    pc/computer in the garage

    Have had a pc in my shop for over 12 years... Don't expect any of them to live forever but they will do fine. The power supplies are the first to go. You can blow it out every once and a while. I have a piece of filter screen on the intake of the tower that slows down the big pieces. Mine is...

    work benches... from scratch

I have used them that way for years but a few years back I was given this Commercial Fridge/Freezer. It is the style with...

    my shop threw up

    It's a good thing. It's your shops way of purging the things that don't belong. If your garage were pristine all the time it would mean you've got too much idle time on your hands! I try to clean as I go most of the time. I freak out some of my buddies when the come over to help and part way...

    does anyone have a 24x40 ?

    I have a 24' x 42' polebarn. I have a 16' x42' Carport along side of it that will soon be enclosed though. You can never have enough space.

    The Rat's New Garage

    It never fails. Someone always has a story about a Nova. And they are usually good stories with good memories!! The place sure looks good Stan! Looks as if you'll be able to get in there before the weather starts to get ugly. :thumbup:

    DANG ME! I ran out at lunch to our local Target and they don't even have signs in the Automotive dept anymore. I'll have to check the Target by my home. I hope someone can find an online link to it?:headscrat

    JR2's Shop Upgrade....

    Thanks!! It's not a showroom but I like it. It has areas that I can do most things I need to do, have my nifty junk in there and still get things done. I even host my car club meetings poker nights and movie nights often in there. My buddies dig it! It's my home away from home (about 120'...

    JR2's Shop Upgrade....

    It's a Sourth Bend 9"x4' lathe. Not sure on the year but it's pretty old. My Dad has had it for a long time just sitting around his shop not in use. I asked him what he was gonna do with it and the next weekend he showed up with it in his van and told me to put it to use. It came with a ton of...
