  • Thought this might be a good place to ask.

    I’ve inherited an old workmate which still functions and has sentimental value. Unfortunately, the top (aka wooden vice jaws) is on its last legs.

    Similar to this one:

    I’m after a replacement top. I considered making one, but replacement tops seem to be c£25-35 (model dependent) … which probably = cost of making one.

    My question is this:

    A whole cheapo folding workmate is only £25 posted:

    Assuming the top/jaws fit, can anyone think of another use for the cheapo folding Workmate sans top/jaws?

    I wondered about a table or desk (not sure if we need one).... or just another surface any other thoughts?

  • We have a cheapo gass BBQ, but actually it might be useful to have a small folding table to sit next to it.

    Also if it's just for BBQ accoutrements then I could use a really thin mm of MDF, which will be both light and inexpensive.
