Its all in the width and thickness. I could build one in a few hours were I so inclined.

Knoll,
Yes, the pulley and the weight scale are in the picture if you look closely.

That photo is the 1987 7-Eleven cycling team when Davis Phinney and Andy Hampsten were on it.  I use to cycle and build racing frames back then.

Wow shan eyou are a neato!!!  Wish I could keep my bench looking like that.   Mine always looks like a bomb went off on it.  I'll put a scraper down and pick up a rasp then spend 5 minutes trying to find the scraper again!!

hahaha I just spent an hour or two cleaning in there this weekend. Normally never looks like that. Hadn't had a chance put shavings everywhere.  :laugh:
