    The last 2 from Amazon & eBay would appear to be just the hardware, as they say "lumber not included" in the item description.

    Sorry if I'm missing the point somehow!

    Hopkins 90164 2x4basics Workbench and Shelving Storage System
    Features:

    - Custom workbench of any length (up to 8-feet), width (up to 4-feet), and configuration, 36-inches high
    - Only 90 degree cuts are required, all hardware is included
    - Workbench and ShelfLinks support spans up to 8-feet (2.4 m) and 1000 pounds (400 kg) per shelf
    - Includes 4 workbench legs, 6 ShelfLinks; lumber not included
    - Limited two year warranty

    EDIT, Ha, you've just beaten me to it!!!

    You don't need a workbench just for setting the rigs on, u are paying for stuff you wont need.
    Depending on the weight, perhaps get a local engineering shop to weld you up a pair of angle iron "cubes" and you could have them drill the top angles to allow you bolt on maybe 25mm WBP ply and the bottom for four adjustable legs for levelling... and maybe some adjustable wheels for moving...

    Attached is just some booze assisted doodles

    Why don't you buy some metal table legs and bolt some ply sheets on top. ? Ikea have some very cheap and adjustable table legs for 10 euro. Alternatively there are loads of router/workshop tables made from angle iron out there.
