That is a lot of concrete and a lot of Porsche garage! I'm hoping to build something like that one day and pack it with a collection. Keep us posted on the progress.

The only plumbing will come in through the wall for a sink. I wanted the floor to be flat for tables and machinery, so no drains. Since I work with metal, I prefer to sweep, no water clean-up. I am also on a septic system, so the tie-in would be costly for a bathroom. In the future I may put a bathroom outside the shop, but will probably have to install a small septic system for it.
My current shop is 16' x 30 ', so that will become my 993's new private home!

Nice, I have shop envy...mine is only 26' x 55'...oh well I guess I will just have to do!
It is amazing how you can fill up the space though....I was thinking of expanding it but since its built into the side of a hill (the back wall is entirely in the ground...it actually insulates the garage) it involves lots of excavation so it will have to wait.
Cheers,
Mike
