Those nooks and pantries are still eating floor space though. If you want a cubby hole for your toolbox so it's flush with the wall then you're basically just bringing the entire rest of the wall into the garage. If there were no closets or built-in nooks in houses they would be shoeboxes as...

Normal bases are 34.5" tall.

This may wind up being a garage project if I have to make the things. I have an older rental property that needs new bathroom cabinets. The countertop is still in place and I'd rather not remodel the whole damn place to fit the new standard sizes, but none of the big stores here sell 30" tall...

Nice. How many years did you spend drilling holes?

So the welding machine is on a drawer or something, right? I think Fyrme might be right; drawers on the sides would let you get to stuff mid-project better than flopping up the lid. I like the idea of using a big Jobox like this though.

I can't support headlamps enough. This streamlight is pretty nice for low bucks, but it is a bit of a battery hog. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00064YL7S/?tag=atomicindus08-20

You were misinformed. The filler metal and technique affects out of position welding. You may have heard that 90-98% Argon / 10-2% O2 or CO2 doesn't weld out of position, but that would be because of the spray arc transfer, not the gas itself.

I have two sets. The first is three units of 30"w, 18"d, about 7' tall. 3/4" plywood with Dado grooves for the shelves. Top bottom and middle shelves are screwed in place, the rest are adjustable. One cabinet has full width shelves, one is split in half, on is about 40/60. I have doors that...

I assume the 48" width is outside of the vertical legs. Can you get a full sheet of plywood on one of these things?

I assume you know, but if someone doesn't, 1 inch = 25.4mm

x100 Always have it loaned to someone else and life is grand.

Why a bed, sink/counter in a workshop that's 10 feet from your house? The sink and bar area seems redundant with the enclosed (bathroom?) area that has two sinks.

What does a person do with nine claw hammers?

Acquire a barbell and weights. Pick them up daily. Add weight progressively. Pick up wheels with ease. Marvel at your strength.

That sold out quick.
