With the time change and cold weather (26°F this morning), I will be doing the majority of work and filming in the garage, so I had been contemplating making changes to the garage. As luck would have it, my coworker was renovating his garage, which gave me the opportunity to pick up a free work table and cabinet. I cut down each end of the table, stained all of the bare wood, purchased a $17 task light from Walmart, a power strip from Lowes, and spent the whole weekend in the garage making it work. The table is now full of Sonoma parts, which means they are no longer in the room that we will be using for Thanksgiving. I (read: my wife) loves it when a plan comes together.
All that time in the garage without any progress on the truck was tough, but this will pay dividends. Having a work table is much more important in my 40's than it was in my 20's.

Please tell me you kept that "before" work bench. That looked nice. Of course, all the rest of the new to you stuff also looks great!
