OK, so it's a used house
but new to me. It has a 2 car garage that my "shop" half shares with the missus car. I'm a part time hobbyist at best - yard art and the odd repair once in a while. But now that I have a dedicated area to call my own, I'd like to make user friendly instead of setting up and tearing down every time I want to use it.

The red tool cart is my welding cart/table/grinding station, etc. The white cabinet was left by the previous owners - it's on wheels and I can roll it out if I want (the nut/bolt stack is attached to the wall - not the table). Tool box is mine and immovable (too damn heavy). The wooden upper shelves and peg wall was left by the previous owner as well.
I have another metal shelf unit that has most of my hand tools (grinders, saws, etc) so they're pretty squared away.

I'm thinking of making this my primary fabrication/work table by adding a a sheet steel top to it. Nothing crazy thick, but be able to ground to it if needed, able to use magnets to hold stuff, things like that. Dumb idea or is a steel topped work surface for welding useful enough to justify doing it?
Need to add a closer overhead light and better organize that wooden shelf with the coolers and junk. Maybe put the extension cords in the white cabinet and use that shelf for metal storage.
Anyways - I'm a noob, wanted to share what I have, and if you have an idea about something, point me to other threads with storage ideas, and whatnot, I'm always appreciative.
