A Workbench For Apartment Dwellers That Will Create a Work Area When You Have No Space For One

Recently my wife and I moved into an apartMent after having a home for many years. With the house went my shop area, workbench, and my ability to accomplish even a minor remodeling effort like bookshelves. We no longer had a garage-just a car port parking space.

I'm not a woodworking hobbyist (although if I were it would be sheer agony to not have a work area), but I have usually undertaken small fixer-up projects around the house just to keep from having to hire someone or buy it new.

I thought it was going to cost me a lot when my wife asked if we could build a partition between the kitchen and the living room. But then she bought me this Jawhorse workbench for Christmas. This thing is awesome! It has re-established my ability to take on all kinds ofprojects.

My natural inclination was to dismiss a portable workbench that folded-up for easy storage. It solved my lack of space problem, but it didn't look like a workbench and was it going to be able to handle anything that required some real pounding and weight load. Then I discovered the power of the Jawhorse -the jaws. What essentially is a glorified sawhorse becomes a great workbench due to the gripping power of these jaws.

There are a number of other accessories for this workbench. From a plywood jaw accessory attachMent to a welding station accessory attachMent the enhancements allow the Jawhorse to become a very versatile work partner The jaws have patented padding to prevent the damage you would get from gripping something tightly in a vise and actas a second pAir of hands that hold everything perfectly steady.

I was able to set up my work area in the car port and in the driveway area. And the Jawhorse has wheels so I can roll it out of people's way. Needless to say my wife got the partition and I got back the ability to do my own fixer-up projects again.

It is really unsafe to attempt using power tools without a safe work area. The Jawhorse eliminates this worry by providing a sturdy workbench that is stable even when the area might be setup on uneven ground.
