Hey Jack, awesome thread! I’ve been looking through the posts to see if you mentioned what product you used for the decorative aluminum strip that you’ve glued under the cabinets, but I couldn’t find the answer anywhere. Is it aluminum roofing flashing?

I posted a video showing how I took the lockers from trash on the side of the road, to being a garage centerpiece. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The lockers were a bit too tall for some everyday items I wanted to store in them, so I started building additional shelves every 13" The 90degree adapter was a lifesaver because the drill wouldn't fit inside the locker. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I built a base to keep the lockers off the ground and filled the gap using Great Stuff to keep anything from rolling under them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A coat of green paint to match the rest of The Lucky Garage I added aluminum roofing flashing to increase durability and it also makes sliding the wood over the supports much easier. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Leveling the first shelf took the longest, but the rest of these pre-built shelves went up relatively quickly after that. I built a jig to ensure that the lag bolts would be evenly spaced. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks! Metal is considerably more exact (in terms of measurement methods) than wood is, so that can be maddening to get used to. If you just get used to making your second measurement with the actual piece you're going to cut, you should get used to it exponentially faster. Also, the router...
