Everything (including the rockerguard) was free.

It's amazing what people give away on FB Marketplace/kijiji

I have a drill press on one corner, and a bench vise on the opposite.

It's mounted on some ikea base cabinets with extra feet, and it's also attached to the wall.
Yes, I've seen the flooring idea mentioned a few times. Good idea and repairable if needed. I haven't logged into Faceplant in years - I have to see if I can still remember how. A friend is checking with someone who is redoing a kitchen and might be getting rid of some butcherblock surface. Thanks.
