Had all my bearcave belongings removed today, 2nd coat of floor paint applied :thumbsup:
Think I’ll freshen the walls up with some white emulsion & then think about a bench and a toolbox on wheels :P

I hope the 2nd coat of paint went well!

I splashed out on a wheeled toolbox a couple of years ago (wasn't too dear from Aldi) but it's in my shed as I don't have a garage. :cry: One day.........!

But it's so much easier to find the tool you want when they aren't all scattered about in random places!
Coupes because stunning!

I’ve got a small Halfords toolbox with drawers, it’s not only tiny but it weighs a ton to cart about :o

Good exercise though!

That's why I bought one on wheels - mind you I don't have room to use the wheels! :rofl:

That's not a toolbox. It's a huge sideboard on wheels! :thumbsup:
