Don't feel too bad, mine's narrower, and now has two vehicles stuffed into it. You have to carfully park all the way over, put the seat all the way back, and do some minor gymnatics to get out without slamming the door into the plaster - and the whole thing closes up with a nice, crudy-looking pad lock. The space was previously being used to store random junk that was recently cleaned out, so now I've got the only fully-enclosed garage in the complex! I'm actually very grateful, since the shark used to live in a carport.

My buddy's garage: sick huh?

Schocki

Way to clean for my taste. Is he performing surgical procedures on his cars

Here is my garage big Sharky can't stand to sleep alone. The why we had to get some company.

MarkRobinson

that's the trick: he has another place for dirty work

Schocki

I thought the bedroom is for dirty work?

Oh sorry is this not the European Forum?

MarkRobinson

Wow, I'm very envious! Gorgeous Shane! Looks very "soothing"

Is the shop heated Shane? This is mine, all buttoned up, last winter. I have a Modine propane heater.....it is a godsend.

MarkRobinson

Wow, you guys have snow!

Gretch

Some of the cars spend the winter here....


Snow?? Nope, not any more, Shop looks like this now......


Once winter is over this is Gretch's home....." Green acres is the place to be......"

I had acquired a large house that had a 2.5 car garage with a second unfinished house being 40' x 70' with plans to turn the second one into a lakehouse rental property since it is waterfront.
Up to this point, house #2 ended up being my garage and workshop for now. Its heated and has its own generator. The garage area is 40' deep by 35' wide and unfinished area an additional 40'x 35'. Its a shame I use it for the cars because it has a million dollar view of the lake and mountains, so maybe I will build another garage behind it and convert that area into a house.
My Near future plans are to build a small part of the unfinished area into an office, get a lift for working on the cars, better lighting, and use the rest as workshop.
I may eventually turn part of it into a seasonal condo duplex for the lake summer season or housing for family members.

One more pic shows the glimpse of the lake and how the two houses fit together on the lake.

Thanks,

Shane, you are in luck, I have a great solution for you.

Take a 5 gal plastic pail and poke a couple of holes through the sides oposite of eachother, just below the rim. Take an empty beer can and pull the tab off of it, and poke a hole in the bottom of it. Run a wire through the can and fix it to the top of the pail through the holes you poked near the rim. Tha can now acts as a rolling drum on the taught wire. Spread peanut butter on the can. Pour about 3 inches of antifreeze in the pail. Set pail on floor of shop, against a wall, with a board from the floor to the rim of the bucket, such that the mice have to jump from the edge of the board to get to the peanut butter on the can. This works really well. I use them in my barns and pool cabana. The beauty of this setup is the anti freeze pickles the mice so there is no smell, and you never have to empty the trap for the whole season.

Try it man.....it really works.

Frank,
Those are voxx scorze wheels, 18" x 8". I think they now make them in 18 x 10" too now for the 928. I think they look nice andclosely resemble a sport 996 wheel.

Gretch, Shane, Warren..you guys have gorgeous set ups..kudos!!!

Mark, is your buddy's garage floor marble? Or is it just stained to look that way? I love the floor and was wondering for future purposes if this effect can be had from staining and sealing. Thanks bud! BTW, nice T/A on the rack (or Formula 400)
