looking to make/buy or source a better work bench. I have for the past 10 years just been using the handiman type folding work bench but I find that they are never really high enough and not really that great for cutting and working on with the grinder/cutters. Also not to user friendly carting from job to job. What are you guys using any good ideas.

Two folding trestles with a sheet of ply or chipboard!

the floor......its cheap and theres loads of it around

Hop ups..

I have had them for years. since they first came out and they are the higher ones than some you get now..

Hi dave,

wot are hop-ups, your talking to a tiler in New Zealand, we probably call them something different down here.

cheers

A hop up is something to stand on when reaching hights

same as

i use a hop up but i also use a B&D work mate and that is spot on

Looks a bit unbalanced there

solid as m8 clamped in underneath it is going now where.

alloy hop up for my tx700
and a work mate with a square piece of ply clamped on top for using my ts40 and for drilling, clamping tiles etc
