ProTip: For benches like that, you can usually save a couple bucks by using a pair of 2x4's for the legs instead of going with the 4x4s. Plus, then you can interleave the horizontal supports with the vertical supports by using one long 2x4 and several short 2x4s on the vertical. Just as strong, and your shelves are now 3" deeper.

But all in all, that's one hell of a heavy-duty setup. I can't beleive the saw-monkey at HD cut all that for you!
