| Back in the day....Nothing like working outside on a piece of carpet to get a person motivated to finish the job. Using a little red wagon as a motor hoist for my mudbuggies...
30x50 here with concrete. | |

30x50 here with concrete. Know what you mean Dr. I changed the fuel pump on my lifted 98 Chevy in the gravel driveway. In tank pumps always fail right after a fill up..... I siphoned 5 gallon (only fuel can I had) out of a 25 gallon tank then dropped it on my chest and then to the ground. I swore then that I would have a shop to work on my junk some day. It's finally coming together. | |

| It was so bad when I was young, I would have to walk 5 miles in the snow with no shoes and wade across 5 creeks just to watch someone else work on their car in the mud. NICE, NICE, NICE shops, Guys !!!  | |

| I did a 30x40. I was working on 30x50 but it took 19 sticks of dynamite to get this far. | |

| Nice buddy, A lift is high on my lists of wants for my shop haha. Need to finish my bathroom first though. Mine is a 40x40 with three 12'x12' garage doors. I kind of wish I would have built it 50x50 haha. I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter how much garage you have you will fill it.. My house has a 36x22 connected. I have a 30x30 barn. I then built a 16x26. Have a shed for the lawn mower, tiller ect cause there wasn't room in the garage for them anymore. Built the 40x40 last year. And although I still have plenty of room in there to work on what ever. I'm 100% out of wall space and find my self pulling vehicles in and out to make room for projects. I had the idea that the camper would stay in there most of the time. That's changed to the camper is hardly ever in there. I've got a wood burning stove, big screen tv, stereo, Fridge/freezer heck even a bluray player in there. Once I get my full bathroom done I'm not sure I'll even need the house haha
