New garage

[Vinnie]

Today at last my wish for a garage workspace of my own has come true. No more renting. I bought a unit that is just over 3 meters wide (not that much but wait for it....), 10 meters deep and 8 meters tall (that's 3 floors).

I'm starting to move stuff in tomorrow. The place is brand new, I'm the first owner and the unit is mine to customize.

Here's a pic to get an idea:

I'm going to make the cupboard a bit thinner to make driving in and out easier. Lots to do... Eventually I also want to have 2 floors in it. Imagine the floor space! I know that in most other countries space is no issue but overhere space is rare and expensive.

I'm thrilled to have my own space now

Nice! Very happy for you!

"Eventually I also want to have 2 floors in it".

wait, wait...

are you saying specific 71, 72 and 73 floors?

That's great! It will be nice to have room. And since you own the space you get the benefit of it appreciating in value.

Now you need a lift in the far end.

 

[OLE PONY]

Very nice!

First thing you should buy is a lift as you got enough height. Maybe only use half the length for a second floor. You can't imagine how much owning a lift will change it all.

Outstanding find! Well Done.

Thanks everybody

That's the plan. I want the lift in the middle to make a workbench and keep room for a mill and lathe in the back.

Will e: That's what I was thinking as well: no more money thrown away by renting

Haha, I could store 3 big americans in there but one would be a 73 corvette and the other probably a Trans am

Ah dreams...

Now you can get serious on your cars. Great find.

 

[Vinnie]

I might get very serious coz more and more often I find myself thinking about doing a concourse restoration. I know I won't be driving it for a long time then but if I don't take the car apart completely I'm always going to have the feeling I missed a spot somewhere and I might have to do it all again. I usually want to do everything right in one go...

Anyway, as of today I should also have electricity in the unit. What should I hook up first? Radio? Coffee maker or fridge? Choices!

Nice to know... where to go...  :whistling:
