Geology Workbench

On our third year, Mom is sick of a house full of rocks.  We cleared out the back of the garage and built a geology workbench.  We'll use the top for current year's collection and the bottom for prior year's collection. We ran new electricity and insulated the wall.  Each of the stairs has a little shelf as well.  When we get the bottom built to match the top, we'll empty out our old gray drawers to the left and take another pic.


Right now we have some granite, diabase, and quartzite from Pottawatomie County, some chert from Riley County, and some sandstone from Clay County on the shelves.
