That would be a picture of my patio table or kitchen table.  No dedicated work space, just plop my stuff down wherever is convenient.

What Monterey said, but it doesn't make me popular with my wife.  I have consequently left glue marks on the table and the bar.  Whoops.

Actually it's a reloading, gun cleaning, arrow making, string making, cresting bench.

He is wasting a lot of space there;  no coffee maker, no microwave, no beer fridge!     :confused:

I'd imagine any GOOD beer fridge would be too big for the bench top...

Maybe have a barrel in a fridge to the side and just the spigot on the bench?

I've often thought of adapting plans for a fly tying bench.  something portable with drawers for glue and tools, and slots to accommodate small bins to organize feathers and nocks.

that sounds like a great plan Murray- you need to draw up some plans for us. maybe build a bench and i will test it for ya- not far for you to deliver it either   :D

reloading bench-has all the archery stuff on the table beside it.  seems more arrows than bullets these days.  How can you have a man cave set up without a nap-recliner?

its always easier to build two or three than just one Wayne.  May have to throw a few together and send one out your way.  Personal, hand delivery of course.
