I was looking at the hobby thing as a quick way to get  up & running. Too cold out in the shop to work on my new bench, and mamma won't let me cut wood or drill holes inside where it's warm.

Bench framework is all aluminum T slot extrusions. Side & back panels will be 1/4" birch plywood with a 1'2" thick shelf above. The 1/4" birch will fit right into the T slots and add strength to the frame. The bench top is going to be 3/4" MDF with 4 coats of sanding sealer applied, then waxed. Makes for a good water resistant bench top.

When it finally warms up enough to get back in my shop to work, I'll do a build thread on the bench.
