Not only is it very uncomfortable to craft anything while fighting with a workbench which keeps being unstable but it is also dangerous, too. My father-in-law had a terrible accident because of the uneven floor in his garage, where he used to spend every single free minute.
Although he managed to get out of the situation after a while, he was unable to move for a whole month due to the heavy piece of machinery which fell on his left leg during one of his DIY projects. With this in mind, this workbench with leveling feet is a fantastic build.
