And why would DF 4x4's rot away during your lifetime in a hanger that one presumes is dry enough to do good work on an airplane and/or anything else? I'd stick with the "manly" frame and use replaceable particle board tops. I agree. 25 years ago I built a workbench in my unheated garage. It has a framework of untreated 2X4s and a screwed-down benchtop of 3/4 inch particle board. Legs are 4X4s. Despite our damp Pacific Northwest climate, it seems as strong today as when it was built. -- -Elliott Drucker
