I'm not sure if this post is OK for this NG but are there any good plans
and
ideas for an electronics workbench? Perhaps someone built one that they're
proud of. Thanks in advance.

Not sure where you are located, but I always go the local electronics
surplus place first. They almost always have very high quality benches
from company shutdowns that are designed for the job, and well made.

With the economy taking a dump now, the supply is great, and the
prices are excellent. I see benches for between $50 and $100, cash and
carry...

That is exactly how I got mine in 1982 from a former employer! $20 for
6 foot long workbench with steel frame, 2.5 inch thick hardwood work
surface,
drawers and a riser.

What a steal!
