Want to get a work bench for my garage now that it no longer houses a car


Does anyone have any opinion on the work benches from MachineMart such as

http://www.machinemart.co.uk/product.asp?p=040310025

Is it flimsy metal or any good?

Any other reomendations?


Local scaffolding yard.
4 suitable length boards.
4 short tubes for legs

DIY Store or wood merchant
3" X 3" to screw and glue to the underside of the scaff boards for support.
5" in from each board end so you can bolt through for the leg poles
Rawlbolts to mount 3" x 3" to wall across back of board nearest wall.

Drill holes same size as scaff poles in ends of boards alongside the 3 X 3
and mount through the 3 x 3 bolting in place with suitable bolts and nuts
the poles

Jobs a good un.

Top it off with a nice rubber mat and you're away
