Yep its a door blank but I made it from a hollow door plank because I could not find the 36" solid door at the time. The middle is solid where I cut out the hole but the ends are not. I found out the hard way not to drop a sewing machine on that bench. I accidentally had a machine slip from my hands only a few inches above the bench and it punched a recess in it. So now I am going to cut it out and beef it up then put a thin sheet of birch plywood back on it and seal it all up again. It will be okay until I do the addition to the studio and I can move all of my quilting to the new part and then I will use a solid door plank for the work bench there.
