Got bored so i "pimped my workbench" lol

I put a new top on my workbench and thought, hey i am bored and i love my Mazdas...

Broke out some math, a ruler and a sharpie.

Basically it is just roughed in right now, i plan to paint the Mazda lettering blue with a white background then varnish the **** out of it for protection.

your pictures do not work. A popup asked for the password to view the directory.

That's pretty cool. You need more BBQ brushes though.

No, he's The AntiRice, that's why it was so hillarious when he freaked out.
He is a tool though, and kindda grumpy, more fun was when my other colleague polished a giant smileyface in Antirice's weathered red Saab bonnet.
Kind of mean but we still laughed our asses off.

Well, it was pretty decent out today (45 degrees) so i painted in the lettering and varnished the whole thing. It still needs a couple extra coats of varnish and trim, but overall i am pretty happy with the way it turned out.

What do you guys think?

Looks good. It would be a shame to mess it up.

Thanks guys, i am throwing 3 more coats of varnish on it tomorrow for a total of 5

So it should be really durable, then i am going to trim out the edges and it should look real nice and finished. Kinda sucks cause i cant use the bench while this is drying, lol.

And yes, i emailed a MOD about removing my first embedded image to stop the annoying pop up password prompt.
