Yea, I don't really want to sell or throw it away when I go study at Lincoln College... so I need to find a way to ship it to the UK if I can spend more than one year in the UK (work or otherwise), and store it in Taiwan during the one year along with my bandsaw, jointer, drill press, etc.

I'm applying for it... not sure if they will accept me because I don't know if I am "good enough" for them. Still waiting for the interview.

Beth, first thing I thought of was a Roubo style bench top as well. People are big on using Home Depot/Lowes doug fir. If you spend time on Google, you'll find something pretty on-point pretty quick, I think.
