Garden, Fish, Game Cleaning Station

We wanted a place to clean or pot vegetables, flowers, etc. (clean fish and game also). I had a spot on the East side of my shop right beside the garden so decided to put it there. This would be in the shade after around 2:00 pm. I had a lot of left-over treated lumber from a couple of other projects, and after buying a little more for posts I was able to build it. Nothing fancy about it, but it is solid, big and useful. All screws are weather resistant. I had saved a dual tub stainless steel sink from a rebuild at work ( now retired ), in case it would come in handy someday. I had already installed an outlet and flood lights back there for future use. The one corner is of a composite wood to use as a cutting board or whatever. We didn't have water close so used connections to use a garden hose for the inline water and one also for the drain to go into my fruit trees or back into the garden. Hooked up short hoses permanently so we wouldn't have to crawl under to hook up all the time. I may put shelves on the right side later but ran out of leftover at this time. The top is around 8 feet by a little under 3 feet.

Update - Since these pictures were taken, I now have a big carport on the side opposite the garden with a big pole and winch assembly to life big game etc.

Can't beat that for a cleaning station, and it's better when built from drops.

Looks good, very practical and useful no doubt. I hope toy will enjoy using this excellent build.for many years.

That's a great cleaning station Mel. I have a much smaller one for fish cleaning. Do you treat it with any oil?
That is a handy all purpose work station!! Nice work on it...............Cheers, Jim

Eric - Thank you, If I don't use my leftover stuff, they just get in the way or go bad somehow.
oldrivers - Thank you for the comment, greatly appreciated.
Corelz125 - Thank you.
doubleDD - Thank you. I just soak it a couple times a year with wood preservative, seems to be working pretty well.
JimJakosh - Thank you, it does get used for a lot more than originally intended.
