Sup guys,

Well sometimes it pays to be a landlord of a seniors community let me tell ya. Sometimes people practically give stuff away. Yesterday a nice couple moved in and well he was a guy who used to repair watches and he no longer wanted a lot of stuff he had. This is what he gave me It's such a nice work bench honestly. It's gonna be sweet for working on my RC's. I just used to have a desk type thing.

Here is the new one

sweet, did u put those clamps on there or were they already there? at one place i got a banquet(sp?) table which is really nice and at my other place i use the floor. lol.

Dude the bench came as is with the vice and the two clamps. I know I'll find a use for them. Picked up a new wasteland style gear box and a set of drill bits and what have you to help celebrate. Think I am off to get me a new cordless drill today too.
 
It certainly didn't take you long to clutter it up...
 
looks pretty nice, although i do hope that's not where you wrench on your cars. doesn't look like there's much room there
 
I use an old dresser. The drawers keep all kinds of tools and gadgets hidden and the top is high enought that I can wrench on my rides without slouching or bending. Its gets kinda tireing standing the whole time but it works.
 
Hmmm Cluttered yes Ummm it is in fact a work bench that I will use daily lol. Ok for someone that commented that it looks too small Well I'ma hook you up with what the rest of the place looks like. It is cramped but it certainly does the truck. That is also why I have a rolling chair so I can go between the both of them.

Have you found a brand name anywhere on the bench? It looks like it might be a Garrett Wade. Very pricey.
They make polished brass tools with rosewood handles, and judging by the size of that bench and the vices on it, I think that's what it is. Good Deal.
 
Hmmm, I will leave the cheap comments all alone trust me when it comes to getting drunk why on earth should I pay for $$$ Pricey ass corona. Ok newayz Rolex I haven't found the name on it at all. It is constructed very nicely and I like it. Hell I got to use the vice today to modify some steering linkage for my savage. I'm glad I came acrossed this bench it was a deal and a half.
 
It's the location of the 2 vices, the drawer, the peg holes in the legs, the maple top, and the small size.
I know someone who got one from Garrett Wade, along with some of their tools that are just to beautiful to use.
I e-mailed him, and I'll get back to you with a price.
 
Rolex man o man you just might be right dude. If so I got even more of a deal than I thought. I picked it up for $50.00. Here's a link to the Garrett Wade work bench page

I was always a cheap drunk back in my drinking days. The cheaper the beer the more you could buy.
