All in all for $500 and a tank of gas, I think it turned out pretty alright. The plan for me is to store this bench top on the ceiling, and bring it down as a work table while working on a given project, and then stow it away again to save floor space. Someone had made one of these a project with their son locally, and was selling it for less than the material costs (not including the fancy rulers used in the Paulk videos). On another note, I picked up that bench in the back yesterday based off the Paulk smart bench design. I fully expect that to be completely lit once I get the third row away from the wall installed and the beam coming out of the light actually directed at that area of the wall. The angle of light that comes out of these LEDs is fairly low, so you’ll notice the bottom ⅓ of the wall is still a tad dark. Highly recommend these lights if anyone is in the market for them. Installation was pretty easy and only really involved drilling into the drywall and splicing connectors for power. Overall I can saw WOW these things are quite bright, and much cheaper than the options from the box store. There are the Barrina T5 LEDs off of amazon, and the set of 8 was ~$55. Finished installing the first set of 8, 4’ long LED shop lights tonight.
