Default Garage Cabinets
Well almost done. Make sliding doors, chalk and paint.

Progress






Next step is work bench under the cabinets.

I didn't use any nails on mine. All screws. Material wise is about $500.00 for plywood. Cheaper in MDF.

Check this out. Asked my wife to post on our neighborhood yahoo forum to see if anyone had a table saw cheap collecting dust. I wanted to make better cuts. Guy emailed her back and said she could have this one for free because he got a new one for Xmas.

This **** is brand new and for free!!! Happy as hell!!!!!

Well scored a deal again! Went to home depot for some 2X2's to make a boarder for my peg board back under the cabinets and found a steal on a bottom cabinet.

Reg $139.00 due to the damage (crack in wood) which will be covered up $75.00
Peg Board $17.00 due to the damage (one end) $11.00

I should have some updated pics this weekend.

Btw 290/Spring Cypress homedepot has 20% off all in stock cabinets.

Garage stuff yes why not. They are just as good if I paid someone.... I am paying someone to do my living room built-ins. They start Tuesday and building them out of red oak.
