I have 40' of bench surface. Unfortunately it all pretty much looks like this.
I feel a lot better now!!!

Whatever you start with will soon change...if there is a flat surface something will be placed on it..if the item has a flat top something will be placed on top of that if there is a space anywhere something will be put in it..and so on and so on.. untill you can't find place for anything..so you extend the workshop..and it all starts again.

This is an older model Festool table I have been using. Good for some stuff, but I need a higher bench as well.
What kind of vice is attached to your bench? Is it specific for instrument building?

Make sure you get the cork lined jaws for it too. I got mine cheaper at Grizzly.
I bought a Zyliss based on the recommendations I read here. I hated it and dumped it after a couple of months. Good for some things I suppose, but not for me.I have two Zyliss vices - latest video shows the last incarnation before they were discontinued from their line. Parrot vice is great; however these, for me, work better.

Here is a bargain..But it's too far for me to collect.
