Finishing my DIY Home Office: FINAL
This has been a huge project, way beyond what I've done before and what I thought I was capable of! I've lost count how many times I wanted to give up and accept lost money and wasted materials, BUT... I did it!
In this final installment, I add a tonne of detail to finish the project off and make it 'look complete'.
If you guys would like a seperate video on the full cost breakdown, tools used and time invested, just let me know in the comments.
Appreciate you all

    I love the quick and dirty solutions. The only thing I can't figure out is why use a french cleat system if everything is just screwed to the cleats? I'm assuming it comes in handy in other areas. Lord, this is how my grandfather did his shop. He performed miracles in there. I love this old school approach to shop management.

    I'm absolutely going to use the 'prototype' tip. Who knows, my husband may begin to believe that I'm competent. "Wow. She really goes the extra mile. I've never spent the time and effort trying out a prototype. I guess that would make the real project more polished." Edit: It doesn't matter that the wall is the same color. It looks *cleaner* and more put-together. Makes a real difference.

    These videos have really brought me down to earth and made shop organization and set up seem approachable. Most of the other channels are way out of my league. How does anyone afford tools when they're putting so much money into cabinetry and an heirloom workbench? (Aren't workbenches supposed to be able to tolerate abuse? I don't want to tremble and cry if I screw through a plywood piece and into the bench top or knock a chip out of the top with the slip of a hand planer.) I need to set my shop up fast so I can get WORK done. I don't have time to be too precious about it. I can see putting effort into getting my assembly table level and square and I need things to be strong and stable, but I can't see the point of wasting money on drawer slides and handles for the miter bench or taking a month to customize wall storage with expensive wood and sheet goods. This is my grandfather's way. Function over form 100%. (He did the jar lids screwed under shelves trick.) If it works for you, it's doing its job.

    This really helped me more than you know. I've been sucked into one specific design (Proper DIY How to Make Easy Workshop Drawers from 1 Sheet of Plywood with Basic Tools - and about a dozen others), but honestly, this one is simpler, easier to glue up, *uses less plywood*, and actually gets me another inch of usable drawer space side-to-side. For what I need, this really is the way to go. Thanks for helping me stop overthinking this.

But nice to see a non expert buying a tool like this for there purposes, and it works for you. Not everyone is a master carpenter, most of us are in this to learn for a hobby.

    Excellent build! I've never actually seen a level garage floor. When I finished my first workbench, I noticed that it wasn't level. So I trimmed one leg slightly, only to find my new workbench still not level. I knew my measurements were exact when I cut the legs. After a lot more trial and error, I realized that my bench was level depending on the way I positioned it. Turn the bench slightly and watch it wobble.
