|  New Hobby Table
Hay All. Well this being my first post here, I guess Ill introduce myself a little. I'm just getting back into the R/C thing after my cars have been sitting for a couple of years. Been into it since I was 9 or 10, just haven't played with them for a long time. Currently I have an Associated RC10T3 and a modded T-Maxx. I'm going to start saving up my peanuts for an Axial AX10, hopefully that will spark my interest back up in R/C! That being said, I figured I would need a new workbench to fix up the cars on! So my best friend and I whipped this out! Basic construction is of 6-2x4's and 1-4x8 sheet of 3/8 plywood. Decided to make it a little fancy, so we tossed in a fluorescent light with a switch and an outlet on the deck. The rubber mat is who knows what about 1/4" thick that came with a Toyota truck that we cut up for parts, but should be a nice work surface. Onto the Pics! Installing the light/wiring-Finke trying to look cool    Finished Pics        Now I just have to put it to use! Enjoy, Josh Last edited by buschmaster; 01-02-2008 at 07:51 AM. |

Very nice. You're going to like using it. Not to grab your thread, but you guys can use alot of existing things. I was going to my barber, who's shop is in a alley. This table ( some sort of drawing ) was next to a dumpster. I added casters to make it mobile in my shop, added a framed peg board, lamp, power strip and some of my tools. Very handy item !

Thanks for the warm welcome and the replies fellas. I just picked up a HPI Bronco lid today, so hopefully I'll put this thing to use soon! Quote:
How about both  Screen name over on Pirate as well. Look closely in the pic's that's the brew when we're poor! Otherwise its Sierra Nevada or Deschutes Brewery stuff--MMMMMM, Obsidian Stout........nomobux your table looks great! I'm thinking that I'm going to add some small drawer sets to this one on the top shelf for parts/etc. You know the ones with small clear plastic drawers? Josh | |
