If you have very little space and need a light duty workbench, take a look at the folding plastic picnic tables and chairs. I got one used for $7 at my local thrift store.
The folding table  needs backing up with wood or other reinforcement if you are clamping work to it, and you can't pound nails on it unless you get creative, but I have found it very handy for light sawing, sanding and painting which makes up the majority of my tinkering.
If you have more space than a small balcony, I recommend you look into getting old computer desks which are currently dirt cheap. Also, I have seen old steel desks that weigh over 200 pounds that would make great shop benches if a ply surface was added, and they went for scrap metal prices. You don't have to spend a lot of money on shop benches if you are willing to improvise.
