The woodworking bench is for many carpenters and me of course , the most important wood machinery every carpenter should have and also try to have the best possible and appropriate for him .

The correct and appropriate workbench for you , will make your woodworking life way easier , but the most important is that you’ll work with easiness , safety and not damaging your body in a long term .

The right workbench should have the appropriate height around or , a little higher from your belly-button but never lower you’ll hurt your lower back . It should be very steady , have the right vices attached to it and a nice bench top .

See HERE my primary and extended post concerning the properties and more , for your workbench .

Before my suggestions for you , i have an amazing good and fully detailed book , of how can you create your personal workbench .

It’s a complete guide-book , with a hard cover and fully illustrated from Lon Schleining and inside you’ll see classic-modern-special bench creations and not only .

It worths every penny for it and you can get it on Amazon in here .

So let’s see my suggestions for you , form the cheapest solutions and escalate to the very top ones :

The BLACK+DECKER Workbench, Workmate, Portable one .

This bamboo – steel combination portable workbench can hold up to 550lbs , is a perfect bench if you cannot affort( or don’t want) an expensive one and you can check its price on Amazon in here .

It has very serious advantages :

1) heavy steel frame so it can hold 550lbs of your working force .

2) It has many clamping options/jaws .

3) it’s very stable and wisely designed( it has a step for your feet when planning) .

4) It has a solid and big enough surface to work and in general for its price you get more than you pay .

It has no serious disadvantages if you know what you get paid and its portability it makes it a perfect for a guy-lady-kid maybe , who doesn’t want to spend much , but have the ability to do all the woodworking jobs everywhere , very nice and “honestly” .

Of course the Black & Decker prestige is another serious advantage .
