these work tables were on sale (50% off) and are actually quite sturdy, I've been modding on a grubby old table in the back of the house but no more!

note the MI sticker, which i received in the mail today as well
located nicely in the garage, ready for all-weather modding, couldnt mod when there was snow on the ground!
I also bought a small 3 1/2'' vice for the table, again, the one i'd been using was about 25 years old and didnt sit level
used some modding ingenuity to attach it to the table, seeing as I didnt have any washers handy

When you get the mesh and get it installed it will look good for sure. Thanks for sharing the photos with us, because I really like photos. Keep up the good work and Happy Modding to ya.

arrived yesterday, but no one was home and I had to pick it up at the post office today.
Before i put it in though, I want to pick up some thinner and clearcoat, as directed by bill's included instructions

I see the mesh, but what are the other items in that box?

oh, haha. totally forgot to type that out
a large sheet of carbon fiber film and a squeegee - no intentions...yet
and some u-channel trim - good to have around for future projects
also, I cut out the mesh, but its not glued in or anything. I'll probably make a trip to the hardware store this weekend to pick up some tin snips(to make cutting mesh much, much easier) and the clearcoat & thinner to protect the mesh
here's a quick cardboard template i used. I used the box MNPCtech used, it was a bonus tool lol

I'm going to be happy with this, it looks a lot better than the original plastic
