Centipede® workbench
The Centipede® Sawhorse and Centipede® Support XL are the ultimate portable workbench or table base – a heavy duty steel stand that sets up in seconds to support thousands of pounds and folds down into a compact, lightweight unit for easy transport and convenient storage.
Featuring a unique steel frame design, the Centipede® Portable Work System is constructed of multiple steel struts that rest directly between the load and ground to support an incredible amount of weight while keeping even the thinnest sheet materials from sagging. Each strut is moved in tandem with a series of flat steel cross bars flexible enough to absorb impacts and durable enough to ensure long-lasting smooth operation.
Currently available in two models:
Centipede® Sawhorse supports sheet lumber and table tops with 6 struts over a 2’ by 4’ area Centipede Support XL Bucket Test

Durable polymer P-Tops atop each point of contact provide a work surface that won’t mark loads while avoiding contact damage between cutting blades and steel struts. Each P-Top is replaceable and spins 360 degrees to accommodate use of the included Quick Clamps, designed to keep materials in place, and X-Cups, which conveniently accommodate standard 2x4s for drop-in setup. Each kit comes in a carry/storage bag.

Bought this as was recommended, personally didn’t like it, felt unstable and a bit flimsy, thought poorly made, ended up giving it away, on the plus side was light enough to to move around, and storage was easy

Great table or sawhorse, looks flimsy but once weight is on top it's study. Can cope with 3m solid wood worktops on the 2 foot by 4 foot version that I have. Also super solid with a third party mft slab pegged to the top, so much so if you fancy a lie down just hop on top!

This bench is quick and easy to set up. Doesn't take up much room in the van. I would recommend the 8'x4' version as it handy for stacking and cutting sheets of ply ,gyproc or used as a bench for routing. Also handy for setting up chop saw.
