Ordered one of these the other day. One of the first in UK

Looks like Benchmark may have hit some trouble: http://toolguyd.com/do-not-buy-a-benchmark-work-table/

What a shame - that would look to be a far better system

Kind of makes you wonder who holds the patent, and what makes the Centipede different?

Only place I can see it being of use is a small workshop where a temporary bench or assembly/finishing table is required occasionally. Wouldn't be any use to me at all for site work. How many times do you have an 8 x 4 space available to set up your bench? It's compact and saves space on the van....where do you store the 8 x 4 bench top?

Trestles take a minute to set up and can form as long or short a work surface as you need.

Gimmick, won't catch on.
