New 'Workmate' recomendations please

My old B&D Workmate had a terminal experience with a Deere by the name of John and needs replacing. The modern replacement appears to be a WM536 but I wondered if anyone had any recommendations for any other type or has experienced and would not recommend a 536. My price cap is £75 as it does not get a lot of use. Depending on what kind of work you are doing, it might also be worth looking at the Triton supejaws: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Triton-3273.../dp/B074N7X5FG Much more clamping force than with a workmate. (there is also an XL version - and some other brands do similar things) -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |
