Well, it’s been hit and miss for the past 200+ days. I didn’t track the slow progress well because I was constantly frustrated with working around “stuff” in the way. And I didn’t set up the first post appropriately to link them together in a blog series the right way. But here’s where it stands now. I finally feel like I’m getting organized. Boxes further beefed up. Bench top mounted on base with angle iron and risers. Vices back on the bench. Casters make it easy to pull away from the wall. Six sliding trays installed. I’m out of order too, of course. I should have wrapped the boxes with the façade of my choice. I’m leaning toward red oak in the style of mag cover. Still need to make a lever to raise it up on set it on removable “blocks” when I want it to be rock solid. May show my wall cabinets, etc. when I get them fully fitted with my hand tools.
