And i had some bed frame parts. Mainly metal 3x3s a couple brace rods, and some osb board,

Cut four legs to 36" long. The two brace rods were screwe3d in place, giving me a front and a back assembly. Added some 1x3s across the brace rods. Just drill a hole through the wood, finger clamp it in place and drive a fine thread drywall screw through. Added some braces to the bottom of the legs. OSB at the ends, then a 1x4 from end to end. Time to put it back on it's feet

And add a top. Ran a 1x4 along under the front edge. I had to trim the top a bit. Top is screwed down to the cross members, and the front piece. Bench will now "rack" now. The front piece is also screwed to the legs. Time to add a lathe

Not the fanciest one around. Now, I need to add some lights and an outlet over there. Just stuff I had on hand, and the trash pile. Might just work.:D
