Metalworking Table

From rLab
The new metalworking table

The metal table is now storing most of the tools that used to be in the rack on the north wall, in order to clear that out so it can be re-made bigger and better. All drawers have a 3 digit reference

First digit - F or B for Front or Back side of the table

Second digit - Row, numbered starting 1 at the top

Third digit - Column, starting at A on the left
