    New Life to a 1925 Fulton Dropfo Vise

    I need your ideas! 22x22x8 2-Car Garage Open Layout

    I also forgot to say that the previous owner did some sort of shop work in here or had a grow house because there are 28 regular 110v outlets with a 220v line ran to the corner for the air compressor as the garage is on its own breaker panel. So I know I am all setup up on my electrical needs...

    From the rear bumper to the wall I have about 2ft of room. But from what I have been thinking I don't think anything will go there maybe only some shallow shelving with some upper cabinets. I say this becasue I may be doing a big double door to the back yard to replace that single door that's...
