Workbench basics
A workbench is not actually a bench and instead, it’s a sturdy multi-purpose table where much of the manual work for almost any craft is done. It is similar to a working table but has extra features fit for the needs of the craftsman. Examples of these extra features include clamps, holes, shoulders or extra arms, drawers, lighting panel, etc. The uses of a workbench are also limitless. For example; the functional Lowes Kobalt workbench can be used for woodworking or carpentry, electronics, art and sculpture, general repair, fitting and assembly, for laboratories, metal works, gardening, for jewelers, etc.

The different features and advantages of the workbench by Kobalt
Here are some of the features and reasons why Kobalt is the number one choice of many skilled workers or craftsmen:
- Made out of heavy-duty steel. You can be assured that these workbenches can handle the toughest jobs because they are built with heavy-duty steel body or steel frames. This also ensures the sturdiness of the table when you are doing some challenging or heavy tasks.
- Powder coated paint. The workbench’s color is not applied using brush or by spraying. It was actually painted using heat treated powder coating, the same technique used in painting cars making the color bond with the metal itself. That sleek and neat color will stay throughout the lifetime of the workbench.
- Drawers with 99-pound capacity. The drawers are also built to be tough. Because you are expected to use specialized and heavy tools, the integrated drawers are designed to carry up to 99 pounds of weight.
- Peg board with storage tray and hooks. The peg board with the added storage tray and hooks makes it easier to keep things organized and handy while working.
- Overhead light bar. An overhead fluorescent light bar is provided in case you are working indoors or if you need to extend working on your project up to the night. Additional light is also essential for certain jobs like when doing some repairs or when working with electronics.
