Do you have a bench at home? if not, what do you use?

Going to start putting together tools for the TZ level 1 program, and want to start with a bench!

I've seen Otto Frei ones, but shipping from CA to BC is insane.

Thanks all!

I have the one that Otto Frei call FB4001 - http://www.ofrei.com/page241.html and a Bergeon bench mat. I picked mine up in person from from Perrins in Toronto - expensive prices, but cheaper than having it shipped from Freis.

I doubt that it will be worse - no import duty.

From memory I think it was about $800 taxes in, but that was about 18 months ago when the dollar was weaker relative to the US.
