Yep, you're right ... and that's the first thing I added to a similar

Noticed the vise on that bench. Have you ever seen any sag on the end
of the bench from the weight of it?

The reason I'm asking is that I've got a Record 53 vise that I am
going to mount on a 1.3/4" laminated maple bench. I figure it's over
50 lbs. It's considerably wider than the one you've got and I'll have
to move the legs inward at that end at least a foot.

Don't laugh at me, but I'm worried about the end of the bench sagging
form the weight. Am I being paranoid?
