I'm not really sure if this is the correct section to post this in so mods feel free to move it to the correct place.
I have a very small single garage workshop / garage where I do some wood mashing, some bits of mechanics and all that kind of stuff as a weekend warrior.
A few years back I decided to sort my storage out and moved over to using Euro containers, mostly 300 x 400mm in various heights. I also have some large 400 x 600 x 440mm high bins for paint cans and cable reels etc. They all stack very nicely as thats how the euro boxes work.
I have one fixed bench which is just a 2400mm slab of worktop along the back wall but it never seems to be that usable.
Today I had a play with some scraps and made up some dollys for the larger containers and adding another offcut to the top it makes a pretty effective mobile bench and storage that all stacks away in a corner when not in use.
Adding some ribs to the underside of the work surface locks everything into place.
The only problem so far is no access to the storage once its set up, however you do seem to be able to buy them with access https://www.3jc.co.uk/parts-and-storage ... e-90-litre
Whats people opinions? If I get rid of my fixed bench I can then have different tops on there for router table, MFT style, a sunken one for the mitre saw to keep the in and out feed at the same level. Anyone done something similar with the euro containers?
