Looks classy!  Does it also hold real beer?

I love craft beer... but drinking it during the day is not condusive to getting work done, nor does it hydrate you as well as cheap beer that's like sex in a canoe.

I am actually with you 100%, just pokin at ya.  We're inundated with crafts here and I'm totally over the 7-12% double imperial what have you as well.   Luckily "session" beers are getting popular.  I like drinking beer, don't like being drunk.

Interestingly, back around 1978 my job at a flat stock place was a convenient distance for a fairly short bicycle ride, however it was all uphill back home, where my hydration reward was usually a Miller Lite.

Jason's shelf would also add a degree of safety if used for the dreaded spray stickum not falling in and taking a trip to explosionville
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

Fine craftsmanship with a furniture grade finish.  Should allow the lint and spray tack to wipe right off!

when we use webtack, I'm sure it'll be living here too...  (we HATE the stuff, so we use it as little as possible)

sorry to burst your bubble, but they have these at Harbor Freight:

http://www.harborfreight.com/tool-storage/all-other-storage/magnetic-spray-can-and-screwdriver-holder-69320.html

or

http://www.harborfreight.com/Magnetic-Tray-with-Screwdriver-Holder-69319.html

We have both and they are freaking great.  They also have a paper towel holder that is nice as well.

I was going to buy one of those, but this was a nice way to spend a bit of time in the wood shop, and use up some scrap wood...

working in the wood shop is therapeutic :)

it is...I just rebuilt our stairs to the basement.  Last year I built a custom window seat in the kitchen for more storage(i knew we might get snowed in so I bought the materials the day before the storm).
