Sanding & Power Strip
Sanding
I sort of skipped a step but I think it is probably self explanatory but I used 1x6 pin boards to face the outside using a 45 degree miter cut on the corners after that was in place I had to sand the edges mostly because I suck a miter cuts but its nothing a sander and some time cant fix.
As you can see the corners are not exactly perfect to fix this I used a 14 dollar special sander to cut down the corners and smooth the edges out easy cheesy..
Power Strip
The next step is starting the finishing touches this part is power. There is nothing I hate more then extension cords so what I decided to do is take a rack mount power strip cut a hole in the top and slide the power strip right into the bench.
To do this I was going to use a jig saw then a friend of min reminded me how easy a circular saw can work when used right. Make sure you are very careful and use protective glasses when cutting out the lines.
To do the ends I used an old fashion wood chisel and a hammer. I will not be fastening this to the top at this time because in the end I will have a Plexiglas top covering the entire surface that is why when putting the 1 x 6 edging on i left a lip between 1/8 and 1/4 inch to hold the plexy in place.
