? I'd like to know how much you end up paying for it. The Sears one is very tempting at $200 with $25 $25 cashback but I don't know what'll happen if I mount a vise on it. And I don't know how to find and mount a panel to hang tools.

      The Seville products are fantastic. I have the adjustable height work table and it's bomb proof. Was very cheap at Sam's Club.

          I have the Seville benches and cabinets from Sams Club. Great products!!







          I also have a plywood bench with a integrated wood rack on top in the back of my shop.

            SVT-40 - Look like a thick solid top that you mount the vice to. Nice! Nice clean shop to boot.

            WHH - How much is it at Sam? We are a Costco member and can't see Sam's price.

              OP I don’t know if you’ve seen the reloading bench thread, but there are some good ideas there. http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s...d.php?t=252444

                      Thanks... It's not near that clean now...

                      If you check Sams club on line the prices should show up.

                          It looks very nice indeed and at the price. Am I able to add the pegboard or drawers later on for the 6' model? If I can then this is definitely a good deal. Just have to find a way to get in the club to buy one.

                            I think you could bolt on anything you wanted as long as you are comfortable with some fabrication. It's super burly in all regards: thick hardwood top and very solid steel legs.

                              Seconded. The workbench below is a steal for the price, especially when paired with a 20% off coupon.

                              60-in workbench

                              I've checked it out in person and it's well built for the price. If I had space and money, I'd retire my old workbench and get this one to replace it.

                              Put some pegboard on the wall behind your bench and you're good to go.

                                My bench isn't set against a wall. It will have to have support from the table.
