Who doesn't need a solid steel counter for a workspace? Well, this counter definitely fits that bill. Using a base of mis-matched old metal cabinets, I transformed it into a chunky, funky work counter. The base is wrapped in classic corrugated tin, harvested from the fields of Missouri. The rust, dust and imperfections are souvenirs this metal shows off from its time with nature. Small pieces of angle iron are used on the corners to add some strength and keep the tin from snagging anything. The counter is topped off with an 8-foot slab of 1/4 inch steel plate. Needless to say, the whole counter is heavy and can take a beating. I went over the top with a sanding disc to create some cool swirls. Now, it's ready for action!
