It really isn't a bad idea. On the vertical like that would make some jobs easier, especially if I was inclined to stand more than I do. I did built my bench around the basic idea of a central trough to hold some of the essential tools you constantly use and the dog holed slabs on either side of the trough with a Veritas Twin Screw Vise at the end of the bench. I have no regrets with that design but if you are working on something with small parts , those parts have an affinity for falling through the dog holes.

plugs till you need the hole...
how many times would you need to bend over to pick pieces up working vertically???

I can think of a couple of people that would seriously consider this for their shop...just to say they have it...!

Don't think so...but appreciate you putting me in good company...

All I can say after working in the field so many years with a 5 gal bucket turned upside down,and sawhorses, the table saw sitting on the dirt, it might be an improvement.But I am with Stick,my first thought was things falling on the floor. Then they showed the gutter trough and that solved that problem, Seems like a person would need an extra hand or two to hold things in place to clamp. But some smart ass would turn it over and put legs on it,what you bet?

I'm out of wall space.

Me too, I think the only space I have left is the ceiling.

The magnets will help...

I have a benchtop Workmate that the top tilts. Not sure it goes a full 90, though.

Woodpecker’s will come up with some jigs to use with it.
