Cleaned out the tool/storage area and put together my new chinese made Bench.
I couldn't even buy the wood let alone hardware for the 160 bucks this table costs. Then all the labor with pre-cut and drilled holes.
Anyway this room is in the garage and one could hardly tip toe through the room that's around 13 x 7 foot.
Had to call the shredder dude.
Lateral file cabinet is a great storage area for ammo.
Nice 5" vice courtesy of harbor freight as well.
Now all I need is Ac and a cot.

2Looks great! My work area is getting messy.
I have the same HF vice - lol.

3That holster looks like its a period type to match the gun.
It's hard to find a good 5 inch vise at a box store these days.I love that one as it swivils 360 and has a pipe hold section below the jaws.
Whats cool about this bench is it comes with a wood vise. I believe the wood is Birch, pretty decent hardwood as hardwoods go. I may buy another. Heck, a sheet of exterior grade plywood is running 50+ bucks.

4Ya gotta respect good bench dog holes. There are precise little metal feet with flat spots that fit those holes, and they're really useful. It pulls as well as pushes.
Too clean. Last pic is what awaits. ;-)

Here’s a pallet cleanser, that I made this past week:

The wood comes pretty much unfinished so i gave it a light sand, water popped it and gave it some Watco Danish oil in cherry.

8Thanks buddy. The Cimarron that goes with that rig, isn’t really a practical pistol (at least I can’t shoot it well) so I made this holster For my S&W 66-3 to replace it.

9I'm really certain there are two workbenches in my shop.
Even if I can't see them right now.
Yours is very nice!

10Dang, price drop with super coupon. They can hardly keep them in stock.
This, prolly my last voluntary purchase of Chinese product until China denounces Russian war against Ukraine.
You can pick up a 50 cal metal ammo box for 5 bucks if you spend 50 bucks.

12Looks nice TNG, that price is tempting. I'll have to stop at the local Harbor Freight and check it out.
