Still need to finish framing the tool chest. Bottom 2x6s were a tad too short, may go find some 2x8s. Table legs will run from top 2x6 to bottom 2x6s. On the plus side, staining the fence w a paint sprayer turned out pretty well for my first time using one. Made sure to park the Z on the street first too.

Edit: as you can tell by the pic, I'm standing on the bottom of rhe world. Suck it, Copernicus.

You’re giving me idears; though I seldom use 1.5x3.5’s for anything

I’m intentionally using long carriage bolts, from about knee high up & planning to put shelves around the whole inside & have plenty to anchor too

Watching the weather; as I’m planning to stick those other dozen 6x6 glider post in the ground & apply cement

They just have to be on spot, as once they’re 3+ feet down w/2+ bags of cement...they don’t have much flex

Then I’m gonna pick up a couple bottle jacks & set underneath post @ strategic locations & raise the whole box evenly...roughly about a foot

Then bolt the double bottom 2x12’s to the 22 cemented post to hold suspended while prepping underneath (after they’ve hardened)

At least that’s what’s on my blueprints I drew up
