December 29, 20196 yr comment_213846 I saw that bench demonstrated , I think it was on American Woodshop (Scott Phillips. The guy who built it (not Scott) said it weighed 700#, IIRC. Report

They were quite creative with that idea. Raising and lowering the top, even better for those taller jobs. If you had the space and wanted it I am thinking why not? I am more with @John Morris though, really not something I can use in my shop. Mostly the size and loss of storage space underneath. Now once I move out @Gene Howe's way, ya know 20 acres I probably have enough room for this 10,000 sq ft shop I keep dreaming about. Then, I want two of these. Report

December 30, 20196 yr Popular Post comment_213950 My experience with "adjustable" is that I adjust it once, then I'm too lazy to ever bother again. But the concept did spawn a thought: if I ever need an elevated surface, my main table is a pocket slab door that I've never bothered screwing into the frame: I could just build a spacer frame to elevate the top. Tuck that one away in the "I'm sure I won't forget.....what?" file. Report
