452 ft² Garage

[dypen]

My Garage is 23' X 20' total floor space 452 ft² and the Outbuilding 16' X 20' 323 ft²

Start the New Year with a thread in "Garage Gallery" … I have surfed around on the forum for long time to get inspiration to my outhouse and garage. Must say I am impressed by both the forum and members creativity here!

Posting this thread to show progress and how my garage will finally be inside, hoping of course for some help for a well working hobby garage but still have the possibility to park two cars there. Sorry my English, I do my best

Overview Picture of the property. Main house, outbuilding, garage and trash house (bottom right corner).

We bought the property for over 16 years ago and has since then carried out various improvements. Some of it is a little changing on the garage with a car-wash space behind the garage and a new outhouse (store-house) with a baking room for my wife.

What I hope to get as I wrote earlier in this thread is a well working hobby garage with space for tools and equipment but still have the possibility to park our two cars there at night and especially in winter.

For heating, I have installed air to air heat pump… I have two small compressors of 2.5 kW each connected together and hopefully can give air to most of the air tools I need. The plan is to have these two in the outbuilding with piped into the garage...

Purchased from IKEA 4 wall cabinets to be mounting before they can be hung on the wall ... 2 pieces 60x80 and 2 pieces 40x80.

I will be back with more photos

[2fat2fly]

Very nice work so far.

 

[Boosted1]

Very nice.
Your garage looks well thought out and well built.
I like that Ikea over bench cabinet you found. I've been looking for something to store aerosol cans, etc.

 

[dypen]

Thanks, the job is easier with good words Cabinets on place, only the doors to be installed ...

 

[dypen]

Doors finished! The doors were shiny...

I have a Billy shelf 202x80 that must be cut to 202x60 to fit between the garage door and the wall on the right side.

I need several cabinets or shelves, workbench, table for drill press with more...

I have no specific plan for how to do all this

Mounted IKEA cabinets tonight with furniture legs from Biltema, the next will be to screw up fastening rail on the wall for cabinet, install doors and worktop in 40mm stave glued oak from Bauhaus. I have only three base cabinet so that I have an open space under worktop ...

The two plank are to get vise right in relation to the use and workbench.

Mounted with 12 mm bolt and large washer.

Thank you for your kind comments to all since I started the thread! Here is my project for "Nut & Bolt Storage" thread.

 

[dubjager]

A small step forward ...

I love this look- shame I can't find it at IKEA here in the states! Also have some old "billy" shelves that I have re purposed for the garage and would love to have this look!

 

[JRodsGarage]

Nice build! I am in love with the nut & bolt organizer... Im going to have to start searching the local antique stores to find something similar

Looking through IKEAs website, I think I found it. Or at least something very similar!

I believe this is the base with 2 doors.

Here are the legs.

"Under cabinet light in progress". Trying to figure out what kind of light I should have, no halo but maybe LED ... LED lights in this video: LED under cabinet lighting overview & installation tips

Garage Ventilation, today I have none. Heating with heat pump, but with two cars in the garage, I'm depending on to regulate the air and especially moisture is problematic governed by dehumidifier Woods DS28F with 10 liter water tank. Working on getting valves in the garage, air into the front and out the back. May need to have a fan on the back for getting the air to circulate. Unsure of how this affects the heat pump? See it being used fans in this thread: Garage Ventilation

Bought two IKEA BEKVÄM trolleys which I considered to have drill press and a small band saw on. A slightly larger trolley had perhaps been better for both inclusive bench grinder?

 

[Mpower5266]

I will be following this, great work.

 

[dypen]

We had a little trouble with the electrical, error found and repaired. Poor contact and corrosion in the electrical intake switch. New switch mounted.

Old.

New.

Very nice weather this Sunday, spent some time in the garage. Dedicated charging place

I think I have found room for my "Nut & Bolt Storage"

 

[dypen]

Bought a Nico drill press with vise for 48 USD The quality of this is well nothing to brag about, I get to consider another if the need is there. Anyway nice to have

 

[drivesitfar]

Dypen: did you find the electrical problem and fix it yourself or is that something you hired out and had a professional electrical person do?

your cabinets and bench are looking great. nice work so far!!

i like the his and her detached shops!!

 

[dypen]

Thanks! When the error occurred, we had a visit from the power supplier who believed the fault lay in the cable to fuse cabinets inside the house and it was not their responsibility.

Without electricity I had to do something. Later I found the error by cable to the input switch had melted insulation on several cm. Contacted a friend who operates electrical installation company that repaired temporarily and replaced part a few days later. Approved electrician and papers are in order

 

[dypen]

The electrician has been here today, LED lights

[vettex2]

Nice!

 

[drivesitfar]

DYPEN: just curious since Lefsa is one of our holiday treats what do you put in yours? i'm 100% Norwegian and maybe 4 or 5 generations from Norway (no relatives married as far as i know, but i do have a few strange moments). we like brown sugar in butter and then 10 seconds in the microwave, but the kids always liked plain white sugar.

i have never really liked flat bread, but if you make Krumkakka i'll be right over.

thanks for the pictures and i'm sure i gained a pound just looking at them.

cheers
