Stage one will be 12 feet long, 40 inches high, 27-33 inches deep depending on what I choose for a top. If I go with butcher block I'm constrained by what's available - I'm not spending 1-2k on a custom sized countertop-style butcher block. The wheels are coming off the new tool cabinet and it'll be fitted under the bench.

Stage two will be an angled L shape aimed towards the middle of the garage. Thinking 2-3 feet in length, and hinged so I can drop it and fit two cars into the garage if need be.

I cant tell you how well the greatstuff expanding foam (gaps and crack, ha-ha) works. I used it on the seams and then used a long razor blade to cut flush once it cured. :tup: Works great around outlets and what not too.

Grocery store didnt have any good looking Ribeye steaks so I picked up a nice looking porterhouse. Cornbread and grilled mushrooms to accompany the steak so it doesnt get lonely in my belly. :yum:

maybe make your own 2x4 butcher block style top. Wouldnt cost a whole lot and you and I both could do an irish river dance on top, at the same time, and it wouldnt break. :icon17:

Be carefully on which can of Greatstuff you get. The regular or the triple expanding. The triple expanding will ruin things if you're not carefully. :shakes head: You don't want to know. :shakes head:
