Workin on a new garage... This is approx 12" x 28". It is being built to fit inside a barrister book case, to reduce the dust.This is all nailed together with pins, NO GLUE! Scale lumber, on 16" centers.Anyone else in here like the open stud, and plywood sheeting look? or maybe the fumes got to me...

Chief, Your Skulls n Bones left with the postman today!
And as a matter of fact, I am lookin... The big quest, would be a drill press! tuff order! And I'm always looking for the not so common extras you would see in any garage. oil bottles, Antifreeze jugs, garbage cans etc... you get the picture. The real things that bring it to life! If you got a list or something, I'd be glad to pay your price... This has become an addiction, and I need a fix, lol! When you start drilling bolt holes in valve covers, so you can hang em on the wall... you know it's got you by the arse!

NOW THATS USING YOUR NOGGIN. I couldn't see a seam on them and they look to match the frame very well. Yes, Blue tint would have been great but it looks fine as it is. Again, Great Job!
