I work out of my garage and do everything out of work stations. I have to be able to reconfigure the shop for whatever process I'm doing. Out of past experience I learned that a big work bench or any flat surface just ends up being a catch all just like you.
So I have three work stations that have flat surfaces that are process stations. One is welding, one is powdercoating and one is a jig table. I also have specialty surfaces that are pulled off and stored when not in use. I put these on a heavy duty X stand that is a music keyboard stand. Handy as a shirt pocket because it will hold over 200lbs and can be adjusted to any height. It also fold flat.
I have a tendency to buy cheap HF stuff used instead of fabbing up stuff 'cus I'm lazyMy welder cart is one of those HF cart/handtucks that you can find in yard sales for $5. I've got several laying around. My plasma and Lincoln 175t fit side by side on the cart so everything is down low. The Co2 bottle is in between the cart handle uprights and my clamps are on the handle. Like you I love having everything in one compact unit.
Good job and thanks for taking the time to share.
