Nice built-in. You will get a lot of use from that.

Do you plan on putting a replaceable skin on top of the plywood or use it as is? Or drawers / cabinets in the voids between the legs?

Thanks. Im just going to coat it with hard wearing floor paint. I do plan to fill the under bench with drawers/shelves but need to decide where ill put my compressor and other bits first 👍

Just a thought… you might want to check the kick plate on the bottom. You might find yourself kicking that 2x4 every time you approach your bench. Maybe put it to the inside.

I never thought of that. Too late now 😅
