So get creative with it... just DO NOT use the screws they give you. Like pretty much all things, the screws that came with it were junk. Buy some good #9-2-½" screws, and it'll work great.
Enjoy!

About how much for lumber these days to complete this? what kind of wood wood you recommend?
I used all 3/4" plywood on the flat surfaces and 1/2 plywood for the work space backing. Thanks for looking! I hope the photos do it justice.
Requested parts list below:
For the casters: 4" heavy duty casters. Screwed to wooded angles (I used 2x6 cedar wood, left over from an arbor) with 10 x 1 stainless steel screws and 1/4" washers (see photo). To mount the cedar wood, I used 9 x 2-1/2 Particle Board screws (see photo). The cedar wood was placed where I wanted it and marked (see photo), to make sure my casters cleared the rotation. Then I just cut the wood at a 45* angle above the mark. Not rocket science.
To make the lower shelving supports: (see updated photo with measurements). I screwed them together with the particle board screws. Two per each contact point. When I finished making the "wings", I just traced the edge on the loose piece of shelving to mark where I was going to saw my cuts. Once the shelving piece was cut, then I screwed everything together. Bottom shelf, middle shelf, then top shelf, each held down with 6 x 1" Drywall screws spaced about 12" apart.
The lower legs and upper 2x4 pieces were all screwed with the stock screws.
The Light: From Home Depot - Model # MNSL L48 2LL MVOLT 40K 80CRI M6 Internet #300263608 Store SKU #1002098190
This light has to be wired. No wiring is included. You have to purchase a three prong wiring kit, as long as you need it. I plugged it into the power strip.

It really depends on what size your table will be (LxW by how many levels... it can have 3 levels, but you can just do 2, top/bottom if you want.)
If on a budget, you could do it for under $100 with the shelves. Just the table, if making a 8L×4W table, it would take ten 2x4x8's for entire frame, with top cross beam, and 1 sheet of ½" 4x8 plywood/osb on top. That could be done at HD price $ of around $70 plus another $10 for screws. (It comes with screws but they're 💩. )

Since it asks for 2x4 lumber and plywood, your choices are most likely pine or pressure-treated pine for the 2x4s. Those are also options for the plywood, plus many stores also have hardwood (oak or birch, usually) plywood options. If you're using it as a potting bench, outdoors, or in wet/humid areas of the house, use pressure-treated 2x4s and pressure-treated plywood (3/4" for at least the table top, but you could go down to 1/2" for the shelves if you want). Otherwise I'd go for regular pine 2x4s, 1/2" pine plywood for the shelves, and 3/4" plywood (pine or upgrade to hardwood) for the table top.

Spaghetti glued together is a cheap alternative
