I started a similar thread in another section, figured it's getting more pic heavy so maybe it belongs here in the gallery.
Pic as soon as I became the tenant, I moved the desk in so it was pretty much just a shed.

I quickly decided it needed paint.

And some stripes.

Then I decided that desk was grossly large for a shed, so I scored another desk, painted it gray, and had a big Ford decal made to put under the glass. Oh, and the plywood floor just wasn't cutting it, so Racedeck was in order!!!


Power is still heading my way, at a slow pace. As always, progress pics to come soon.

Very nice. What's the purpose of the desk? Seems like it's hogging allot of room that could be used for tools.

Sorry I didn't specify the usage, I covered it in the other thread.

Back story: The shed is at work, originally built as a waiting room for truckers while they were being unloaded. Never got used for its intended purpose as it was just a shed with a wood bench, much less plush than their cab which has heat/AC, stereo, etc. So it just sat. I moved into the unloader position and took it over as a break room since it's right where the trucks pull in, and I unload much quicker than the previous guy.
Area 51 is the name because it's all being done under the radar. Everyone knows about it but no official work order was established for the improvement, "nothing to see here" type of deal. The only bosses aware of what's up is my immediate supervisor. It has all been basically free from materials that were left over from other jobs to keep cost at $0, except for the floor of course. Electricians are hooking me up to power slowly in between their other jobs. All their material are extra/left over parts as well.

I think that about covers it.
