Workbenches

At our old lab, our workbenches were tables. They were arranged with one end against a wall, and it became evident that working between two of them afforded a generous amount of bench top space. So when it came time to design the benches for our new lab, we effectively went one step further, incorporating the equivalent of a third table with its back to the wall. The result was these U-shaped benches which span 10' of wall and offer 20' of full-depth bench top.
