�shop. I still have a Workmate that my father bought in the early 1970's. This Workmate may be time-worn, but it's still going strong and remains in regular use today. My Workmate is one tool I'd hate to be without, and many other do it yourself people agree. The Workmate has been so successful, in fact, that the name has become synonymous with any portable workbench. Of course, there are other portable workbenches and some other truly unique variations on the theme. So I thought I'd gather a few of the more interesting versions - a new version of the classic Black & Decker Workmate, a FatMax Mobile Project Center by Stanley, and a unique one from Wolfcraft, to show you just what this venerable and versatile tool can do for you.Defining the BreedThe original Workmate became so successful because it offered features that hadn't been seen before. Portability came from the collapsible base. This base makes it easy to carry the bench from place to place. When you reach your destination, just fold out the legs, raise the base, and then you're ready to work. What really makes this tool function is the tabletop. It consists of two flat table sections. Some models even have a third section that can be inserted in between to expand the size of the table. At its most basic level, a portable workbench makes a great stable work surface.Jaws Add LifeA Guide to Workbenches
