Alright guys, it's about as done as it's gonna get. The brown drawer that you see, I picked up on the side of the road one afternoon. Glued one side back on, and it was good to go. I'll add pegs to the peg board as needed, and hang the air filter/regulator when the time comes. I'm sure I'll think of something else I could've added. In case you can't tell from the pics, the bench is mobile, by lowering the "landing gear", then made stationary by raising same. I can't take credit for that idea, it's a Norm Abram original. I looked at the rear of the peg board, thinking what a waste of space. Hmmm, perfect place for a painting table. Ok, I'll make it foldable and self-stowing. The legs pull out of the sockets, and stow in their own clamps. I'll also make a lazy-Susan for it when painting time comes. Gimme some feed-back. I think I'll pick up a Harbor Freight lighted magnifier tomorrow. Dad would've got a real kick outta this. Camo
