I really like the counter top treatment. It is a great compliment to your shop, and an ingenious idea!:)

I just hate you guys that are actually organized instead of someone I know (hmmm...!)

Just kiddin:D Looks great!

A very clean look. What you're building in there looks really fun too:)

Try not to lose any small parts on those fleck countertops!

Keep up the great work!

The box is great! I originally wanted another Snappy, but decided to go with extreme for the price / i already have a few boxes. Came home from work last week to see that my wife "CLONED" the box!! She said "See..now you have another Snap-on" I originally removed the extreme decals cause they are too big for me and i liked the plain black/Chrome look. FYI..wife is not too fond of Snap on..($$$)

Great work, those speckled floors look great. I guess my one will have to be speckled now instead of plain grey.
Wonder if I can get the stuff in Australia???

Wish we could have guns like that down hear, Gov went mad and banned any semi-auto after the last nutjob took out some public in the street.

The tool chest looks great sets off the floor and doesn't say look at me.

The Ernst 40 wrench rails finally arrived..i originally went with the low-pro's but didnt like the way the wrenches were basically laying on each other. So far they are a big space saver! Going to get all the access trimmed today and add double sided sticky tape so the rails will not move around / fall over

ARbuilder Congratulations all that I can say is WOW. Your shop/garage has to be one of the best that I have seen on the GJ. If only I had the acreage and $$$, Looks like I will have to be happy with my 2 car man cave for now.
