I have 2 55 gallon drums on two corners of our house. They fill up in NO time at all. I actually did some figuring using our water bill the other day. At $0.006 cents a gallon, I save ~$0.66 filling them......... Not going to change my water bill really, However the garden and the other...

Just found this - you can use nextag or amazon.com to find them much cheaper: http://www.racorinc.com/Products.aspx?id=150

I'm in the same boat and just found this online: http://www.comfortchannel.com/prod.itml/icOid/7484, I'm thinking of making something similiar - my handles DO fold up on my pushmower. I also have a deck - about 3' off the ground so I've also toyed with the idea of putting a "roof" on the...

I've wondered that myself.

Thats a great idea - if the tank is elevated above the spout, you don't even need a pump and can wash your hands and rinse stuff off. Gray water can be captured or let on the ground (no dumping oil etc in there)

Like a parts washer.

mowing shoes (the last round of sneakers), some flip flops, and a couple of other pairs are just plain in a very unorganized pile outside our garage door. As a matter of fact - my whole garage is a very unorganized pile.:headscrat

ditto - I do mine in the our machine on the hot settings, then run an empty except for soap load to clean out the machine - My wife's only complaint is the smell that occurs from drying them in a hot dryer!!! The rags come clean - but still smell like oil while drying.

We used to have a 212 model with a blade that we used to scrape our 1/4 mile long driveway of snow (and spread new gravel). Been 15 years since I've seen one that even looked like it!!!

Gear lube smell is bad - EXCEPT when it is out in the garage. It reminds me of the old corner gas/service station smell. Kinda like it - now I would NOT like that smell in the house. I have a 76 Corvette and I get a real bad gasoline fume smell after driving when the tank is less than half...

NICE drawing. - I've got lots of "close" to finished projects laying around too.:beer:

I have a big rubbermaid tub - that I keep in the basement with all the owners manuals to my equipment and appliances - for shop manuals, they are currently without a home - as I have not fully moved in to our new house's garage - but they'll just be put on a shelf on my workbench/cabinet.

He he - just sent a PM on the specifics of the ceiling-stored table. I like the up and out of the way aspects of it.

I for one - really like the VCT look. Great Job!!

Wow - a sunken section would be cool - You could get REALLy creative and have removable ramps so you could drive your car on the ramps and get down in the sunken part to do your oil changes like a grease pit. But that is just crazy thinking/brainstorming. On a different note - I have seen 3...

5 gallon bucket? Same Here - I also use a small wooden fold up stool that I built back in 4-H woodworking class using craft-grade 3/4" (1xmaterial) pine.

That is a great looking shop - Im envious.:beer:

I did actually see your post a while back - And it is a good solution - I would like however to free up floor space - Maybe I'll dream up my own little solution and implement it, then post the results. Wonder what I should use on the cieling in the joists? eyelets or more like Ubolts, hanging...

My neighborhood HOA won't allow outbuildings - so I've been thinking of making something like those Bicycle pully systems to store my push mower up and out of the way. I figure I'd fold down/colapse the handlebar and then rig a way to attach hooks or something do the deck, through eyelets/loops...
