Stop at Bon Ricos in Evanston for dinner. Make reservations, hopefully you'll thank me for it later. 17 yrs in Evanston, small restaurant on main st, absolutely killer meal the wife and i had. Thankfully they forgot our appetizer, or we would have never finished our dinner. Come springtime we're heading that way just to eat there again.

I picked up my enclosed trailer from being stored outside last Friday.....don't know how it happened, but the fiberglass "roof front" was effin severely cracked. Yeah, I was pissed, but I needed to fix it.

Today right after work I hauled ass home and put some Flex Seal tape on the outside of the affected area, then silicone the inside of the cracks....when that dries I'll apply some Dynamat on the inside as well. Hopefully that will be a decent fix for it that also has some rigidity to it. I don't know if the fiberglass section is going to continue to crack out at this point, and if it does, is it really worth contacting TNT to get that piece for a 10 year old trailer?

Opinions maybe?

Damn... Trying to sell some 308 that I don't need and no one is wanting it... Maybe I should drop the price to $500?

Look for a smaller one of these, like the gallon size.

Ya, it's a big city with not much to do. Nothing is open on Sunday either, that really sucks.

Well, that and the liquor stores are really effed up....and the folks that I ran into while I was there, for the most part, kinda had a shitty attitude which doesn't help the image that sticks in my mind.

Decided to create a workbench for woodworking and other projects. Ended up with the solid door core for the surface, and the workbench will be attached to the wall and fold up. Still working through the leg design, but I think 1" or larger gas pipes will be used for legs. This way the legs csn be removed cleanly. I did not want the legs attached as the door will be next to a parked car and I am worried the legs will protrude too far. Also no one offered a good way to attach removable legs.
But of course life is getting in the way of finishing this little project.

Why not hinge the legs to the bench top so they fold up with it?

Another option (one I did) if there's room is build a storage cabinet under the benchtop (like half as deep) and use it as the stand.

This bench is going against the side wall where my car is usually parked. When folded it should be flatter than 3". If I leave the legs on I am worried the kids will either bump into them or ding the car door. I have another bench but it's boxed in on 3 sides and anything large is a pain to work on.

Solid core door = 1 3/4"
1 1/4" sub frame
1" pipe legs hinged or pinned to recess into sub frame = 3" thick bench when folded up and pipes recessed so car doors can only bump wood. Can't really bump at all if bench hinges up to wall when closed instead of down when closed.

Very good configuration in limited space and only have to handle 1/2 of door weight if hinged to wall. Legs are automatic if also hinged or pinned.

You think the door needs a subframe?

Not necessary, 1 1/4" is negligible for support anyway, acts as buffer/bumper for steel legs when folded closed, some depends on door itself. I prefer 3" frame on all benches but a good rigid solid core door can handle most homeowner duty jobs and save space. I would use three legs along the length regardless of sub frame.

Hmmm, now that you mention it 3 legs make a lot of sense. Dangit, I just bought 2 sets of 1" pipe and flanges tonight, guess I will have to go back.

The wall cleat to door attachment will be with 7 hinges at about 12" spacing. A bit overkill but i got all those ginges for $5 at Restore when I picked up the door. I think the fasteners will cost me more than that. The cleat is a solid poplar board I picked up and is same thickness as the door, so it should be strong enough.
The cleat to stud mounting will be with 1/4 x 4 screws from Lowes. I think they were for bolting garden box timbers together. I found info for thise bolts that says they should be plenty strong.

And yeah this is a hobby bench, so it won't be used like a heavy duty pro carving bench. Damit, getting exited to finish this project.

With the third leg and cleat/hinges you are using it will get the job done. Also consider how secure it in closed position. You hinging it up or down when closed?

Up. There is concrete skirt around the garage and it would be in the way. Two bolts will lock it in place, may add a rope or a way to lock it too just in case.
