It's the side with the ladder on the wall

I've got to clean it up real soon though, because I have to start the teardown of my C10.

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

30x40 shop with parts storage/loft in the back. Don't mind the grocery getter blocking the view!

Or the truck on the lift with the blown up engine beside it.

Maybe one day I'll get around to finishing out the inside and decorating it like the cool stuff some of you guys have. Well, if I can quit blowing stuff up and changing my mind, that is..

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

I moved in last December. I'm still trying to figure out how to best configure it all. Between the Lawn & Garden equipment, woodworking tools, kids stuff, etc... A 30x45 gets mighty small.

The Previous owners just used it for storage & entertainment, not work. The shed could use a 16 foot door on the side, instead of the single 9 foot at the end. I've added 10 Fluorescent fixtures, since it had none. The pool table room is cool, but does take up alot of space. One bonus is that they opened up the ceiling for a basketball hoop, so a hoist would have no trouble fitting in there.

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

I'm jealous Whitedog, I currently have it about like Chumly, a packed garage and you have to move something out to be able to work in it.
I went from a small farm to a condo with a decent size garage it fit two cars and I had workshop space without moving something out,now I'm in a typical suburban 3 bedroom 3 baths with a 2 car garage that's packed. Next house will be back in the country with some elbow room....lol

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

I moved from a suburban home with a packed garage. Like I said before, I'm still trying to figure out the best use of space. Most garages/sheds seem big until you tear something apart. Not to mention, you don't know how much stuff you got until you move.
