Garage Workbench Dimensions
Nice! Excellent choice going with a mostly bolt together assembly. I know we never plan on moving or even changing things around but this way if you have to you wont have to destroy it,leave it, or move a monster!!
Thanks Badawg!
Bolts and screws for me all the way. Like you say, if anything changes or if I move, it won't be a nightmare. It's somewhat more expensive, but I won't be hammering back in nails that come loose over time. I may have to re-torque in few years after the wood settles but that's it.
Look at your design and drafting skills you have.:cheers:
How the heck did you get that up on this site.
Is there any thing you can't do ?
except pick out a good women.:-D
Is there any little thing you need for you A body project I can keep an eye out for? Pm me and I will check it before I leave.
Well, besides women, I can't pick out nice clothes for work. I feel like a deer in the headlights in a clothing store. Jeans and t-shirts for me bro! Oh yeah, I'm not real good at the re-upholster thing either. Headliners scare me to death.
I drew the plans out in Visio and then saved them as a jpeg file and uploaded as you would any picture. Visio is pretty limited from an engineering point of view and these drafts wouldn't pass the muster in any decent college or engineering firm, but as former friend and machinist told me, "Your visio stuff is better than half the crap I get from our in house engineers." lol! I used to do quite a bit of mechanical drafting the hard way, with pencil, rule and compass and a lot of trigonometry. That was when the only PC was a Commadore64, lol! I'd really like to get myself a decent CAD program.
Mike, I need the headlight surround or "bezel" for a '72 Duster. I'd be more than happy to pay you for the part and shipping if you happen to find one.
BTW, I knew your eagle eye would be the first to have seen Maxi sneaking out. :)
Think about this. No one is the same height so 38" 39" 40" may not work for you. I like mine waist high. But Im only 5'8". So if your 6'3" it will be too short for you. That is why I said waist high. Good Luck.
Hey Duck! I did quite a bit measuring and mocking up while standing, sitting in a chair and sitting on a stool. I settled on 32" for chair sitting fine work, 40" inches for standing and stool work and 36" for the steel welding bench. The bottom of my elbow is at 48" with my upper arm perpendicular (vertical) to the floor and 40" is just a bit higher than my waist.
You are right, so much has to with personal preference and individual body build.
