After receiving our new rock chucker supreme kit we had to get to work on building a suitable bench. My brothers girlfriend was about to take an old bunk bed to the dump ... luckily he offered to take it off her hands : ) A good mate who is the brother of a chippy came round to help us put it together. Were pretty proud of our effort and definitely pleased with the result and the price :D !

The table top looks to be 2 pieces of MDF around 3/4-1" thick ea.

cool . mine is a old sub woofer box made of 3/4" mdf heaverly reenforced that a friend made years ago . bench top isn't that big but having good shelf space & cupboard helps . but it doses the job .

Nice bench Ricta, I've got an old set of drawers with all but the bottom one removed and a sheet of 12mm laminate on top, its got a little movement but does the job. You really have to hold the press down with a bit of weight when your FLSing 30/30's or you can tip mine over. :wink:
