Great idea. Thanks!I'm in construction and two sheets of plywood will be your friend. If he can drop the lift right into the garage, put plywood down anyway so the bed doesn't scrape your new concrete.
Love the progress.

I've decided to avoid that struggle entirely by working until I croak. It'll happen sooner or later, hopefully later..Effectively scheduling work (and sticking to the schedule) without having the structure of a full time job is one of my biggest challenges as an old retired guy. I thought it wouldn't be all that tough to do, but it is. The struggle is real.
IIRC it's a minimum of 7' before you can use wiring that's "unprotected"/ Behind drywall, plywood, etc qualifies. You can use a 4'x8' sheet of plywood and, with a flush mount panel, run your circuits up behind it.I still plan to use MC cable for anything more than 5' or 6' above floor level.
Word of advice, if it hasn't occurred to you on this, lock it before rolling.... of course, if the drawers have latches this doesn't apply quite as much.rolling tool table
Does this cart have a pair of locking wheels? If not, you'll definitely want to add some. The carts we use at work are stainless steel, and the largest ones are about the size of a decent bottom box/cabinet. They're quite heavy when loaded up with product, supplies and an oven. We have to lock the brakes so the cart doesn't move, even if someone runs into it. Our carts have the brakes on the steering wheels.As I continue to move stuff into the garage, it's become clear that I'll need more tool storage capacity.
I've looked at buying something used, but prices for rolling tool cabinets are really high around here.
Turns out that Harbor Freight has what looks like a pretty decent rolling toolbox/workbench with 9 drawers and a wooden top. They sent me a 15% off coupon, so yesterday I snagged one. It should work as rolling tool table quite nicely. I may add some sheetmetal, or at least a layer of sacrificial wood, to the top.

It has two locking wheels that swivel, and two wheels that don’t lock or swivel, pretty much like my Craftsman tool chest.Does this cart have a pair of locking wheels?

I'll try to get a picture of one, so you can easily see what I'm talking about.
