Many of the ideas presented for workbenches and storage can be implemented at low cost, or even for free if you're resourceful. There are step-by-step instructions for the most essential and practical procedures, including basic electrical wiring sufficient to connect a bank of lights, a compressor, and a welder circuit.

This book is designed to help the practical hobbyist mechanic make the most of any available space, balancing looks and functionality, while staying within almost any budget.
