My New Work Station!!!

[eaglewing]

I've always wanted to get a Kitchen Cart but never really found exactly what I was looking for without spending close to a thousand bucks...

SO, I made my own:


Started out with this Commercial Drawer Cabinet I found at Sam's that has a Cutting Board Top (which I will never really use but it looks good)




Got the BASE put together and before I do the drawers and doors it's time for the MODs!!!!



Got a piece of cutting board I had and turning it into a shelf...







The WET SPOT on the cardboard is where one of my dogs tried to Baptize my new cart!!!

The shelf will hold my Butcher Paper and have a little 'pullout' basket under it for whatever!!!







Mounted my Magnetic Knife holder...



The other side gets a Papertowel Holder and a regular towel holder...




That's as far as I got for right now, just need to put the drawers together and figure out what MODs to do to the inside for storing things...



Gona look for a spice rack that I can attach to the back and have it elevated up high. Gona have to hold BIG BOTTLES tho... Haven't found the right thing yet.

nice table i also want a table like that, might get expensive with all the mods you did, that butcher block isn't cheap i don't think, nice job post more pice when you finish please.

 

[cheech]

That is awesome with a drink holder, ice chest, remote control and a seat you got it covered

 

[eaglewing]

The Cart was $165 at Sam's, the bill from Lowes for all the MODs so far was about $70

The magnetic knife holder was $34

Now You need a 1500 watt coil and thermostat system, drill a 2 inch hole for the top vent , Chrome stack of course. Then install 3 or 4 Stainless steel racks where the drawers were originally supposed to go.
A woodchip pan and water pan. Maybe a windowed oven door on the front.

A double layer of 1500 degree fahrenheit orange & yellow flame paint job.

Bigger wheels with a spinner kit. Quadraphonic sound system, with a 60 inch plasma TV. Oh Yes, I almost forgot, most importantly a drink holder!!!

There goes your $1,000 budget shot all to hell.


PS . Cool looking rig so far.

Congrats on making that a user friendly workstation. Nice job my friend, points to you.

UPDATE!!!

The drawers work PERFECT for large container spices...
Love the bigger bottom drawer.

And I'm adding a wooden pullout shelf either on the bottom or up on the shelf...











I'm lovin this thing!!!

OH, and I'll get that freakin' Drink Holder in there somewhere!!!!
