Advanced 1700
Advanced · HOBBY Series
This bench is manufactured in three different sizes (1500 mm; 1700 mm; 2000 mm). The bench is made of block laminated beech wood of the highest quality. This model is used by professionals as well as handymen and hobby joiners or carvers. Thanks to the three different sizes, it is suitable for every workshop. An open shelf is used here for storage of tools or material. Thanks to two rows of holes for bench stops, this model enables clamping of innumerable material sizes. In the bench base, bench stop holes are bored; in combination with the vice, they enable vertical clamping of the material. The bench top includes two rows of up to 31 bench stop holes (depending on the model size), thank to which this model offers clamping of diverse materials of innumerable sizes. The bench is supplied in a dismantled state, with detailed assembly instructions.
Supplied, delivered and assembled across the UAE and GCC by ADW Machinery, RAMIA's exclusive distributor for the region.
