Don, keep us posted on the project and how good it works....
Hey Charles, once the spring thaw arrives, and I can get back in my shop, I plan on doing a whole build thread. In the meantime, I've prefabbed most of the aluminum framework for the bench.
When completed, the bench will have my Foredom, 2 mini air chisels, 2 pencil type die grinders, a Passche air eraser which will give me pin point soda blasting capabilities, A small air compressor which is arriving today,
(hope I can hide it before my wife spots it), Lighting below the top shelf, a 6 hole air manifold with needle valve pressure control, a 6 outlet power strip and foot controls for both the air tools and the Foredom.
Being made of aluminum T extrusions, I guess you could call it modular construction. It will be easy to move or add parts on the bench as needed. The extrusions are a bit expensive, but it's so easy to work with. Just 1 allen wrench needed for everything.
