I have cut pallet rack uprights down to make a workbench. Just cut out the diagonal bracing, cut them to the height you want, and weld the bracing back in. My welding *****, so Im sure they are not as strong as they were, but it works for my purpose. They make great work benches. I used...

Top it with a piece of 3/4 inch maple or oak plywood. Seal it with poly. Cost you about $40-50.

Here's mine. 40x54. 15 foot walls. Two 14x14 doors. Three man doors. 14x40 for loft across the back. I love the 14 foot wide doors! So glad I did the 14s and not the 12s. A big consideration for your door size is the driveway approach. Is it straight in? Or curved? You want to make...

5/8 OSB. Primed and painted. Works good, no maintenance, hang things anywhere, last long time. I do have sheet rock on the lid and around the bathroom/sink area. I covered the sheetrock around the bathroom and sink with FRP board. Awesome stuff for areas that may get wet.

I have a 40x54 with 14 foot walls and loft across the back wall. Just like BJCoupes says, I wanted to be able to have 14' doors on the gable end to fit bigger RV's and not o have any height restrictions. My 14 foot walls actually are closer to 15 feet because they sit on the foam blocks which...

Hello- brand new to the forum. I've been digging through hundreds of post on building workbenches and general garage organization. I have a new shop (40x54, two 14x14 doors, 15 ft walls, 14x40 loft, finished with 5/8 OSB) that is complete with the exception of interior organization. I'm...
