ABSTRACT:
A workbench capable of clamping workpieces of various thicknesses. The workbench includes a laterally disposed work table mounted on a support structure. A clamping member is provided which includes a clamp positioned above the work table and configured to clamp a workpiece between the clamp and the work table. The workbench further includes a foot treadle pivotally mounted on the support structure. A linkage interconnects the foot treadle wit the clamping member such that rotation of the foot treadle in a first direction moves the clamp into clamping relation with the work table, and rotation of the foot treadle in a second direction moves the clamp away from the work table.
