Re: Show us your shop.
Well, since you asked...yesterday I became the official renter of my new "play ground"...
For the next couple months I'll be using the space to liquidate (CL Yard sale, of sorts) all the stuff I've accumulated from my folks, my departed husband and his folks plus all the crap I just had to save for ... sometime. Fear not...my collected truck goodies are staying.    Here's pics from yesterday and today... Stuff from storage getting layed out on tables.. Best of all; got in the TV (Thanks to Livrat & Bro for the help unloading) and Halloween is over...evil elves get stored. Last edited by ETsC10; 11-03-2009 at 02:42 AM. Reason: added more pics |

Re: Show us your shop.
Hey JBGroby, I dig the "plaid" valve covers on your V6!
Here is my "home". 1st pic is the office area where I get to visit with y'all. 2nd pic is out in the driveway looking north at the shop. The rest are angles in the main bay. Later ---DAC

Re: Show us your shop.
no good pictures of my shop,but i did have an idea when i was cutting my bed down.Im gonna try to find a junk bed with a good tail section,cut it down like the pic. below,and try to hang it from the wall.I think it would be cool to have a functioning tail gate,and use it like a bench seat(pad and cover the inside of the tailgate,and the wall,so when you let the tailgate down,it looks like the bench seat in the truck,if that makes sense).I also want to wire the taillights and side markers to light up from a seperate switch,and paint it to match my truck(when its done).Just not sure if,and how,i can make it work yet.

Re: Show us your shop.
 Started out a 30' diameter grain bin. I cut a 10' high 12' wide door in it. It was 24' from the slab to the top of the walls. I went up 12' and put in a floor. It has a wall hugging stairwell going up to the upstairs and room for lots of parts. You can get two trucks inside and close the door but it's a bit tight. It is better suited for one with lots of room. I added the 24' X 26' slab and awning for a little more room. It works for me.

Re: Show us your shop.
It's still not a garage so I still have to go out to the driveway to work on tehe beast, but after removing the oil heat and the tank I was able to get a decent place together to work on portable parts.

Re: Show us your shop.
I wish I had a nice fancy shop to show you guys. But unfortunately that is only but a dream. Infact I'd give almost anything for just a simple two car garage. Hell, I could be happy with just a single car garage. Anyway, here is where I work on all my projects.
