Vote if you keep your workbench clean or dirty, then show us a picture of your bench in the state that you generally keep it.
I can tell you from years of traveling around to others shops, that I am in the minority as far as maintaining a clean benches goes. I get a lot of shit for it too...lol.
I remember back to my childhood - my dad's workbench for his carpenter tools was always really well organized, clean, and well taken care of. I remember him always saying "A cluttered bench is a cluttered mind!" I guess that's one thing that always stuck with me.
First two pics are from 2005? when I lived and worked in OR.
UPDATE: Last two pics are from 2009 at my shop in CA.

I suspect Nate did a little cleaning for the pic..I mean who doesn't have a pile of rods on their right side? I'm a neat freak for organization, but I've had the same look as that without cleaning to...you sur gots a lotta room my friend.

This is how it looks as I come and go. Maybe not mid-session, but sometimes. When I'm done with various procedures and I take a safety break, I go into auto-cleanup mode, knocking off random trashy gathers and putting the rods/tools back. It's amazing what 30 seconds will do 5 times a day. 2-1/2 minutes? But that's how long it takes to pull two points...HAHA! It's all good! I'm not preaching! Rock out with your nasty selves!
Here's a snapshot of my current bench. I had a new gable go in over the weekend, and i had to smash some durock down. I love excuses.....
dread cutter
fucking spotless, see...

It ain't where you're from, it's where you're at.
Really.
I'm a dirty bitch! ....Oh i mean bench. hehe
had to take mine since nobody had the balls to show their dirty one so far. mines dirty front to back see.
thought i'd put one up of mike luna's so i wouldn't look soo bad. hehe
this is the only pic I can find of my bench set up... I'm on a differnt bench now, but the layout and mess are about the same.... a little messier now days since I have more crap in a smaller space....

Hey Nate, if a cluttered bench = cluttered mind, than what does an empty desk mean....???
I dont have pics but my shit is super dirty. stringers, frit, powder, shards etc....

N8, you get off on nasty benches? that must by why you made this poll, you got tired of searchin GP for nasty little benches. so you said to your self. "myself" Hmmm...... "if i make a poll of dirty benches, it will be like a Porn page for Me." and i can "get off" a lot quicker and not cut in to my work schedule. LOL man
Nate, you must be hella busy if that big ass steel drum is your scrap bucket...LOL...
He said he cleans up rather often,while taking a safety break.
It must be an ashtray.
oooooh. LOL....
You don't want to see my bench right now , its kinda sad, it is just being used as storage for shit
