Question Need substitute for Jerker workstation -- Help?

I haven't been able to figure out why IKEA chose to replace the Jerker workstation with Fredrik, which doesn't seem to be as rock-solid as the earlier item had been.

Does anyone have ideas about what the best substitute workstation might be? [I'm open to assembling from doors and leg sets meant for other purposes, but I'd really like to have attached shelves and the ability to bolt on [or use heavy duty magnets] to hold tools or other light objects.

Many thanks. I know there should be an office section on IKEAFans somewhere, but I haven't been able to find it using the search function.

there are a lot of Jerker workstations on craigslist, they pop up at least once every two weeks.

Thanks! I'll be on the lookout for one. And if another solution appears in the meantime, that's cool, too.

Definitely craigslist. I've seen 2 just the other week on the LA freebie section, even.
