Useful thing every garage should have.

Picked up one of these sturdy resin plastic tables on black Friday just for the garage. I've been leaving tools and parts on the driveway for years while working on cars and it finally occurred to me to get a table just for the garage. Definitely saves your back and time from reaching over to pick stuff up.

You didn't have a beer pong table in your garage?

This is a most excellent idea. I spent several hours yesterday cleaning, polishing, waxing and generally detailing my car. I really could have used a handy little table for my stuff.

Now head to Home Depot, find some casters that will fit the legs, and then you've got something.

Wasn't that the whole point of this thread? I'm surprised there's only one.

I have one in my basement. Have used it a lot of times in other rooms but never in the garage. I use my work bench for that.

I should add a handle, casters and a small top to my mini fridge in the garage. Have my tools and beer all in one spot.....

We hit 73 here too.



No garage work or drive, though.
