How much do you want to spend?  Kreg has an assembly table with T tracks and 90 
degree corners and all but that is more for cabinet work.  

Making the toys you list I'm not sure I see the need to put out lots of money 
on a fancy table.  Not to say there isn't a need, I just don't see it myself.  
Maybe I'm missing something.

How are you wanting to clamp things.  If you want built in vises or something 
on that order, you'll pay a fortune.  If you are looking for something to 
assemble your projects on, you could make a very sturdy table by gluing a 
couple sheets of 3 quarter plywood or MDF and making some legs and braces for 
it.  

Help us out with what type of clamp you want to use.  Also, I would think it 
better to use a square in your hand but again I may be missing something in a 
special need.

  Subject: [BlindHandyMan] wood working table recommendations please?


  Hello,
  I am interested in finding a work table or bench with built in features such 
as clamps and maybe a good strait guide for making sure that pieces are square 
and so on?
  I make toy trucks, trains, cars, that sort of thing.
  Someone had suggested a black and Decker work bench, but I read some bad 
reviews.
  Of course, that doesn't always mean anything.
  What do you suggest I get in one or do you have a store bought one which you 
like?
  If you suggest my building my own, please indicate what sort of clamps and 
where to put them, and whatever else you might can think of which I am not 
writing here.

  Thanks a lot,
  I am not currently doing anything much in my shop but would like to be at it 
again.

  Matt
