So this weekend I was going to do some work on the bike but decided to backburner it in favor of getting my workbench built. I want to get the garage more organized and get my tools all where I want them, and the workbench is a big step in getting there.
I mounted the workbench top to two 4x4's with 4 lag bolts each, countersunk into the benchtop and then I used the little bit of superglaze I had left to coat those holes.
I mounted the Ikea kitchen base cabinet to the workbench and then used some 1x3 strapping to add some stability to the legs. The adjustable swivel feet I showed before went into the bottoms of the legs and work great.
Next time I go out there I'll grab some bolts and mount my vice to the table since the superglaze will be dry by then.
Here she is, all done except for the vice.
I swept the garage up and now I just need to get all my tools in order and utilize all my chest/drawer space more efficiently.
I also keep forgetting to install the network cable outlet I bought... that way I can have a laptop at the workbench. Need a bench stool too.
Regardless, the garage is now in a state that will allow for lots of work to be done on the bike this winter in preparation for getting it ready for me to race it
