New on the market: workbench ‘project’ kits

Q: How do you make a workbench if you don't have access to a workshop or fancy equipment?

A: Consider buying a kit of selected and pre-cut dressed timber that can be assembled with minimal tools and starting-out skills.

If the wood happens to be a mix of Australian and exotic hardwood species, so much the better. Solid wood, choose your own joinery method, and your bench vice hardware.

Locally sourced and locally made (by you). These are the parameters and benefits of a new put-it-together-yourself ‘project’ kit from Carbatec.

As an environmental benefit, small section offcuts were specified for the laminated tops in order to maximise timber usage. These new hardwood workbench kits have just been launched and cost $1299. Find out more here.
