This may be the very first thing I ever built. I built this years ago but just took the photos today. I wanted to be able to get my microwave off my counter, as my counter space is extremely limited to begin with, and the microwave ate up a big chunk of it. I cobbled this together out of 2x4s, I assume they were salvaged. This is long before I started getting access to old 2x6s. I remember the plywood was definitely taken from a busted up old crate. I had to have a guy I work with drive me home and help me carry it inside (he put it inside his SUV). I don't remember if I had the recycle bin back then but it did make a convenient home for that as well. As well as my suck wrapper and sous vide circulator!
I did not have access to my cut off saw as I do now so I remember being surprised when the frame that makes up the top shelf went together and was blatantly out of square. Doesn't matter, still does the job quite well. Not sure why I painted it blue, I don't think this was old paint, I think I bought it but not sure why I chose that color.
Here is a very early photo I just found of the shelf apparently around the time I brought it home.
