OHH!! You got the Bosch out!

Did you also use glue at the corners or avoid that incase you need to tear it down at a future date?

I like that work bench! I've never seen one like that.

Who manufactures that?

Hmm...
Never looked much at Black & Decker stuff myself.
Even though they are the same people that make DeWalt Tools.


The reason is because if you use a B&D branded Tool on a professional job and it breaks?
Your warranty is no good!

The frame is completed and not a drop of glue or a wood joint in sight.....but plenty of angle brackets





A few coats of paint to hide my lack of precision





The stand is raised off the floor not only to make it easier to view the bottom tiers but also to create a little storage space for some of the boxes (about 20).

Assembled the cabinet, the angles don't look right but that is because of the way I was holding the camera against my chest to get as much picture coverage as possible in a confined space.



Wooden shelves....don't like them because you can't see through them what is is above and below.
