For infrequent use I would go for a 3/8" plug in drill. If you have cordless, you would need to leave a battery pack in the charger all the time. I have several of both and only get the plug in drill(s) out if I am going to do a lot of drilling. But I have multiple battery packs and two...

I don't remember seeing deep soffit cabinets creating a tray ceiling before. An excellent design! So much storage up out of the way and with sliding doors to hide the clutter is genius. I am really glad you posted the pictures of your old garage to show what you are doing with the new one. You...

I guess you are correct there! I can just picture an old container sitting next to many of the beautiful garages we see pictures of. It would probably look like the Beverly Hillbillies. When we were selling our last house several interested buyers asked if the container was to stay. So the...

Just to bump this thread back to the top for a few minutes... :beer: I posted this morning about adding more storage and rather than repeat it all here, I will just give you a link to the post: Need more storage?

My 24'x24' Motorcycle Garage/Shop in Alaska Storage I put my bikes in storage for the winter, the ones I am not working on this season that is, and I took a few pictures. We all need/want/wish for more storage at times and it is not easy or cheap to add more. If you can get permits and all to...

Excellent! Call corporate, what a great idea.

This was my first garage, a one car garage that would always have a car in it at night so it had to be set up so that I could work in it after work, then put everything away so that I could bring the car in before going to bed. I wanted maximum floor space so I built what I call inverted...

Bike work table Here is the link to the thread on building the bike work tables: Bike Build Table for cheap! One sheet of plywood and seven 2x3's (each table) gives you this Simple, cheap, light, and strong, what's not to like?

Handy tools A few things I find very handy Floor pads/mats from Lowe's They are about 4' square and they come four in a pack. They hook together easily so you can make a lot of shapes/sizes. At under .75c per square foot they are excellent. Mechanic stool to roll around and holds...

Thanks Joe! Yes, I am on advrider too, which is how I got here

My Motorcycle Garage My place... A messy work in progress :beer:

Bike work I spend most of my "free" time in the winter working on various bike projects. One shop tool that I recommend to everyone is folding tables. Since most horizontal surfaces quickly get buried under "stuff" it is quite handy to have a folding table (or 3 :thumbup:) to set up to put...

Paint! With the red paint for the work bench out I painted the face frames of the overhead cabinets... The new work bench comes in handy when the bead of the tire is fused to the rim... :mad:

Excellent! You have done a lot of very good work and now you get to enjoy the warm and dry interior.
