| I figured that I didn't want to pay a lot for shelves with doors. I went to target and bought two prefab pantry/shelf sets:

These cost $50, but I don't think I paid that much for mine. To me these were much more tasteful than the Ugh-Me-Tough styling of the Craftsman Professional (but I also like those) and the price is 1/6 or less for essentially the same shelf space. You can buy 4 of them and still come out ahead. I get grease and dirt on mine all the time, but it wipes right off.
For the workbench I went all out and got a free-standing kitchen counter:

Very sturdy, with huge generous space on top compared to the usual workbench. Nice solid drawers. I bought extra stainless-steel-fronted drawers that fit underneath (they roll on casters directly on the floor). Just some ideas, perhaps more than you wanted. Those pictures above are live links by the way, so you can click 'em to see my sources.
