Good morning fellas.
I thought I'd upgrade my old tool bench I built when I was 15 years old. Almost 40 years ago. I built it out of rough lumber and she was a bear. Very solid and never had any problems setting a small block and 904 on her with no issues. (together)
Well a week ago or so went down to our only Home Depot and picked up a couple of those cheap 52" 9 drawer Huskey roller chest. Anyway picked up the lumber and paint over the last week. Yesterday was my first day off. So I decided to tackle the build. Started around 8am Friday morning. Picked away at all day yesterday and the wife went to work last night so I thought I might as well pull a all nighter. Was taking the paper and tape off just as she was getting home from her 12 hour shift.
Here are a few pictures over the last 22 hours.
I'll start with the old one heading out to pasture. Still a great bench but nobody would ever want it these days. Then the ones of the new one from start to finish. Hope there not to many pics.
Enjoy I hope.
