Portable, tradesman built trim bench

Evening all


 


I have read FH for a number of years and in that time I have come across ALOT of good ideas, tips and reviews.


Right now I find myself searching for an article that I just cannot find and I am hoping some of you all may have the key to this door.


 


I am looking for an article that was done and in the article there was a really kewl portable, home built bench that the trim contractor used for his chop-saw, to hold doors, to support trim for cutting and a myriad of other things.


 


Any one have a clue where i might find it? or maybe you have seen it ?


 


Thanks,


Gary

here's a Gary Katz article dredged up with the wayback machine - http://web.archive.org/web/20060424132616/www.garymkatz.com/Tool+Reviews/ExtensionWings.htm

I think the article you are after is in the Nov '94 issue (No. 91). "An Exemplary Folding Workbench"

You're welcome, but you gotta post pictures of your bench!!

Yeah, I remember that one.  Really cool, but it'd be a project to put one together!

Did it look anything like the tailgate of my pickup?

I won't be laughing at the lies when I'm gone,
And I can't question how or when or why when I'm gone;
I can't live proud enough to die when I'm gone,
So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here. (Phil Ochs)
