Dude, I wish I had some artistic fabricating skill. I can't draw or weld.

I get accused of over engineering and over building shit all the time. My target has always been to build stuff that will outlast me, sort of a legacy deal. As I get older its getting a little easier...

But you sir, make my stuff look like IKEA grade work. That bench will not only outlast the newlyweds but likely the human species. I hope the AI-bots that inherit the earth will appreciate your design and craftsmanship as much I do.

Well done @Travmon

Love it! Very nice. I'm tempted to show my wife because she likes this kind of stuff, BUT I would then be on the hook for making one haha
