I've been dying to get a workbench into my garage since my first day in the house and today that becomes a reality.
I downloaded some free BYO Workbench plans from HammerZone.com. Cheap and Sturdy Workbench for around $20?? Yes please.

Pulled out my trusty electric drill. (No more Z car as a workbench lol)

Grabbed a pile of 2x4s. Lowe's cuts these for you and rarely charges you. Also makes it so you can fit an 8 foot long piece of wood in your girlfriends VW Golf (Thanks hun).

Of course I couldn't leave well enough alone.

So I picked up a quart of Rustoleum truck bed liner.

Gnarly stuff. As black as my soul.

Nice textured surface!

One warning though. This is one product that I WOULD NOT use in an enclosed area.
My garage was wide open the whole time I was using it and I SWEAR I saw an otter run under Emily's car... Probably not smart to operate heavy machinery afterward either.
