Featured Antique Lab Workbench

Imagine these were made the same way for a lot of years. Think 1910 or later based on configuration. Think I used one very similar in my chem labs in the 70s but they were quite old then.

 

Hi and WELCOME Laura!!!! Sounds like you've got some energy to burn!!!! Good for you and a great piece to work on to boot!!!! I DO HOPE you'll enlighten us with images when you finish it?????!! We LOVE to see members projects!!!!!!!!!

 

Thank you! Of course I will I’m enjoying repurposing things. Especially saving things from the road to a junk yard!

 

I've redone some real junk.
One was outside so long it literally was a pile of parts!
Everything had simply come unglued!
I extended its legs and used it in an upstairs hall as a linen cabinet/table.
That one I still have.

 

I got the sides to an old crib and that sat outside for I don't know how long and it was coming apart in my hads.. the wheels were completely rested solid and had fibers stuck in them. Added some dowels, sandblasted the wheels, sanded it all down and painted it. Need to touch up the paint but otherwise it's made a nice blanket rack.
