Mahindra 2655, picked it up a few weeks ago. Has been worth every penny so far. Got it with the bucket and backhoe plus a grader blade and pallet forks. I'll post some pictures of the projects I've been able to knock out with it already. As for the power cords for the lights. I'm leaving them...

Enough with the past. Present day

Spent almost the next 2 years enjoying the property and chipping away at projects around the house and slowly adding to the garage. View from the back deck of the house Added a planer on wheels and radial arm saw we dug out of my dad's basement. Floor drill press that my 94 year old...

Put together a shelf for the back wall on the vehicle storage side of the garage. Used the left over clean 2x6s from the stalls that were removed earlier. Shelf is mounted off the wall with the 3 vertical 2x6s providing the support in the front. Then put together this cart to hold everyday...

With the insulation up and a few weeks of mulling over the layout it started to come together. The plan was to use the space as an all purpose area. Vehicle storage in part, lawn/equipment storage and service area, and then a shop area for woodworking and general projects. My overall goal when...

Given the upcoming winter as it was october, I wanted to start getting stuff put away before the winter weather arrived. Walls were insulated and sheetrocked asap then it was time to start finding a home for everything. With the openness of the floor I installed LED shop lights at the time...

Moved in mid October of 2016 and hit the ground running. The previous owner had used half of the garage to house animals. There were 3 12'x12' stalls and a 12'x12' storage room. Removed the stalls in large sections and was able to find a buyer on Craigslist. Took the money and put it on...

Been hiding in the weeds as a guest. Giving this a shot, so lets see what happens. 1st garage was in 2014 when the girlfriend and I decided to try living together. Figured a cheap condo would be easier to figure out if things didn't go well. The garage space was small and project abilities were...
