Evening all,
Moved into a new house and now have a decent double garage. The back wall already has a very sturdy wooden workbench along the length.
I want to put a steel skin on the top of the bench to protect it and make it a durable surface to work and weld on. First question, what thickness of steel sheet should I go for?
I'm looking to make up some modular shelving that will fit in the nooks and crannies - anyone done this and any tips on design? I was thinking of using 40 or 50mm x 2 or 3mm angle to make the uprights then make frames for the shelves out of 3/4" box and top with chip board.
Got a 10" I-beam which I'm looking to mount a trolley and winch on and also looking to put a couple of 16A supplies/plugs in for the portamig.
Also interested if anyone has any must have/couldn't live without tips?!
Thanks
