. A very basic but effective project. Was fun to make and practical.

Top tip toby, never do woodwork in just your socks and those summer shoes don't offer much protection either.

If you did drop something sharp or heavy, aye curamba that's gonna hurt.

Well done I keep looking at my bare garage walls and think to myself "what a waste of space"

Maby I should of cropped images first lol, I've already been warned about this, my vans where my safety measure
Tho touch wood I'm unharmed or worse.
The day I get a workshop the fun will really begin.
Thanks Carl, this is a really fun and easy project, and when you put nice tools on it it's comes alive it now lives on my bench in the tool well

Like buttered toast...sharp things falling have a distinct tendency to head straight down like a Cruise missile straight for your feet...as mentioned at some unearthly hour this morning whilst wandering around a field in Kent!

But that's enough of shop safety!

I really need to get my workshop more "sorted" but then I would probably never find anything again! Your use of limited space is admirable and all the time these projects are honing your skills in preparation for college...great stuff and nicely documented. Love the pics!!

Cheers mate...now...cigar shaves...mmmmmmm :mrgreen:
