A complete workstation in one bay. The Tinker Station is a 2.1m-high solid pine unit with a solid work shelf to build, fix and craft on, three storage shelves, and a pegboard back with two pegboard sides to hang your tools around you. It's 924mm wide and comes in four depths, from 300mm to 600mm. It's made in South Africa from heat-treated pine, ships flat-packed, and is delivered free anywhere in the country.
Use it in a garage, workshop, craft or sewing room, home office, or as a repair or packing station in a business.
Why customers choose it
- Tools within reach: a pegboard back and two pegboard sides surround your work surface, so everything hangs where you can see it.
- A solid work surface: one solid pine shelf, not slats, so small parts and screws don't fall through.
- Storage built in: three Standard shelves for boxes, paint, materials and power tools.
- Stand or sit: set the work shelf at standing height, or lower it and leave the space underneath open so you can work on a stool.
- Adjustable: the uprights are pre-drilled every 13cm, so every shelf goes exactly where you want it.
Which depth do I need?
Choose 400mm or deeper if you'll work at it every day; 300mm suits a narrow passage or a craft corner.

Get the most out of it
These add-ons turn the tinker station into a full workshop. Choose the same depth as your station.
- Sit at it: leave out the bottom shelf and fit base connectors (from R26) between the uprights at floor level instead. That keeps the frame rigid and leaves knee room for a stool.
- Put it on wheels: a wheelie base shelf (from R179) underneath lets you roll it out and lock it in place.
- Drawers under the work shelf: a sliding drawer box (from R314) fitted just below the solid shelf, for screws, bits and small parts.
- More working space: a pull-out sliding shelf (from R269) slides out when you need extra room and back in when you're done.
- Tidy storage: a pine box shelf (from R314) keeps loose items from rolling off.
Delivery and assembly
- Free nationwide delivery on every order, with no minimum spend.
- We make your tinker station in our own South African workshop, usually within 1 to 3 business days. The courier then takes about 1 to 3 business days, and you get a tracking link by email.

Frequently asked questions
Can I sit at it?
Yes. Set the solid shelf at desk height and use base connectors instead of a bottom shelf, so there's room for your knees and a stool.
Are pegboard hooks included?
No. The pegboard takes standard pegboard hooks and holders from any hardware store.
Can I add drawers?
Yes. A sliding drawer box fits under the solid work shelf, and a pull-out sliding shelf gives you extra work space.
