Just completed a work bench/tool storage for a corner of my shop. Will build another bench for heavy duty use but I liked the look of this one.

Always provide for the VISE!

A bench without a vise is...well, it isn't!

(Nice work! I'm just envious!!)

I would frame those pictures. If that bench was in my shop, this would be the last time you would be able to see the entire top.;)

Nice workbench!

I've been trying to figure out what to use on the walls of my shop. Is that T-111 siding on your walls -- or what is that? I like that it's smooth without the ridges that metal siding has. Yours looks really good -- just wondering what you used. Have any more pics?? Thanks!

Looks too nice to use!!!

I really like your LED strip lights and where you put them.

Thanks Eddie. Before I built my shop I asked you about the advantages / disadvantages of a metal building vs a stick built and your advice helped me decide to go with a stick built, which I’m glad I did.

CH4Ohio - The product is called “smart siding” but it is textured , you just can’t see it in the pictures. I debated putting drywall which I decided against because it is easily damaged. I thought about OSB but didn’t like the way it looks and would have required multiple coats of paint. This smart siding comes pre primed so I only had to put one coat of paint on it. Even though it has some texture it is actually smooth because it comes pre primed. I’m glad I went with this product. Even though it is somewhat more expensive than OSB it’s not that much more when you consider that the OSB would require multiple coats of paint to look presentable.

Great! Thanks for the info. I’m going to check it out!
