Just a few commits, used paint is as good as used toilet paper! You can not mix different brands of paint together, the mfg's don't use the same chemical compounds, you can get a chemical reaction. Also if you are painting concrete that takes a different set up from standard paint for wood or drywall. You can put a binder in the paint to help it adhere to concrete. Also without heat most paint doesn't work well in low temp conditions. I can help with the construction on the tables etc. Sam's club has heavy wire storage racks that would work great for the warehouse. They can be mobile with wheels or some can be static. I built a bench for reloading, I used outdoor treated wood bulsters for my legs, precut to just the right height look good and with 1 4x8 sheet of plywood I got a top and a self for storage and it helps steady the bench. Used 2x4's for the stringers and used 6 legs cost was reasonable too.

        Yahoo went to the store and bought what they thought was grey
        paint for
        their office (they bought the cheapest paint available) and
        that is how
        their ugly purplish color came about... so you never know what
        lies in a
        bucket of paint!
