This is a pretty solid little workbench. While once you figure out how it comes together, it is physically Easy to assemble th-cam.com/users/postUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh by yourself. But the diagrams explaining the steps are really pretty bad. I could not get the handle pins in all the way despite multiple attempts, so I just used a screw I had on hand for the 2nd handle. I could not get the first pin in further or pull it back out. You are supposed to hammer it in, but I had no leverage and the handle is plastic and I did not want to risk breaking it. I will get a lot of use out of the bench because of the convenient size and height. It does fold up nicely for storage. They even explain how to fold it so you don't get pinched...that is important!
From Michigan, great use of space and what a surprise to see a car on a rotisserie followed by the English accent. Good for you. There are car guys all over the world. There is a company here in the states that makes rotisserie's called Auto Twirler their slogan is a bit racy but here it is, Stripp'er Down, Turn'er Over, and Get on Top" Always makes me chuckle. Because the ladies can substitute the "er for a "em. Take Care and God Bless
Thanks so much for posting the video. I bought off a local on marketplace (3) heavy duty 12ft 36” wide uprights for $75 each. Beams were $15 each. Cut them down to 11ft and welded cross bars back in. Sanded them down and painted safety red and gloss black just like yours. Used 1”x4” furring strips to support the 3/4” plywood shelves so combined they are flush with the beam - I don’t have any heavy stuff so this works fine and clean looking as the shelves don’t stick over the beams. All I can say is I have my garage back. The foundation sticks out about 6” so I couldn’t put flush with the wall so I took that extra space and put 3 beams on the back side of the bench and ran a 2x4 on the wall to make 6” shelves similar to yours. Thank god I did this as I have storage for the small stuff and it works out perfect. Turns out I had 6 cans of pb blaster half full. A lot or work and the painting sucked but worth it. Thanks again.
Just a heads up on prep for paint. If you spray everything with "Dollar Store" oven cleaner and let it soak a bit, the pressure washer will take almost all the old paint off and leave a fresh surface for paint. At least I haven't found a paint it doesn't remove.
Well that looks great, you won’t want to get back into the house. Looking forward to seeing the updates on the mini. Hopefully you and your dad will be able to work together again. All the best for now, Norman
That racking, bench etc solution is brilliant! An awful lot of work, but it turned out great. In the thumbnail preview I thought it was going to be a bought-in solution that started out like that, too.
Bill USA glad to see your back .I installed the same type of racking cut mine down to 20 inches worded great holds a lot of weight .keep up the good work+
“Super Thorough” is the phrase that sums up this Son and Father team, whether it’s building the Mini or the extension to the garage. Never seen a thing out of place, even after a long hard day. Crack on boys!!
Hey man, Kevin here from Australia. WOW that looks awesome you dads going to be over the moon. Anyhoo stay safe and healthy and say hi to ya dad. ✌ Peace
Another cracking job you’ve made of that racking! I must have missed the notification but I’m glad I caught up. Best wishes to you, your family and hope to see dad in the near future.
Hi! Thank you, I’m really pleased to have it done. I’m looking forward to showing my dad, hopefully he’ll be down to the garage in the next couple of weeks so we can crack on. Take care 👍
Fantastic job better than stuff out of a catalogue yours is more robust ,I used similar for my bench from a place in Shildon very strong stuff at reasonable money ,you need some new gloves stay safe 👍👨🏻🏭
Hi guys,I was sweating for a few minutes there and then THE BEER FRIDGE appeared .And the all is good in the garage. Well done good video say hi to you're Dad cheers. Ron.
Terrific! You've put a lot of hard work into this and now reaped the benefits . That framework would hold a mini no trouble . I think you should spoil yourself and get some heating ! Guess there's no excuses now , back on the mini ! Which will be a dodddle after all this work ! Well done and look forward to seeing you both ! Take care and stay safe.
Hi! Cheers for the comment thank you 👍. Yeah it’s going to make working on the Mini and future project much more organised. Heater sounds good too 👍. Hopefully me and my Dad will be able to get back on with the Mini in the next week or so. Cheers 👍
You are such a hard worker,great job extending the garage,& sorting the racking,man of many talents,well done! Can,t wait to get back on the mini with dad,stay safe.regards Michael.🇬🇧
This is awesome. Exactly how I’m going to do my setup in my garage. I like the height adjustment. And the efficient use of vertical space for storage and workstation. And it’s heavy duty. Great job! If I can thumbs up this 1000x I would.
Thanks for the reply like, the reason I watched your workshop build is because I have just done my workshop, if you would like a quick look this is it th-cam.com/video/aFlXBysd9qA/w-d-xo.html cheers again from Aust.
That was a joy to watch you work. You made that look easy. One would think it grew there. Well done to you. These side videos are equally as interesting.
Absolutely amazed. Well worth the wait. Your video editing skills are first rate especially the engine being moved by the invisible man. Thanks for this, very enjoyable.
Hi! Thank you very much for that 👍. Filming the stop motion with the engine takes so much time, I actually filmed more but typically the camera went off in the middle of filming it and I hadn’t realised.
Haha! Most of them were ok with a bit of a sand but there was a couple that’s hadn’t been primer properly, the yellow paint was just falling off. All sorted now though 😁. Cheers 👍
Good work sir. I actually just put some new racking into my own garage today. Not as good as yourself ... just cheap ones from a certain orange diy shop ... still they do their job.

