How much extra is it to fix the slab? If it were me, I'd hold off until the budget allows. It sounds like you're not going to be happy with the scissor lift in the long run.

Just a shelf for me.

I have one and it's not too bad. I don't mind the depth too much (top is 14.5" and the bottom is 16.5") but I wish it had some full-length drawers.

I'm using the Craftsman socket rails for my regular sockets, but I'm not too happy with the setup as-is. I think I'm going to finish out the set and do a mass reorganization after that. One thing I do is I don't seperate the standard and metric; much easier to just grab one rail and than...

I like it, but I have two suggestions: I'd add a door so you can get to the garage from upstairs without going outside. To a lesser degree, I'd add a door between the bedroom and the bathroom.

I think the $20k price increase negates the efficiency argument. Besides, look at it this way: At 2000 sq ft, a two-story house will give you a 1000 sq ft shop in the basement. Build a single-story house and it doubles.

I'm kicking myself for not knowing about this when I lived in Utah.

I'm with kbs2244; my parents park their RV at a secured lot for a few bucks a month--probably cheaper in the long run. Either that or you can try to bump the front out sort of like this: Do it right, you could add a lot of curb appeal to the house.

You mean there's a difference?

The wiper linkage on my '85 BMW needs to be replaced. Unfortunately, there is exactly one way to remove it and there's about a millimeter of clearance to do it. That project started in June and I'm still working on it. Once that's done, it's time to start about 500 other things on the list...

That building's just crying for a roof deck above the addition. I can't wait to see more.

Close off the top of the kennel and you have some more storage space.

I'd center it on the wall and find a plant or something for the hearth to add balance.

Purpony's picture made me think of something helpful that a person could overlook--build enough room on the sides to open the pop-outs.

I want your garage.
