About Us

South Dakota contractor Clint Birkeland grew up around professional construction, working on large residential and commercial projects for decades. He spent years searching for the perfect portable miter saw stand, but none provided the quality and flexibility he needed.

Eventually Clint decided to build a workbench incorporating all the features he required. In 1999 he invented the Power Bench® to be the strongest and most ergonomic industrial workbench on the market.

After designing the first Power Bench®, Clint realized the stand had versatility and could be used across different industries. In 2000, Lee Unlimited began manufacturing and selling the Power Bench®, and in 2004, the company increased its manufacturing space and expanded operations.

As head of Lee Unlimited Research & Development, Clint has used customer feedback and staff suggestions to enhance the original Power Bench® design. As the most versatile bench on the market today, Power Bench® boasts a host of unique features that make it a must-have tool for any shop.
