Re: efficient shop/garage help
When i was building my garage a local shopping mall was being renovated and a buddy of mine was doing the steel work. He phoned me up and asked to bring my trailer down there and he will show me why when i get there. Well i got there and he had scored to wooden support beams the were 22"X10"X22'. Perfect bench tops for our garages. I built some 4x4 supports for them, left room for a 2x4 shelf underneath, covered half the top in sheetmetal and walla!, perefect bench for anything i could throw at it.

Re: efficient shop/garage help
another source for benches, old commercial office spaces used solid oak doors or solid doors with a oak veneer on top, they are usually 8 footers, by yea wide trim off about 6 inches long ways and instant HD bench, I have them in my old shop and this one and you can toss stuff around on them and beat things until there broke and hardly a ding on the bench, the crazy part is most buildings have some stored and they just toss them, they say there more work to re install a used door system then a new one, anyway call a few building management places or stop into a highrise by you and you will probably be given all you can haul for free.
stop by home depot on the way home and drop 10 bucks on 2 by 4r's and you have a super strong cheap bench Bud. |
