Q:The top (the three boards) of my Workmate are not solid wood; they've started to curl up at the edges and the surface is cracking. It's nice to see that the current version seems to have solid wood. Can I order replacements?

    Answer This Question

    A:  You can take the middle board out to make a right angle clamp using the turning knobs

      A:  The center board may be removed, the sizes are not adjustible. Mike

      by|Feb 17, 2023

      A:  That's a tough question o answer with words. It's easier to show. You use open up the spaces between the three sections by turning the orange cranks on the top. Make sure you turn the cranks in unison or you will end up with a lopsided opening. I was very impressed by this bench for the price. The height is good. The markings on the top boards are very helpful with basic tasks. It's not a vice but it works well for cutting small furniture sized boards. Don't try to build an addition on to your house with it. Don't use it to hold branches you woulld cut with a chain saw. But, for holding items in place to cut with hand tools, it's great!

        Q:Can I use this workbench for a tabletop tile saw?
        by|Dec 20, 2022
        4 Answers
        Answer This Question

        A:  Yes. Its a very stabile work platform and should be great for a tile saw.

        by|Dec 24, 2022

          A:  I don’t see why not. But the top is not waterproof. 

          by|Dec 25, 2022

            A:  Yes, you could use a tabletop tile saw on the workbench, HOWEVER, it must be clamped or secure it to the workbench since the tile saw will walk when in use. Remember if may be messy since the saw may kick up or spill the water you are using.

            by|Dec 22, 2022

              A:  We can advise the workbench can hold a maximum of 450 lbs. Please see the tools/tabletop table saw instruction for requirements and specifications.

                  Great Workbench
                  I spent all of memorial day weekend working on replacing a deck I had demolished a few years ago. This workbench was instrumental since I used it to anchor my power miter saw. Stable and heavy duty platform for cutting 2 x 6 x 8s.

                        Poor fit / finish
                        Just as others have said, the top looks like crap. It will likely do, but I had hoped that the issue would have been resolved by now. Poor showing on Black + Decker.

                          Poor quality parts
                          After just a couple of months and a only a few uses, the plastic belt (that drives the vise function) came off its runner, got caught up and split enough that it keeps falling off. The quality of the wood parts is far from great too.

                          IT'S A PIECE OF FLIMSY CRAP. The working parts are made of plastic. The moving clamp plate only moves a few inches. To accommodate a larger work piece, you have to wrestle out the fixed clamp plate to move it to a different slot. Try doing that with while holding the work piece with one hand and cranking the moving plate with the other hand. Even worse, the fixed plate is held in the slot by a plastic prongs. The act of removing the plate grinds the plastic against the sharp, rough steel edge of the slot. The assembly process alone ground away 25% of the plastic prong's effective working area. That means I have about 3 more uses before the thing stops working. I had an old model workmate that served me well for years. It finally met it's end when a heavy galling object crushed a leg. I was hoping to replace it, but this thing is no replacement. I want my money back. DO NOT BUY!

                          Very useful and sturdy
                          The workmate is very easy to assemble and comes with detailed instructions on how to put it together. The work mate is light weight and portable but also heavy duty and durable it works as both a vise and a workbench. It had a strong wooden top and aluminum legs and bottom tray for storage. Very convenient and well worth the price.

                            Nice Workbench for Small Space
                            I needed a small workbench that I could keep in a corner of my garage and also have the flexibility to move it to my driveway or backyard. This workbench satisfied my needs. As you can see from the photo, I also built my own vise attachment. The workbench turn handles are a little fragile, but stong enough for small jobs.
