I found this thread by just "goggling" for plans to extend my work space/bench in my garage/shop. I was going to log into www.garagejournal.com to see what was posted here anyway. ......anyway, a great thread and bench you've accomplished. The design is just what I want, so I can actually sit...

Welcome from Langley, BC Canada............the bench/shop looks good.

I've read through both your orig. thread and now your build thread. I was on the same pg. as a lot of guys were, in thinking you might have made a mistake selling and moving in to her house. Then I thought, you must have your "profit" or equity you got out of your house that you could always...

Nice ... good for you

The weather was crappy that's for sure. It doesn't usually snow this time of year. I left the auction before they got to all the old 78's. They were in the back part of the shop when I left. I was chilled to the bone. Glad you had a good time just the same.

Bump

Well did anyone go to the auction??? I did. Not as many people there as I thought there were going to be. It was a crappy day weather wise. It was "pouring cat's and dogs" and then the rain turned to snow. The shop, although it was a nice size to have and work in, it was set up with tables with...

Good point Mr. X I'm sure depending on how much advertising has been done on this upcoming auction, that there will be collector's/people down just to get a specific "Coke" or Lionel train piece. I also wonder how the things will be auctioned off. It would take them a month of Sunday's to go...

All I have to say is WOW !!! What a collection. It sounds/looks as though there might be a few "Garage Journal" members/people there on the weekend. I think for nothing else I'd like to be in the place and actually seeing the items. So I think I'll be heading over the boarder to have a look see...

All great ideas and suggestions. Thanks!! I'll be subscribing to this thread so I can refer to it when I get started outfitting my garage. {retirement is just around the corner I hope}

WOW !! Glad it wasn't me. As others have said, ...I thought I said something wrong but couldn't figure out what! Oh well it's all good now.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with this. http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/DAYTON-Commercial-Electric-Wall-Heater-2YV14 I have a 36' X 28'. It will be insulated. I can get one new in the box for $400.

Looks nice,.... Love the Econoline !!!

I don't mean to rain on your parade in the slightest Kari,... but this might help with your choices of what to build/buy for "a building". I almost went into production making beef jerky, sausage etc from my home a while back but found "food safe" restrictions were a big stumbling block. It had...
