Nice!
Any bank should be able to order them directly from the treasury, they normally get a money shipment a couple times a week but you have to order a 500 dollar box.
It's pretty scary how much little money a bank has on hand.
We refinanced a house we had remodeled and pulled 67,000 out of it to start our business, I wanted to cash it before I took it to the bank for our commercial loan just to see what that much money looked like, figure I would never see it again.
They told me they didn't have that much available and it would take 3 days to get in.

Well they delivered the freezer this morning, perfect timing since the cows are ready as well, I'll wait to pick them up on Monday.
Been picking up odds and ends at Harbor Freight, Newsettler and I spent 3 hours there the other night and had 2 carts loaded and it was just over 200 dollars.
Still trying to figure out what I want to do with our old sandwich station, my thought was since I have 6 feet between the workbenches I can set this in the middle of them and use it as a work top, it's on casters so I could move it side to side if I need more room, it's only 32 inches wide. I'd like to put either 3/16ths or 1/4 inch steel on top but I would have to buy a 4x8 sheet and the thought of trying to lug a 350 pound sheet of steel isn't too enticing to me.

Decided to go with 3/16th's, it is only 245 pounds for the sheet, now we wait for the plasma cutter to be here Monday.

Spent all day yesterday organizing, most of the equipment should be showing up today.
Picked up three of these storage units, stackable my rear end.
Was testing laying them out.
Really wasn't digging the shelving or the workbench, I decided to screw it, it's my workshop and I'm going to build what I want, heck with what my brother and newsettler says.
So I cut a piece of pine.
I was happy with the height so I set up a clamp to use as a length guide and cut up a bunch more.
And ripped down the opposite T&G on two pieces and pounded them in place.
I just face screwed them down through the top.
Did the same on the other side and added in a shelf.
I like it.
Decided to just finish off the whole work bench like that. So I added a temporary brace on the end to take down all the brackets.
I also added some cleats to the top shelf and screwed them to the ceiling, Now I am happy with the bench.
Thinking about doing the same on the other side today. Need to get the equipment in though to see how much room I have to play with.
