        man, I have now come back to those pics 5 times in the last 10 minutes to look at that garage again and again.
        a bit of drywall, hard lined compressor, and a lift, and I would live in that thing!!!!
        how big is that thing?
        The walls are actually plywood. I did all the interior finishing. We just got an ingersoll compressor (Pretty Big). A lift is somewhere in the future haha. Still needs heat too. BUT it does have a full size refrigerator stocked with Yeungling Lager at all times.

            Few pics of the shop I used to have access too Buddy of mine worked there and we were both good friends with the owner he used to let us use the place after hours as much as we wanted was awesome! "If you can't find the right tool in this garage you don't need to be working on a car" LOL. Its just shitty I can't go there anymore Garage was closed down after the owner passed away last year sad stuff :(.

            With a Customers car on the lift



            My own Garage for now will be moving to a newer bigger house soon!


            SUPER TINY! I know thats why I'm moving!

            Any given weekend at my house lol

            Most of the work goes on in the driveway.

                Before anyone calls Hoarders, it's my dad's shit. This can be considered a "before" pic. We just got the lift up, and are in the process of cleaning/throwing shit away.




                After pics to come, Stonersam has a few....

                    Wow, forgot about this thread. Just got some new (used) cabinets and workbench. Don't do construction anymore, but my dad still does and hooked me up this stuff when he was tearing out a kitchen.

                              I like the lappy station! I used to have mine near the lift, but put up more slat-board and had to move the shelf, now it sits on a workbench that turned desk :(
