However, since I'm going to a new method of framing, I'd like thoughts
on what you have used as workbench/shelving materials. The benches
will be about 2' wide and 6' long. Yes, I know, solid moulded Teflon
would be best, but quick and cheap is high on the list of attributes
I'm looking for.


I know you are looking for something other than wood, but these are my
favorite workbenches:

Cheap will depend on the cost of materials in your locality, but as for
quick I can knock out 3-4 of these in an afternoon/evening. I like to
paint them with cheap latex house paint more to make them easier to
clean rather than prevent rot. If they start to get messed up you can
just run a sander over the tops and paint them again. If you want a
special benchtop just lay some mdf over the top and when it gets messed
up, turn it over.
