atkelar | Workbench Island: Drawer Update @atkelar | Uploaded April 2024 | Updated October 2024, 12 hours ago.
Back in July 2022 - yikes! Almost two years ago! - I set up two workbenches for my mini lathe and mill. You can see the project here: youtube.com/watch?v=rA_oc7iJncw
Since then, I have been using both of these machines quite often, but I didn't have time to complete the workbenches. This means that quite a few pieces of accessories are still where I left them when I set up the lathe... right next to it on the floor. And that needs to change!
I had enough time to think about how I want to organize the whole tools and other parts that go with the machines, so now's the time to use up some of the older leftover material and make some drawers.
NOTE: Sorry for the occasional "jerky" movement: I only discovered after the fact that my camera was set to "auto long exposure" and delivered a half-framerate video at times.
