Robert, we have one. If I am not mistaken, we bought it at Pricemart in Santiago some years ago, and I cannot remember the price. It is however a 'home' version and not an industrial version judging from the picture. Don't buy a home version

It's called a Black & Decker WorkMate and I've had one for 25 years; indespensible for a home workshop.

Rob,
Do you want the same thing, or are you up for other ideas?
For example, would you want to throw one together yourself using 2 x 4's and a quarter sheet of plywood, if you had the pieces to hold it all together?

I think I have seen them in Pricesmart here in SD. I checked the other day and all they had was a foldable ladder

Canadian Tire here has Jobmate clones on sale for $10, but that will not do you any good, they are quite handy....
