    Wendt Lane Garage

    Hey all, I've been lurking for a while, time to share my garage! I bought my first house a few months ago at the end of February. Here's a few pics of what I started with. It's a 28x30 garage, with a set of stairs leading to a bonus room upstairs. One third of the shop was used as cold storage...
