So this is how I spent my Friday night. Friend of mine wanted a add on bench to his tool box. Exactly what he wanted wasn’t really available on the market sooo he asked me to help him out… ![http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd255/zero5672/utf-8BSU1HMDAwODgtMjAxMDExMDUtMjE0Ni5qcGc.jpg](http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd255/zero5672/utf-8BSU1HMDAwODgtMjAxMDExMDUtMjE0Ni5qcGc.jpg) ![http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd255/zero5672/utf-8BSU1HMDAwOTAtMjAxMDExMDYtMDAzOS5qcGc.jpg](http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd255/zero5672/utf-8BSU1HMDAwOTAtMjAxMDExMDYtMDAzOS5qcGc.jpg) ![http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd255/zero5672/utf-8BSU1HMDAwOTMtMjAxMDExMDYtMDA0MC5qcGc.jpg](http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd255/zero5672/utf-8BSU1HMDAwOTMtMjAxMDExMDYtMDA0MC5qcGc.jpg) ![http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd255/zero5672/utf-8BSU1HMDAwOTctMjAxMDExMDYtMDA0Mi5qcGc.jpg](http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd255/zero5672/utf-8BSU1HMDAwOTctMjAxMDExMDYtMDA0Mi5qcGc.jpg) ![http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd255/zero5672/utf-8BSU1HMDAwOTYtMjAxMDExMDYtMDA0Mi5qcGc.jpg](http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd255/zero5672/utf-8BSU1HMDAwOTYtMjAxMDExMDYtMDA0Mi5qcGc.jpg) ![http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd255/zero5672/utf-8BSU1HMDAwOTEtMjAxMDExMDYtMDAzOS5qcGc.jpg](http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd255/zero5672/utf-8BSU1HMDAwOTEtMjAxMDExMDYtMDAzOS5qcGc.jpg) Bench, overhead lighting frame, and a backdrop…All 1/8" wall aluminum extrusions.
