(Bench top and shelf not included).
Designed with smooth flowing lines reminiscent
of industrial designs from the early 1900s, these
heavy Cast Iron Legs provide plenty of support
and stability for shop-made workbenches or
machine stands. Just add your own bench top
and bottom shelf to suit your particular needs.
Although each leg is capable of supporting
up to 2000 lbs., the actual capacity of the
completed workbench is dependent on many
factors, including (but not limited to) material
type, quality, and dimensions of the bench
top and shelf; the method and materials used
for cross bracing; the size and quality of the
hardware used; and any forces that may be
applied to the workbench during its use.
