This style of portable bench/ work horse is invaluable to the home handyman and also the tradesman. By using the two handles on each side, the top can be opened up just like a vice so that items can be clamped quickly and easily. This will allow you to carry out different types of work. Eg, sawing, chiseling, planing etc.

Being of light weight construction these units fold down semi-flat and can be stored or transported easily. They are normally reasonably priced around the 50 - 70 dollar mark and can be purchased from most hardware stores.
