I've been lurking and fascinated for a while at all the garages on this site. Just thought it was time to wade in to encourage some of the younger guys to stick it out and work on your stuff in the best place you've got for now. There have been some amazing projects turned out of small underequipped shops and even after all these years i'm still working out of one. One day we may all have a great shop to work in. I'm just glad to have a roof to work under. Here's a pic of shop and projects. Just thought the dusk picture was cool.

Cool space and projects. I know what you mean, for many years I had no shed at all, just a makeshift tarpaulin carport. Then when I got a metal shed/garage it was the height of luxury! Now I'm moving again, and with the chance to start fresh am finally looking forward to making a nice place to work in.

It's not what you have, but how you use it. I started out with an 8x8 shed. I think I'd have a ton of fun hanging out in your garage, turning a wrench, burning metal or making chips. So give us more pics and tells us what's next! Fyi, I like your toys, I wouldn't mind some details on them as well.

Welcome to the GJ from downunder.

Cool shop and interesting projects by the looks of things, thanks for posting.:thumbup:

:spit: And all this time, we thought you guys were from "Downunder" :lol:

I've never hear that before coming from an Australian.

Now I've got to go find my globe :lol:

Follow up on the projects in the picture. 1935 International Pickup with 455 Buick. It was built in the shop on a dirt floor. Bike is a 70's style long bike in progress. Honda 450 with a girder front end. Car in the next bay of the shed is next, 55 Chevy 2 door sedan. It is running with a 331 small block, Muncie 4 speed and a Dana 60 rear. Getting ready to disassemble bike and paint it. I just need some concrete and an air conditioner!
