That's good to know. Makes me feel better about making my own heavy
weight. Maple and Beech, heavy... No thinned out top with wide skirts
on the top, all solid. Weighs a ton... ok over 300lbs I needed help to
flip the top. I tried without, but it went through the wall... :-(

I think it's funny that a festool junkie can't afford a decent workbench.
This thing looks like it weighs 50lbs, or is a toy workbench...

He can afford a Kapex , multiple Festool tables, systainers galore, but
a rinky dink bench...

I love my heavy bench... Even my old one didn't move like that.

Maybe some glue will help and some bolts..

The bench looks like a Sjoberg. I have one. POS. Light work benches are like
light anvils. A constant source of frustration.
