Those are good pots, and $20.00 is a bargain for sure.  :hairy   :hairy

Well, the view out my window kinda looked like that, once.
Then I got down here to LaLaLand and I didn't even have a window.  Just as well, palm trees don't really inspire me.
As far as the workbench goes, wellllllllllllllllllll, even when I was building it, it was cluttered.  Y'know, Kevin, I think workbenches and desks are kind of alike.  You know, the sign of a sick mind is a neat desk.  Conversely, the sign of a sick mind is a clean workbench.   :laffing :laffing  :luff:
