Built me a new work area!

After the shitflood........time to make things bigger and better. My dad came out today and we built a few things.
Workbench - 2x4 Basics Workbench Kit, made 8ft wide, 32" deep. MDF upper, lower and mid half shelf. SOLID kit!
Shelves - 2x4 Basics shelf kit (2 kits). 8ft wide on this one too. MDF top....not enthused with that, I should have done 2x4s. Oh well, nothing is going on the top anyway.
Both have a 1/2 in strip of metal epoxy'd to the front (3 on the shelving unit, 1 on the top of the workbench). Magnets will be used to keep orders, well.........in order.  Organization is KEY!
Total time to build the two.......considering that we were taking our time - about 3 hours. Enjoyed the time with my dad - we work well together.
It wasn't the cheapest project......by any means, but WELL worth the time, effort and materials.
Ok, enough chitter chatter, here's some pics of where I'll play with YOUR headlights!!

Very nice! Hopefully in a few weeks, there might be a set of 3rd gen tail lights on that bench!

Sweet!
Tomorrow all of my "stock" gets moved into here - right now....all I have sitting there is a set of brand new 07-08 headlights and fogs. They are going to be getting the royal treatment SOON! Gotta get caught up!! Not having an area to work for 2 weeks has really REALLY made me want to slap a ho.

Oh it will!
So far, only thing I don't love is that it is a little shorter than my last one. But, I need to go get me a bar stool to sit on while I'm working. I did all the others standing........time to relax.
