ORIGINAL: saramos

Here's a shots of my garage workshop. I made a free standing island buildboard. The base is two metal shelving units, and the buildboard is a torsion box made of MDF and pine. It's topped with 16 guage cold rolled steel, which is tough on the pins, so I use magnets instead. Two walls of cabinets are made from MDF, birch ply and poplar. Total cost for the cabinets was about $600. I put those foam floor tiles down, makes for comfortable standing. I've added lots of tools since this photo. Also included is a small air conditioner, a space heater and an automatic ceiling vent. I'll have to clean up a bit and take newer photos.

Scott,

Can you us some details on the buildboard? I have thought about doing something that would free up the table saw. Occaisionally, I need to use for cutting wood.

Thanks,

Chuck
