I can only suggest a workmate with the vice clamp, that will give you the best of both worlds you will have some large jaws on the workmate and the vice clamp will help on small pieces other then that drill a hole in your picnic table and just use the vice clamp.Its very good i wish i had bought one years ago
CV3 has a good portable tool caddy but space sounds a premium with you ? other than that drill a hole in the picnic table thats already there , but i dont think that would go down to well.
WEll long term all tools sre worth buying as long as there good quality, buy good , buy once
but you dont need lots of tools to start ,but do get good ones they hold there edge better. a couple of carving knifes and palm chisels will get you going and mayby a clamp to clamp things to the edge of a table
I ddont like the workmate it has its uses , but the thing is not the right height for me.and can be back breaking when used for long periods.
My old bench was knocked togther with waste wood but i made it to the height thats suits me .
