Re: Let's See Your Garage / Workshop !!!

Here is pics of my current project,LOL, kinda hard to see but to the left there is a 30X34 garage and towards the front there is another 22X24 garage. Also am pouring a 30X15 pad next to the shop for extra parking.

Re: Let's See Your Garage / Workshop !!!

Nice shops guys. I have a car and a half that is full with mowers and toys. Im looking in to adding a few bays on the end of the house or poss buying a two car already standing two blocks away. The cheaper option will win so there is money left for the lwb 66. What are some recommendations? Is it better to be attached to house or just two blocks away?

Re: Let's See Your Garage / Workshop !!!

A couple pics from a few months ago. She's a little farther along now, pretty much just trim to do and run my airlines. Just finished building a shed so my garage now feels much more open.

Re: Let's See Your Garage / Workshop !!!

Here is about the best picture I have of my shop. I can't remember the exact size but it can fit three trucks side by side, and two longbeds front to back.... It is in a block of shops in a local storage unit, and I am the only really active tennant so I'm usually out there alone. My house is only on a 1/4 acre lot, so there isn't any room for a shop on my current property beyond the built in 2 car (barely) garage. We're talking about selling and moving in a few years, and will be buying a few acres with plenty of room for a shop. For now this works fine, but I am running out of room and have more projects I want to aquire.....

Re: Let's See Your Garage / Workshop !!!

you guys got some nice shops...
lakeroadster, love the rpu and the place you built it in.

ours is a bit different. not sure where the shop stops and the house starts.
my wife and I fixed up a 40's sinclair station that had been abandoned. it had 2 bays originally and we added on with living quarters in the back and a few out buildings for bodywork and metal fab. my girl is as project oriented as I am so this place suits us just fine.
our latest addition is elmer gantry... a hoist we scrapped from a semi truck dealership.

Re: Let's See Your Garage / Workshop !!!

thanks notch, here's a couple from inside. the part we live in is more like an efficiency apartment... small, cozy and easy to maintain.
everything was built from recycled materials. used blocks, old commercial doors and metal sash windows.
