My first (and only other) workmate was a model they don't even list any more.  When I bought it I actually put some stain on it to make it look used.....then 25 years later and after it being well used overt the last 15 i bought a new one.  Interestingly, I bought some parts for the Workmate 85 that I have had for so long and they fit very nicely.. so the design concept is still being used.  The only real complaint (if you call it that) is that I liked the "dual" vise operation as opposed to the now "one way" movement of the new table vice.  I like the size or the table surface area and the three slats for standing some wood on end for sanding and examination.  All in all, this is one of those tools I take for granted as to its usefullness.. I would recommend if you are a little cramped for space and need some mobility.
