Benchwarming party is tomorrow!

Finished up the workbench. Made with mostly free 2x4s, with some extra 2x6s purchased.

Half laps everywhere.

Two sjoberg vises because I just have too much money to spend.

Dog holes.

Flip down casters.

Adjustable leveling feet that I designed and 3D printed. You can kick them over with your toe to adjust and get rid whatever wobble appears in that particular spot.

Brackets to install garage lights

Had minimal clearance between these overhead shelves and the garage door, and the perfect light spacing was a few inches away from the cross bars. So I designed these snap fit brackets to offset the lights inline.

The lights make a huge difference, much more pleasant to work in the garage.

What I learned:

  • there is some sag because the screws aren't at the top of the bracket. I would add a tab that protrudes on the side so I could add a screw higher.
  • the screw face split on layer lines on a few of these. Still works but not perfect, so I would make the screw face thicker.

Also printed cable management clips
