I&rsquo;ve been using my kid&rsquo;s play work bench which has been surprisingly useful but it&rsquo;s also built for a 4 year old. I needed something built for an adult.</p> <p>A few years back my dad and I bought a couple of Simpson StrongTies workbench kits. We were going to build some workbenches over a weekend but somehow that never came to pass — I think we went golfing instead. Fortunately, my mom still had the kit in her garage and let me have it.</p>
