Show us your WORKING Work bench

[softailgarage]

Inspired by another thread. We've all seen the nice, neat, sometimes staged photo's of workbenches, tools all shined up, everything in its proper place. We all know that when there is a project going on or repairs being made, the bench isn't always so neat & tidy, so stop what your doing, don't clean a thing and show us your workbench as it is currently.

If I took a picture of my workbench right now you'd need your imagination to be able to "see" it because of all the **** on it

 

[softailgarage]

How about another pic of the redhead then, LOL

 

[wrench409]

Damn, did I leave the door up again?

Seriously, I'm cleaning mine up right now.

I could but those are "private" pics

 

[colt zantop]

Here ya go! Actual WORK in progress!

 

[GTA Matt]

This is actually incredibly clean for me, but I didn't build it to look clean and pretty...

 

[Rossco]

Mines a gong show at the moment doing all this work.

 

[bobcatdan]

I'll have to remember to take picture next time their full of ****.

 

[bobcatdan]

Boy that's an old picture, **** ton of old plow truck parts laying around now. Very badly need to haul scrap in.

 

[Steevo]

Ok, you got me.

What it really looks like today.

 

[Jazz1]

Pretty much how it usually looks other than the little snapon box just landed on work bench today,,,a $15 kijiji deal

 

[Jack Olsen]

People think I'm OCD.

 

[Ruger_556]

Do mobile benches count?

@ Mr Rossco, I am very intrigued by the electrical panel turned 90 degrees.....storage box or active electrical panel?

Like that when we moved in.

200amp service. 100amp feed to the house.

Personally ide have buried it in the wall if I built the place.

I am pretty sure that this was staged.

 

[RivennHewn]

I staged mine to mask my OCD.

 

[clarence wetzel]

here's my rolling bench at work

 

[KraftwerkMk1Jetta]

I find this thread much more interesting then the other work bench threads. I'll have to post mine later to add to it.

 

[jimgood]

Yaaay! Jack Olson IS human!

Putting my bench built from 12" i beam to use with my axle project/build. Axle weighs in at 700lbs in the first picture.

 

[bobcatdan]

This thread needs more traffic, love the shop ****. Here's my benches up to minute update. Not too much bench work, just new parts waiting to be installed.

 

[Jeeper]

I use the top of my Snap On box more than anything. This was last year doing a steering pump on a CJ7.

3x the workbench(es), 3x the mess.

The 'House' bench, cabinets recently added, household maintenance and home improvement stuff

The 'Hobby' bench. Reloading, model and replica sci-fi prop building, electronics

And the rolling table, used for automotive, upholstery, large sewing projects, and chiefly woodworking / furniture building. It's about to be upgraded / merged with Ron Paulk's portable workbench designs. I'm building his modular / portable woodworking bench design, but modifying my rolling chassis to host it when set up at home. In use elsewhere I'll use his trestle leg design.
The rolling table lets me 'grow' my woodworking area when I'm working on a project and I can roll it outside for sanding messes and finishing stink.

And the only time any of them are NOT a mess is when I'm clearing the deck(s) for the start of a major project.

Addendum: The only thing I keep orderly are my tools. They are racked / put away at the end of every use session, otherwise I'd lose them in the mess and since I'm working in multiple places it cuts down on having to hunt around for where I left some particular tool.

Baby Godwin Pump?

 

[DCarr2]

this is typical of my bench... being cleaned off is not often, its 11x6'

 

[Ruger_556]

Baby Godwin Pump?

No, it's off a water truck. Can't remember who made the pump for the life of me though.

New bottom end in the CR250

Ok, now I'm intrigued..........

What looks like a US/Canadian style breaker box & a UK/Irish 13A twin switched socket

 

[tony302coupe]

This is cleanest my bench will ever be..

 

[rieferman]

I finished my major yard project yesterday which apparently used every measurement, digging, cutting, drilling, and hammering implement that I have... oh, and electrical too.

I literally just filled my cup of coffee up and was headed out to clean this up, but found this thread and thought I'd post ALL of my work surfaces looking well used.

Hey Tony, me being in the Northern Hemisphere, do all you guys downunder mount your vise on the side like that?

 

[great white tj]

Owls nest...

Ha ha Good eyes.

Well, the old man shipped my Techics stereo system from the UK. 240v single phase. So I had to figure that one out.

 

[sanddan]

Believe it or not but I've been cleaning the shop for the last two days. Still a lot to do yet.

 

[rmack898]

I can clean the bench off every morning but by the end of the day it always looks like this.

 

[tony302coupe]

Turbo, we are down under, everything is the wrong way around.
I work for an OEM pump company, we specialise in the build and repair of submersible water pumps. Having the vice mounted on the side of the bench make it easy to place the rotating assembly’s in the vice clamped by the shaft/rotor, a more comfortable work height when building pumps, filling and draining the oil housing with the shaft/rotor is set horizontal.
