What part of the work do you plan on doing on the bench?

I have one for soldering work, one for PC-3000 work, another for my Clean hood.

Hello, thank you for your reply.

I think that I used the wrong term, sorry about this. What I meant with 'workbench' is something like you can find on the following link;

This seems like a good workbench but the cost is a little high. Do you know other products for the same purpose, or do you have any other suggestions?

Thank you in advance

I have one from HDRC, its not great but it does the job.

Haven't tried any others. Whatever you do don't get duped into buying their "training" stuff. Isn't worth the paper it's printed on.

Mine is the one SD sold a few years ago.
I think that in this, they are almost all the same.
No big tech involved I think

The weight matters. Heavy = Steady.
