Anyone know what the new workbenches do at the moment?

Handy place to put your in progress crafts.  
Gives a crafting speed bonus when used.

Thank you! As an aside I know from RL experience that while you can do pretty much everything without a proper bench, it kinda sucks and does take longer. I think these will be a great addition.

In terms of functionality of workbenches in RL my advice is to add a vice. (see what I did there?) 😀 but seriously, they do help a lot.

Vice grips are pretty handy. I don’t know how I would have made it through my welding classes without one. Though I think being all metal these workbenches probably have a vice installed in them.
