    Very nice job. The papertowel holder makes a lot of sense and the card clips are great!

    Thanks! The black thing is a battery backup, 600va. I got a spare 350va one I think if you would like it. I use them at work and sometimes get to keep them if the customer dosen't want them. Let me know.

    I did it over about a months time so i'm not 100% but I think the breakdown was....

    Melamine - $100
    Plywood backing - $5
    Flexwatt - $35
    Paper towel holder/clips/misc nails screws - $15
    Tubs - $37.50

    how long does it give you of power? I have heat packs right now but im not sure how well they are going to work. I'm a little nervous about them.

    It all depends on how much of a draw you have. I only have 5 1' strips of flex and my backup will backup a computer w/ 17" monitor for 29mins. So I "should" get about an hour or so I think. Not too sure about the 350 one.

    Heat packs in case the power goes out. Up here in cowhampshire it happens often during the winter months (depending on area).

    FIREball,
    uh...no

    juddb,
    I have a Ranco controlling the heat, it's actually behind the small tub on the first shelf. I haven't drilled through to mount it on top yet

    Yea they are pretty nice drills. I'm a low voltage installer, the thing takes a beating (not as much as a carpenter though). I went from a Dewalt 18v hammerdrill to that :O

    I love it! The oversized top allowing for the hanging paper towels and tools is a great idea. Those cage cards and the large clips to hold them is another sweet thing. Very lovely job! Want to come to my house and build me some racks? LOL
