Default my new workbench!

I finally just finished throwing together my new workbench/storage center. I had enough of all of the clutter across my garage so I made this thing out of some scrap wood (hence why the piece closest in the picture has a curve, a wicked warp was there that I could not take out). I used four different types of wood on one of the drawer boxes I figured this might serve as some inspiration to some of you who have one that is half way finished or just want some ideas. It looks kind of small but its actually pretty darn big.

I know the feeling. my cat is smart enough to stay away when I have anything that looks like a tool in my hand.
And rightfully so.
id skewer that little bastard with a sharpened 10" extension and throw him on the grill with some butter long before he'd ever enter my garage. did I say my cat? I meant the girlfriends.

no, I just haven't cluttered up this one yet. My other one is full with my t-56, and the other one has a rear end sort of living on it. This one will inevitably meet the same fate I fear.

every time I get a little organization going in the garage, in no time flat it gets more junk piled on. If I could get all my wife's boxes of junk out of the garage, I think I could get another car in there. Anyways, nice bench! Thinking about building one like it.
