BORA Centipede 24 in. x 48 in. Workbench Top for Sawhorse with 3/4 in. Dog Holes

Very easy to assemble. Light and sturdy.

Lightweight but strong work support system that can be quickly set up or taken down and does not take up much storage space. This is a really handy system for providing work support up to 24″ by 48″, more useful than a pair of saw horses and taking less space when not in use. Included with the support is a set of clips and pads that allow you to lay sheet goods or 4x lumber on top. You can easily increase the size of the work area by using the clips with 4x lumber or by laying a sheet of plywood on top. The system is also very strong – with the Bora worktop installed on top of this I can easily stand on top and use it as a stable work platform. It is easy to collapse down into its compact storage bag that can be stowed in a your vehicle or shop. I would strongly recommend getting the Bora worktop to go with this – it makes for a really strong setup and the work top is pre-drilled with multiple holes allowing much more flexibility with the positioning of the hold down clips.The only negative for me is that the ground needs to be fairly flat, so it is best used on a driveway, garage or other flat floor.

The optional surface would be useful but 3/4 inch plywood, cut to size, works well. Makes a nice work table for the shop. The support seems sturdy and has flexibility for various applications.

The Bora Centipede is a light weight but decently strong (vertically speaking) workspace. It collapses down into a carry bag. Pair with any sheet stock and instant work table. The full expanded size is 4×6 so a standard 4×8 ply top will do. Going smaller in the length (less than 4 feet) is doable (as shown in my pictures) but definitely not ideal.It is important to ensure the legs are expanded completely as the legs do move up and down to allow the table to expand and contract. If it isn’t expanded all the way out, the legs do not have much support and it will fall over (dropped my router off the table). Make sure to read the instructions”¦Initial use was ok. Leg strength appears fine (again after it’s expanded out the entire distance). The cross pieces connecting the legs are flimsy but don’t carry much load. OK for the general home user but using on a job site consistently would quickly bend something and make it nearly unusable.My main concern for long term use would be durability of the cross members and the plastic. The plastic parts are made of decently thick plastic but feel somewhat cheap. It doesn’t mean they are but just feels that way. The “clamps” have a rubbery end so they “stick” into the holes at the top of each leg to keep the part from moving around, but I wouldn’t put too much faith in this system. Definitely ensure you have the flat top surrounded by these “clamps” when you start to work with this.The system comes with four square cups that also slide into the holes at the top of the legs that should hold a board on the table. I used them and put a board into them but I don’t know how useful this would really be. For me the table is what I really need and then clamp everything to the table top. Having a place to put a single board to measure and cut would take more time than it’s worth.Overall, it’s decent for the average home user who needs a popup worktable as an addition. I like being able to put it in a bag and stick in a corner. It won’t be replacing my shop table any time soon, but it’s a good addition when I need one. Buy collapsible sawhorses instead.

This is an accessory for the Centipede Work Support Sawhorse. It comes with a 24 x 48 x 3/4 inch top which folds in half. It has carry handles at the hinge point for easy transport. It seems to be made from MDF and while I did not weigh it, it does feel heavy. It is very sturdy and when attached to the work support sawhorse it creates and extremely stable environment. While the matching work support sawhorse can hold 2,500 pounds, this top is rated at 2,000 pounds. Set up involves unfolding the top, placing it on the work support sawhorse then using the six included fasteners to secure it to the P-Tops of the work support sawhorse. Those fasteners can be a challenge. I had some difficulty lining them up easily and also ran into circumstances where the legs of the work support were in the way and it made turning the fasteners to lock them in difficult to accomplish. The top has numerous evenly spaced holes drilled in it allowing the various accessories for the work support sawhorse to be used (quick clamps, 2 x 4 support brackets, non-slip pads, etc.). It should be noted, the hook accessory will not work in the holes of this workbench top. Overall I think this is a great addition to the work support sawhorse.

This sawhorse is unique in its approach to providing a stable work surface. It opens easily, but a lifting action is needed to aid in closing. Once fully opened it is stable. The plastic feet provide a surprising non-slip action, to both the sawhorse and to any sheet material placed on it. Both bags are of simple construction but adequate. There is no indication of where this is made and no instructions other than a cautionary label wrapped around one of the legs, making it difficult to read.

This stand multi-purpose popup stand will be very busy in my shop.  1.) Used for processing sheet goods at the beginning of my projects. 2.) I am in the process of building a worktop like @CarpenterOne3 on Instagram. He nailed it with his design. Check it out. The system can be set up and taken down in minutes. The included storage bag is a big plus for clean storage and easy to carry to the next project site.

Excellent product at a very fair price. Bora makes very good workshop accessories and delivery by Home Depot was flawless.

Still in box. Christmas present for grandson

It’s a bit awkward to set up by one person. Need two people if you want to fully extend it or make it a different size.
