That looks great!
Are you tempted to add 2 more boards underneath to have a place to store things? I have a similar bench with a full shelf underneath to store power tools in their plastic cases.
But as is, it looks clean and uncluttered.
Nice!

Nice job! The vinyl covering strapped in on the edge gives it a nice clean look. The metal corner pieces were a great idea. What are the 2 metal circular pieces are they for covering the knob and lockset holes?

Nice job. Is it going to live in the middle of the shop or relocated to a wall?
Great idea on storage! I’ll mull that over…That looks great!

Exactly. Lock set hardware I had left a set of 2” holes. Luckily, there are many cord organizer options at that diameter. Those are metal versions from Amazon with a brushed finish. They also make an outlet and usb charger that fits, but It didn’t really look robust enough for power tool amperage.
Headed for the wall with the cord keepers in the back and the vise in the front

Mine is next to a wall 99+% of the time. I put it on lockable swivel castors so I could move it out to the middle for big projects where I need 360 degree access.Great idea on storage! I’ll mull that over…

Looks great Theisan. Nice find and job putting this together. You've got yourself a very sturdy work surface for a reasonable price, nice job.
