Abstract: A folding workbench system (100) is provided which includes a main support member (102) to which a plurality of leg members (104, 106, 108 and 110) are hingedly coupled on opposing ends thereof. A work piece support platform (120) is pivotally coupled on opposing ends thereof to one pair of legs (104, 108) and slidingly engaged within a slotted opening (130) in each of the other leg members (106, 110). A power tool (174) is coupled to a power tool support (150) that is slidingly coupled to the main support member (102). The tool support (150) includes a turret (156) coupled to the main slide (152) and a vertical height adjustment assembly (180) coupled to the turret (156).

Abstract: This invention provides for a portable workbench system (10) which may be used on-site in construction projects. The workbench system (10) permits cutting of workpieces (12) on-site without the necessity of removing the workpieces (12) to a central location. The workbench system (10) provides for a workbench frame (16) having a workpiece positioning member (28) extending in a longitudinal direction (18). A first power saw mounting mechanism (54) allows for fixing the position of a portable power saw (14) above the workpiece positioning member (28). Additionally, a second power saw mounting mechanism (80) is provided for adjustably and fixedly positioning the portable power saw (14) at least partially below the workpiece positioning member (28) in order to allow the user to either cut a workpiece (12) from above or below the workpiece positioning member (28).
