Item description
A photograph of a table in a home workshop. The table is covered in a pile of miscellaneous items and tools, many of which are separated into zipped plastic bags, concealing the contents from viewers. At the back of the table is a metal gray tool cabinet with 18 small drawers. To the right of it is a smaller wooden tool cabinet with small plastic drawers that contain nails of various shapes and sizes. Above it, attached to the white wall, is a one-compartment white cabinet.
