One of our customers was closing their warehouse and we had to move their equipment to storage. Got a couple of things that were going in the dumpster.
The workbench is 72" x 30", all steel, made in USA. Just needed a good cleaning and a few bolts to make it solid again. Still need to wire it and add the recepticles.
The rolling cart is 60" x 24", 5" casters, heavy gauge steel shelves, made in USA. Not sure if I should leave it as is or cut it off just above the second shelf and make a tool cart out of it.
Whatcha think?

Now that is a NICE score! I really like the work bench. That thing is probably worth a couple hundred bucks.........

First, you know you ****, right?

Second, as for that score, the second one needs looked at, those poles sometimes are two pieces put together (normal if over 5' in height from my experience. Also, I would keep it together and put those tires next to it, on the top, with just a little modification.

Ditto on the two piece poles, I have one like that, it has interlocking poles and the shelves adjust anywhere on the notches.

Great score.

Wow, my first official "You ****" post. What a great way to start the new year.:bounce:
They had a 6' x 2' table with a stainless top I tried my best to talk them out of. No luck on that one.:mad:
The rolling cart is 5' high with one piece polls. Nice and solid. I'll have lots of fixed storage in the new shop so I'm not sure I'll need a cart that big(tall) that rolls around. Thought maybe if I cut this one down to two shelves leaving it around 36" high that it might make a decent tool cart. What are y'all with the tall carts using them for?
