    I am going to run out and get this.

    This guy has been selling these thing for the past month, saying he is not making any more. He has caught all kind of crap. What is custom about these? It looks like they are all salvage parts from a rack system in a warehouse. I will say the are sturdy. He is probably out of work and trying to make ends meet.

    I think you're right. It's not a bad idea, but overpriced, and too archaic for my taste.

      More power to him I say. I doubt if one of those benches could be made for that money if the parts had to be purchased. Heavy duty racking is very expensive, even surplus stuff.

        I think where the guy went wrong was calling the Custom workbenches and giving the impression in his other adds that there were no more to be had and then show a week later with more. Just the false advertising, typical of Craigslist. It could have been his business that went under and he is selling off the stuff trying to feed the kids. I think he could have done a better job of selling. Maybe that why he went under. I know he has caught all kinds of H*** over his adds, there was a big flame war going on for a while.
