Some tools are meant to go around a window.  I didnt have a window so I made one.
All of the hardwood used is from pallet wood.  The cabinets are OSB.  The paint is from the mis-tint pile and the wallpaper boarder was the last one left in the discount bin.  It was too short to go anywhere else.
It takes a lot of crowbars to get those pallets apart.  Bigger really is better.
This is my most frequently used hardware storage.  One baby can provide enough jars to fill three of these cabinets.  Who knew?
Lots of people tell me I cant win.  Yep, well, I already have a broken heart so whats new about that?

Why would I want to win a Saw Stop?

So I can stop spending all of my money on tools and start spending it on wood. 

What would I make?

That's on the next wall.

Also thought about removable seasonal pictures, or maybe make it sized for travel posters. Then I can do my woodworking on tropical beaches or alpine meadows!
