    I have the air compressor and shop vac hooked up to switches under the old reliable workbench from the old house. Got a twenty foot long shop vac hose and ran compressed air from under the bench to the front of the garage. The red Craftsman box was my Grandpa's. Here is a little better pic of...

    garage transformation, organization and cleanup

    Wow a lot has changed! Moved to a new house and implemented the work bench and tools on the wall at the new location. At night we pull both the cars in so I use the far long wall as workspace. For lighting I have four T8 fixtures with two four foot LED bulbs each plus five regular lights...

    The Garage Gallery *****!

    I agree! An actual gallery that you can scroll through members pictures based on the user and type of project like they have on some woodworking sites would be ideal. Users could comment below and discuss how awesome the garage or project is! :D

    Thanks everyone for your suggestions I greatly appreciate it. Its actually 14.5' between the house and fence. Roof overhang doesn't come into any of that space. But between the corner of the patio and the fence it is 10 feet. I can always move that corner of the patio though. I'll check...

    26x26 basic garage build

    I took a pic from my patio. Here I have it marked out in the yard with a couple sticks in 26x26. I could actually go ten feet deeper (26x36) but I would have to do a "real" slab as only up to 721 square feet can have a monolithic slab. I would have to see how much extra it would cost.

    Water Softeners

    I read somewhere that softened water is bad to drink because it doesn't have any minerals for your body like natural water does? I just filter the city water with my fridge filter. We don't have any calcium scale problems.
