Home Depot was discontinuing 2×8x14 boards and they were on sale for $1 each so I bought what was left and dressed them up to board sized I needed. I figured this would be a cheap way to make some sturdy cabinets for my tools. I still need to stain/clear coat it and add drawers for drill bits and accessories but this is the meat and potatoes so far.

That was a great buy. I have started using a lot of construction grade lumber for my shop cabinets. I get a really strong cabinet, and it costs less than using oak or some other furniture wood. Great, sturdy cabinet, and cheap wood. You cannot beat that.
Looks like the cat like it too.
Keep up the great work and keep showing it off.

I didn’t realize that drill press’s came in black and white colours! It could be a nice home if you put in a few windows and a cat-door….LOL
Nice unit!

Nice cabinet. I’ve got to build quite a few, some that double as bases for tools because I’ve got bench tools sitting on the floor and a lot of clutter on some shelves. Hopefully I can find a good deal on some wood too.

I just want to know how you got the cat to stand in there.

I have a cat accessory in my shop that looks just like that one.
Seriously, that cabinet is a big step up from what I usually build for shop cabinets. It should last a long while and it looks good to boot!
