One day I'll have time for these. All of them require no screws, nails or glue.

That would be one big CNC router to mill a workbench flat on top! The low cost ones (for wood working--like cutting out kitchen counter tops) never looked that stiff to me. I'd ask carefully to see how flat (planar) they can hold on a large single surface. My 3" aluminum angle is stiffer than the bridge on most of the lower cost CNC routers that I've seen.
I've done the hand work to resurface a maple butcher-block workbench (3x6 feet) and it took a long time. If I'd been able to "machine" it planar using this router approach (which I learned later), then I would have been able to focus on the hand cabinet-scraper work that generated a lovely surface.
