Thanks for the replies.? The depth needed for the lathe and drive is a concern, and I am thinking of a wider (deeper) top to give room for it all.? If the wider top was fastened to both the cabinet and wall it wouldn't have to stick out far in front.???Jeff, I could get one of those old heavy desks just for hauling it home, but I like the idea of lots more drawers in the newer tool cabinets. And Dave, I think that I looked at that bench at Home Depot and it looks interesting but again, more drawers appeals to me.? I need to do more measuring and figuring I guess.
