    Got tired of all my systainer boxes in a big stack on the floor so I recycled some old 3/4" plywood work tables from my current job into some shelving boxes for them , just trying a test fit of the systainers here , next I'm going to mount the shelving units to the wall

    This arrangement is only temporary storage till I build my shop , then I'll likely do some kind of Sys-Port set up

    Today was glue day for the bench top, what a stressful process that was, lol. Next step will be to hit it with a plane and belt sander.

    Just so you know, we fully expect you to have a Shop Build thread so we can follow it. Can't wait to see it.

    Did a similar build. You should jump on the workbench thread. SYP can make a decent reasonably priced bench. We would all love to do hard maple or another expensive option, but it’s just not practical for a lot of us hobbyists or DIYers.

    Plumber shows up 2 weeks late, complains about how hes not sure if he can hook up the sink and that theres things in the way. I might choke the life out of him.

    Yes, freakin plumbers are so unreliable. I do all my own now, unless I am screwed for time and/ or have to go out of town, then I make the call on whether it can wait until i get home, or not....
