My Bitchin' Diamond Plate Cabinet & Table

As a few of you know, I recently left the urban condo living for a house. I am totally digging having a garage of my own!

While the garage needs a makeover, I decided that I would start by treating myself to some nice aluminum Diamond Plate furniture for my tools and stuff.

The large cabinet is 6 ft tall x 5 ft wide x 18" depth. The door is piano hinged and the cabinet is very very sturdy feeling. It came assembled except for the shelves. For anyone wondering, it cost about $580 with leveling feet and can be ordered on Garage Storage, Cabinets and Organization.

The table is 42"w x 36"t x 24"d and is super sturdy. It required 32 nuts and bolts to be assembled and was a snap.

The third item I got in Diamond Plate is a small fold down workstation but I haven't mounted it yet.

These things look so cool and best of all will not rust!

Since I now have a place to put my tools, I decided that I would do a little work on the Boxster. I installed a cool Momo steering wheel although I have to get some help to figure out how to make the horn work again. Gratuitous pics below along with my first 'fleet' shot !!!!!!

Got to Car Stickers, Car Decals, Stickers, Decals, Vinyl Sticker, Vinyl Decal, Windshield Decals, Create Your Own Custom Sticker. Find decal 1507. I think the size I ordered is Medium. The stickers come on a sheet of 6 or so. The area surrounding the stickers is clear when it is applied.
I am thinking about doing a whole racing stripe in them!

I could definitely use some better lighting. In time, in time. I think my garage spending is on hold for a while as we're doing some renovation stuff in the house. Sad, sad.

Good eye. Those are new...the old ones were sufficiently rusted that I got rid of them,....probably because I didn't use them enough!
