Claim:
A portable workbench, comprising: a plurality of top members defining a working surface; a support structure supporting the top members and including a clamping device for selectively traversing at least one of the top members toward another of the top members to permit a workpiece to be selectively clamped there between; a collapsible frame connectable to the support structure; a pair of wheels coupled to the frame; a toe plate rotatably coupled to the frame and positionable in each of a retracted and an extended position; and a latching mechanism operable to latch the toe plate in at least the retracted position; wherein the portable workbench is positionable in a raised position in frictional contact with a ground surface and a collapsed position having the wheels in contact with the ground surface for translation of the portable workbench, and wherein the toe plate is movable from the retracted position to the extended position to permit the portable workbench to be further employed as a hand truck.