Take Care and God Bless
The joys of working in a small workshop, constantly moving a re-moving the same stuff round and around. Makes us more inventive I suppose.
Looks so much better with a lick of paint.
Looking very smart .nice bit of upcycling , trust your dads ok , stay safe
MORE MINI PLEASE!!
Just as i was eyeing up some racking at work to do the exact same thing
PHEWWWwwwww !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. You've been busy. love the colours. Well done YOU !!!!! :)
Cheers thank you 😎👍

Brilliant!! Thank you.
Looks very well
Really like that. It's given me some ideas.
best to have an organised workshop first and then do the Mini.
What a pleasure it's going to be to work in that shop now.
You did that with the same sort of care and attention to detail as the Mini. Can't wait to see the look on dad's face when he walks in.
Me too, I’ll record it for the next episode haha 👍
This video was one of the reasons I chose racking for my garage, very adaptable. Nice video 👍🏻
Looks ace mate, did the same in mine. The rail just above your head, I put LED lights facing down onto the work bench.
Just a heads up on prep for paint. If you spray everything with "Dollar Store" oven cleaner and let it soak a bit, the pressure washer will take almost all the old paint off and leave a fresh surface for paint. At least I haven't found a paint it doesn't remove.
That's an awesome workbench and storage rack.
Thank you, it’s definitely come in handy 😁👍
Great job so much storage glad you made room for beer fridge looking forward more work on mini give my best to your dad 👍
Great job on the rack/shelves. Looks awesome. Can't wait to see how the Mini turns out. Say "Hi" to your Dad for me, he a great fellow.
Hi! Ah cheers, I will do 👍👍

Thank you very much 👍 I’m really pleased to have gotten it done.
That racking, bench etc solution is brilliant! An awful lot of work, but it turned out great. In the thumbnail preview I thought it was going to be a bought-in solution that started out like that, too.
Cheers, thank you very much 👍, it definitely helps keep things organised.
The Garage and Workbench look good. It will be great when you and your dad can start working on the Mini again, looking forward to that.
Hi cheers thank you 👍. Definitely looking forward to getting back together, it’ll be a lot easier with the extra space.

Absolutely amazed. Well worth the wait. Your video editing skills are first rate especially the engine being moved by the invisible man. Thanks for this, very enjoyable.
Hi! Thank you very much for that 👍. Filming the stop motion with the engine takes so much time, I actually filmed more but typically the camera went off in the middle of filming it and I hadn’t realised.
It looks dead smart, but I don’t think I would have been arsed with painting it all. But, great job.
Great work👍
Very good Job
Looks great love my shop organized
Cheers 👍
What..when I seen you scraping them bits off shelfs I thought what stop man lol just paint them 😂 nice job though 👏
Haha! Most of them were ok with a bit of a sand but there was a couple that’s hadn’t been primer properly, the yellow paint was just falling off. All sorted now though 😁.
Cheers 👍
Looks awesome very neat

Good work sir. I actually just put some new racking into my own garage today. Not as good as yourself ... just cheap ones from a certain orange diy shop ... still they do their job.
Hi! Cheers mate 😁👍. Haha, that was a coincidence, can’t have enough storage.
I have dexion speed link and was wondering where to cut and weld but now thanks to you I now know
That's a great job!
Nice job👍
How come you didn't go with the big anvil? Mercy!!! I would love to have that in my shop :). Keep up the great work.
