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.

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.
