What is your interior wall covering? I am finishing my pole barn shop, and was set on using white metal inside also. Yours looks like it might be like shower stall material, which would still clean up nice, and wouldn't be as loud as the steel.

its actually cinder block. i decided to block it so i wouldnt have to worry about stuff falling against it and messing it up. its also very easy to clean since i can just rinse it off with the water hose.

Nice shop, what model is the bend pak lift and can you also lift the truck with it? I am looking for a lift that can lift cars mostly, but have a truck that I use to tow them to the track. Chevy 2500 if that helps

thanks

Your workbenches look nice. Can you describe how they are built and the materials used? Thanks!

thanks, i copied these from a friend of mine. the legs are 4x4's with the shelf being framed with 2x4's and the top being framed with 2x6's. i used 3/4 plyboard and the shelf and 2 layers for the top and put 1/8" aluminum on the tops for a good work surface.

Could you take a close-up picture of the bench? Also, how is the aluminum secured to the plywood? Thanks!!
