under bench storage
as all are aware we need a lot more storage.
I had an old half height metal stationary cupboard sitting down the side of house storing crap. Binned with the crap and and pulled it down to the shed and thought mmm I could chop this down and fit it under the bench eh?
but what about all the other space along side?
I had one of those SS steel tool trolleys one gets from Bunnings..measured that up and it will fit if wheels are off..but still have vacant space..ahah another tool trolley will fit just nice
you can see the front of cupboard and how much I needed to chop so that it fitted under the bench...tool chests allready insitu
front was spot welded so I had to drill out to pull apart without damaging..rest of cupboard, sides and back was just bolted on.. sheet steel was around 1.4mm thick

Although the gap next to legs is some 30mm, there are two front to back channels iether end ontop of the legs and wider than the legs which reduces the space available by some 40mm which just allows the three items just squeeze in leaving about 5-7 mm clearance from one end only so tight fit really...
now for some silver/chrome paint
