Good quality cheap woodern workbench any ideas?

[Silentsky]

Hi All,

I'm looking for a workbench as i'm starting carpentry in my spare time. I like the Clarke CHB1400 Hardwood Workbench or the draper woodern one please see link

http://www.tool-catalogue.co.uk/index.php/cPath/125?osCsid=ca1d9b360fbc53bce0ef855f877bcfb6

however they all seem to be a great deal over £100! any ideas where I can get one cheaper?

Thanks
Kelly
