Tool cart made of pine shipping pallets. I plan to mount a sanding center on the flip side. No stain, polyurethane finish.
The face frame and drawer fronts are solid birch, the sides and back are 3/4" maple plywood. Top is a plastic laminate with track for standard miter gauge.  Natural  polyurethane finish. I sell these router tables complete with Porter Cable 3 HP router and lift mechanism. Price is $2995.

Shop chest. This was my first chest of drawers.  It is made of red oak plywood with solid red oak face frame and drawer fronts. The top is hardboard banded with oak strips. Each drawer uses blum 18" drawer slides. Natural polyurethane finish.
My workbench. Lot's to write about here. but I won't. It's got a twin Veritas screw on the left end. T track lets me easily mount up any table top  tool. It doubles as an outfeed table for the Delta Unisaw. Made from MDO, solid maple banding, pine legs, Masonite top, and a waxed finish.  I wax this after every project and so far, not a drop of glue has stuck to it!
The shop cabinets are made of red oak plywood, birch plywood, with solid red oak banding.  Smaller shelves are made from pine pallets.  All wood has a clear finish of polyurethane.  The drawers are all deep drawerrs running on full extension slides. These really are handy to hold all the smaller power tools.  The two larger vertical areas near center have sliding shelves.  One holds the hollow chisel mortiser, the other a bench top bandsaw.
Drill press cart. Made of 3/4" maple and solid birch for the face and drawer fronts. Drawers have full extension slides.  The cart rolls on double locking casters. The table was made from the sink cutout from my kitchen and banded with solid oak.  The fence design was ripped off my router table.  The drill press is a bit high but the storage underneath is very handy.  Clear polyurethane finish.
