Had a bit of a set back to day, well not really a set back just a bit annoying.
I have learned this morning the place I was going to get the sheet steel cut and bent has closed down. This happened just before last Christmas they were offered a good price for the building so they sold it. (I don't blame them)
I was going to use some 14 gauge or 2mm sheet steel for the three upper shelves, for the bottom one I was going to use some thick plywood.
I might do what Darren did and use wood (plywood) for all the shelves.
In some ways it was good to find out now than later, I was going to build the frame then measure it for the shelves and get them cut and bent, if I use wood I will have to "amend" the design a little.
As they say "back to the drawing board"
