Garage Storage Tip: Easy Drawers

[Eugenius76]

I thought I would share another garage tip. This is my buddy's workbench in his garage that we built last summer. He did not have the tools needed to make drawers, and I didn't want to try to make them at my house and hope they would fit when I got there, and struggle and fight to get them to work. I had seen this idea in a magazine and we thought we would give it a try, and they work great. They act just like regular drawers even when you pull them out they stay unless you pull too far of course.They will hold quite a bit of weight, and are pretty thick plastic. We found them at Sams for $8 a pc. I believe.. I know, I Know, wood on a metalworking site,:rolleyes: but use your imagination...Square tubing, flat stock,... could be done easily enuff;) If your wondering what all the splatter is, his wife ran over a quart of oil....it went EVERYWHERE :eek: (note to self..don't leave quart of oil in floor) Thanks for looking

**Note to self: check around car tires and on garage floor before pulling in/out of garage. NOTED **

Slick idea for those workbench drawers, Hotfoot. I got just enough space under mine to do one of those .... (Btw, solid old doors and kitchen cabinets make one heck of a sturdy workbench!)

Very cool idea. Those things are thick :eek: You will smell the plastic early enough to stop the burn before they are hurt to bad if something does set them ablaze.

What ever is a car doing in the garage? :eek: !

thats what i was thinkin rocky. i had a car in my garage once...i think it was in the 70's.

I converted my "garage" into a basement workshop. It had an ungainly cantilever door and the only car that would fit in it is a Model "T".

That's what I told my friend when we were building his garage...DO NOT LET YOUR WIFE AND KIDS TAKE OVER!!!!!! But he did:rolleyes:It just seems like the wifey rolls over a quart of oil and then quietly in her evil little head, giggles (my garage, screw his stuff). :confused:they just don't understand the love between a man and his garage:)

There is a direct and indisputable correlation :

Man Tools = Woman's Shoes

Man's Garage = Woman's Kitchen

Man's time spent of Weld Talk, and other highly Scientific Forums = Woman's time spent blankly gazing at the View, Soaps, and Chick movies

...what others am I missing ..??:rolleyes:
