Something I would highly recomend to teams that are planning on building pits it that Extrusion (ex. Mosch, or MK Extrusion (we used MK)) is the way to go, because it is so easy to build, and easy to modify. Though it isnt the lightest thing in the world you would have an easy time working with it and transporting your pits to and from competitions. Putting Casters on you cabinets like we do and MOE has are the best possible thing (especially if you have a ramped trailer). Preventing Any type of injuries is the best thing you can do.

Pits are something I always want to have nice looking, because i'm in there all competition and I wouldnt be able to stand going to a dirty and unorganized pit to fix the robot in the heat of competition. It saves time too.

Plans for the rolling bench are in the link I put above - check out hte ppt presentation which has more details. I couldn't find a good picture of the pit setup (without a lot of people blocking a good view of the setup) so I'll stop by the lab sometime this week and take more pictures, especially of the second bench which is slightly different than this one.
