Workshop "sub-goal" complete

Haven't had a ton of time this week to work in the shop for more than a few minutes at a time, but I've been puttering around in there when I could.

As stated in an earlier post, I've been looking for a way to save space.  I discovered this link on Instructables.com for a fold down workbench.

I'm certainly no carpenter (sorry Grampa Sword), but I think my version turned out well enough:

When not needed, it folds down against the wall.

Lift the top up and fold out the legs....

Legs out and ready to use!

Aside from a buying a couple of wood screws, it is made entirely out of scrap 2x4 lumber I already had and an old large cupboard door as the top.  Not heavy duty, but an excellent table to work on light weight projects.

I think I'm starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel :)

Next up...  a rolling workbench for heavier items and a place to store some of my tools....
