For a while now, I have been meaning to build myself a single hockey locker/cabinet unit like you see in most pro dressing rooms. I started it a couple weeks ago and tonight I finally finished it. Made it out of 3/4" Maple, mostly fastened with biscuits. Bench seat which doubles as storage, and wire shelving for improved drying (compared to solid shelves). All that is left is to give it a final sanding and then stain and clear it. Also still need to add a couple hooks here and there. These crappy cell phone pics don't do it justice, sorry.

How much does a project like this cost? Been dying to make one myself.

It was quite a bit. It was no less than $350ish for just the material alone, up until now.

I'd buy this. I only have a balcony without a cover and a storage unit without ventilation. My roommate is already over me leaving my my gear to dry in the kitchen for days on end. A tent to cover the rain and that would suit my balcony perfect.

No pics, but in 2012, the new gear gods have been kind between presents from the GF and purchases on my own. I just new need elbows before I have all new gear since starting ice after a 7 year hiatus from roller. .

2012 grabs:

X60 girlde

X40 shins

X60 shaft

Dynasty blade (in route)

Reebok 7k helmet to pair with my 12 yo cage

Farewell shoulders (in route)

Got some new shins...they are new as a matter of fact:

They are a mismatched pair, but I wear a knee brace on my left knee so it works out good. There really isn't much a difference either way.

Added extra padding to my 6K padded shirt. Perfect for my men's league teams and open hockey.

Put some Lightspeeds on the 11K's last week!

With how much white is on those skates, I actually think the black holders look pretty sharp.

It's a very snug fit (which I like). The straps on the forearm cross over one way on the top and one way on the bottom. The bicep part is a free floating piece (similar to my 8K Pros which I am switching from).
