The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area The Tool Chest What was the last tool you bought?

Have seen B&D Workmates forever but only recently bought one (on sale 1/3 off). Box sat in garage for a couple weeks till yesterday, was trying to maneuver a drill with wire wheel to de-rust a rocker cover. One hand to steady the cover and the other two hands to hold the drill was quite a challenge. So I assembled the Workmate, gave it a try. Works well for that. Oil pan is next.

Quality seems ok, think it's the medium size one. The two wood pieces are obviously some kind of Asian hardwood, but seem durable enough.
