Good find. Rework it a bit with a larger base footprint and make a
~4'x6' top surface out of two layers of 3/4" birch ply topped with
laminate and edged with oak. Makes a very good all around work table for
the shop that you can adjust to the optimum height for the project
you're working on. I made a similar work table from a 1,000# cap power
adjustable height frame I found surplus for $50.
