Hypnotic Chimera
Directional Consultant Extraordinaire
The fact that the 2 x shelving widths almost exactly match the width of the frame is a complete (and happy) coincidence - I didn't know whether I'd be cutting a sliver off one of them, or adding a "tool channel" at the front wall interface - but was prepared to do either...
Clearly, there is a gaping hole at the far end of the worktop - but that will get filled by some more spare board of one kind or another, but until then gets a temporary fill - and this is how it looks set to finish. Just need to screw the boards down, plus a couple of other bits.
I now have a work top - and there is space to move around. Bit of wood storage under the bench, and my tool bags fit in the racks and the vac and cyclone stored under then far end along with some other potentially useful wood off-cuts, etc, not forgetting the lawnmower stacked next to the shed door.
Not everything is in a permanent place, yet, and the rear shelving will get a proper sort for tools-to-hand versus storage out of the way.
The last thing to consider for this stage is where to fit a vice/what type, and whether to put a few dog holes in the worktop?
