Steel stool drill table

[Gragson]

Tight on space and bench pillar taking up too much room on a workmate as need the bench space.
Repurposed this pressed steel stool. Small footprint but very sturdy, 1/3rd the space of the workmate.
Shaped and fitted some plate for the top and shelves. Was thinking to add more bracing but don't think it needs it. If it would take the weight of a half cut 20st bat fastard it should be fine.

That’s a good use for a stool, I normally just flush mine

Drew Prichard would sell that stool for a couple of hundred quid!!

Yeah I was just thinking that. Industrial chic I think they call it. The other issue is strength. Folded items like that have enormous strength when they are perfect but the tiniest deformation and they will fold like paper, especially if they are carrying any weight.

Perhaps ironically, you'll now have to knock up some seating in case anyone visits.
