My Home shop.

[Ram48]

I just turned 65 and here is what 50+ years of being a motor-head and having a dream shop in mind turned out.
I am fortunate to have realized my dream and more.
It is a three car attached garage, I had to design the house in order to get 13 ft ceilings in my shop for the lift, the car on the lift is a Dodge Neon SRT-4 that my son and I play with. It is no longer streetable and is a purpose built drag car, With the original 2.4 liter 4 cyl block, front wheel drive and lots of upgrades it runs the 1/4 mile in 10,2 seconds at 143 mph. 95 % of the build was done at home by my son and I.
I hope you enjoy the pictures

Nice shop! I like the welding cart you got setup. Also like the little reloading station you have. Almost seems out of place in there, but I know my shop is multipurposed as well.

Nasty My CNC mill
It is a Novakon from Ont. I just got it set up and now I need to learn cad, cam and Mach3 to be able to get the most from it.

The reloading station does look a bit out of place but with heat and A?C in the shop it was the best location for it. The press is set up as a quick disconnect and can be easily stored away if I need additional bench space. I built the cart to hold my mig, tig plasma and the tig cooler I built from an old soda machine pump, go-kart fuel tank and a small trans cooler.
I also designed and built the welding table,With the wood on it, with removable slats and a drop in plasma cutting grid and catch basin.

Funny you called it a Lab. That is exactly what my sons friends call it. "The Lab"

Nice to have such a big attached workshop. I turn 65 at the end of the year so I will be the same boat.
