So last night, I sat down with a sketch pad, ruler, and pencil, and spent some time designing my workbench. I think after about 90 minutes I’ve got 90% of it down, with measurements. I can adjust it easily if I need to.
But, as I said, I really do appreciate all of you that took the time to help me out. Maybe some time when I have a little more time, I’ll go in to one of the programs and, over the course of a few weekends or a summer, learn one of the programs. They definitely DO look quite useful, for the person that takes the time and has the ability to learn them.
Thanks again.
