Normally I would post something that was built in the shop for one of the cars, but with the frigid temps this past 2 weeks, I decided to spend some time at the house straightening and organizing the basement. When done, I decided to do a once-over to Jen's garage bay. It's been filled with crap, dirty and a general mess since we built the house 10 years ago. She deserves it, so I went for 2 nice shades of grey, put in a chair rail, framed around the heater and trimmed up the steps. New handrails and 4 8' light fixtures finished it off. She was so appreciative and liked it so much, she asked if I could do the other 2 bays! Not happening as there is too much crap in that side of the garage.

Just to clarify, Jen is the snowblower? 

Do you have a lot of conversations with her? laugh

I built a couple of outfeed/work benches for my wood shop, and used them to practice my cabinet building techniques.  I used 2x4 studs and imported birch plywood, so relatively cheap material, but jointed and built like cabinetry.  MDF tops with hard wood edge banding and $10 sheets of remnant laminate from the plywood supplier.  Clamp face is cedar cut from rough sawn stock.  They have adjustable feet for leveling and detachable casters to move them around.

I hate to admit it, but I have the next 2 bays and there isn't room for it! Remember the thread about what to do with your junk when your gone, I forgot to add all the crap here at the house too!
