I asked a few weeks ago about getting a new Workmate type bench.
So, off down to the B+Q Warehouse today to get one.
I was expecting to get a decent one, like my old one which cost around
£70 10+ years ago.
I came away with a basic £9.98 B+Q branded one, which I didnt expect
much of, but for the use I needed, thought would be OK.
So, off home to build it up, and surprisingly, it is quite good. Sturdy,
only 1 height, but the adjustable jaws and bench top are better than my
old B+D workmate. The old one had plastic threads for the jaws, with a
chipboard top, the new 'cheap' one had a metal threads, and, apparently,
a bamboo top. It looks like pine, certanly better than the B+D one.
A true bargain at £10.
Alan.
