Lucky Me I found a friend that does HVAC and has 4x8 sheets of flat stock sheet metal, he has offered to use the brake to make the bends for me. I will post pictures of the finished bench.
thank you for all the post and ideas!!!!

CTom and Denny Welch, I don't see your work station Picture.... Come on, lets see it

[Denny Welch]

I'm pretty sure Tom uses his front room whenever Carole leaves for a day or two with the kids.  My workstation is my garage and it usually looks like one of those Oklahoma tornadoes ripped through it.  I'll try to pick up a little over the weekend and post some pics.

Close your eyes and inmagine a woork bech made from 2X6 lumber. Now imagine an area about 3 feet long with some chinzy aluminum sheeting nailed to it. Now picture an old man who's over weight, bald and generally in a bad mood in front of it. My work area, well-defined.

I'm still waing on said buddy to come over with his miracle cure bench topper. Maybe I should start drinking his beer....but hey I don't drink so that won't work. I'm not cleaning house until I get the new top applique. Notice the professional terminology? That's a clear indication that until I move my operation into the house when the garage temp nears 40 degrees, There'll be no pics of said work area. I could give up a secret tool or function of some sort. Its bad enough I got neighbors who want to see what I do all day in the garage let alone put pics all over the internet too. Besides, Denny is neater than I am according to him. Right Denny?

BOY, am I working on getting to this scene...  I'll let you know if I need a few pointers Tom, but I seem to be getting there pretty well on my own.

Thanks,

Jerry

Only because you've met me, Jerry. lol  We need to get Denny, Andrew and I together at the factory...go to lunch. Gotta be a diner somewhere in Iowa near there, eh? That way you can see for yourself that I'm not the only one with weight distribution issues. Or thought-process issues. Where was I now......?

 Shane....Jerry would probably just say Tom.

[Jerry V]

Oh there's a pretty nice little Diner not 2-1/2 blocks from the factory Tom and you all are welcome, just let me know when you're coming so I can alert the local authorities.  They don't let just anyone into the "Mile Wide City" without some kind of clearance.

thought I would follow up, been trying to get things cleaned up and organized, but it is getting there

 



Found a couple bed rails from a childs bed, they made a great shelf, with a lip for clamps and to keep the colorant and glitters from falling off, Microwave was free from Freecycle.org. I will be covering the work surface in sheet metal as soon as a buddy picks up a large enough piece of scrap from a job.

Brent  --  Way too neat and way too organized.   Actually; Nice looking set up.

[biglewers]

My work area is all messy.  I try and try to keep it clean but for some reason it just doesnt happen.  Ill load some pics when i get home.
