Re: Shouse
No pics but a buddy built a wood shop that was larger than his house, complete with a full bathroom and shower. Even had a sleeper sofa in the office in case he was too tired to walk to 100 ft to the office.
But to encourage the wife to stay out, he did not install a toilet, only a wall hanging urinal! Guess he was willing to walk that 100 ft if he really needed to...

Re: Shouse
This is something I am seriously considering doing in the future. Buy a nice lot and start from scratch. Basically make it look like a house with an attached 2 door garage but have the entire main level be the shop....basically like a 5 car garage or so, and then build an upper level to live in. I think it would be a cool idea and the ultimate man's house. Not to mention, I think it could be done for a fairly reasonable price.....essentially just a really big garage, something that I would be capable of building with the assistance of friends and family in a short period of time.

I just step outside of the door. Of course I have a whole forest to urinate in. Don't have a favorite tree.

Re: Shouse
my shop has a little apartment in it. its rented to a friend at the moment. the apartment not the shop!!!!! lol the shop is big enough to fit 4 to 6 cars in no problem. the apartment has a closet, bathroom with shower, a little kitchen. pretty nifty if i do say so myself. were getting a damn good deal on the place. its a 3 bedroom 2 bath 3200sq and a pool on i think 5 acres . its got the shop with the apartment and a covered carport as big as the shop. and the house has a 2 car garage. paying $1100 a month and they offered to sell. you know its weird, i used to go to the river or another pool to swim all the time but now that we have a pool i never swim!!! lol ill take some pics of the shop and apartment and post um later.
