I may have missed it. What's the height are the walls?

It looks great!

Wall height is 14’. But if I had it to do over, I would have gone 16’.

Re: Finally...a new shop at the house

I didn't do $hit to Walter this weekend, but I did some cleaning and organizing in the shop. i.e...new bolt & crap bin.

Also a new Beer Drinkin’ sign and a shot of the shop dogs

Re: Finally...a new shop at the house

Good to get the shop organized. I need to do the same in mine.

Mind if I ask where you got your bolt bins? I've been looking for some and most of what I find have cheap frames and plastic bins. Been there, done that and the bins get brittle and crack.

I bought them from Zoro.com. If you do some searching, you can find 25% off coupons, so they are very reasonable. They are made by Durham and seem to be plenty beefy. I’m actually going to get 3 more, I like them so much.

Re: Finally...a new shop at the house

Thanks! Looks like Durham has a good selection. Now to decide how many, where to put them, open-bin style versus removable bins... so many decisions
