    Below 265 SQ/FT Seattle Townhouse Small Garage - 15'9" D x 9'11" W

    Great renovation of the garage. I'm sure you're enjoying it. Sweet car. I've considered an electric or hybrid for my next vehicle and that Audi looks really good. I noticed the MCM aesthetics inside the home. Best design era ever imo.

    Any Feedback On "Steel Vision" Tools?
