Fantastic value for money! Workbench 72" long

[Tomg]

I picked up one of these yesterday, a beast, but at a very comfortable price point.

Easy to assemble with heavy duty hardware, 5" lockable casters, almost 300lbs of awesome.

No Costco around here, only SAMS. Asked my son-in-law to check out his local Costco for me.
Thanks for posting it!!!

Dave,

If you have a Harbor Freight close, you might take a look at this workbench. It's only 60" long and has less features than the one above. I've had one for several years and it has served my needs well. Usually on sale for $139 and 20% off coupons are readily ad valuable.

It requires assembly and it takes two people to assemble.

Just back from Costco Huntsville, AL. They are selling these as quickly as they get them. Even the display sold. LOL
Luckily, they just got a few in last night and I scarfed one.

And also for hosting photos, don't overlook the GTA Media Gate. Host them right here. And of course photobucket.com.

Already making plans for my bench. Will frame the back side to add pegboard and a power strip. And also extend the frame to be able to hang a new 4' dual tube LED shop light I also got at Costco for $19.95. MAN it puts out some awesome light. And is very light weight compared to standard 4' fluorescent shop lights.

Nice score Dave. How's your shop coming long these days? I remember a major overhaul underway a while back.

[ezman604]

Well Jerry, I took a weeks vacation and got maybe 2/3 of it cleaned out. I need to finish cleaning it out and then plan the layout to put stuff back in neatly. Since then we have also started home shopping. May wind up moving. Requirements are smaller house bigger shop. LOL
Will see....

I have the HF workbench as well, it is well made and a bargain when purchased on sale with a coupon.  It also has a large 8" wood working vise and stops on the top of the work surface.

Looks nice; I could use one of those!
