Hello everyone, I have been browsing the site on and off for a while now and thought it time to introduce myself. I relocated from Beckley, WV to Western PA in the past year and have finally settled on a house. My previous home had a nice carport, but no garage. The carport was better than nothing but far from the garage/shop I wanted. This time around a minimum 2 car, preferably detached garage was on my list of requirements. We are set to close on the house this week and I will soon have a 3 car ~38x28 1000+sqft sqft detached garage! :bounce:

Obviously I am excited about it and have spent several hours here on garage journal making plans for my garage- interior layout, storage cabinets, tool chests, compressor setups, flooring, you name it and I've been reading about it. There is a wealth of knowledge and information available here! I have already jumped in and purchased a few of the Gladiator 30" cabinets I found in the Hot Buy section from Sears!

And of course :needpics: so I have attached the only one I have so far!

BB: you seem to know how to post and have a good sense of humor so welcome to our group. plenty of information here that is for sure. i tend to hang in the old tools and mainly the vise section, but one day i'll have a huge detached garage of my own so i'll get to show it off with all the other garages some members own.

take care and best of luck with the move.

Thanks for the welcome!

drivesitfar: Yeah, I've spent some time on forums over the past several years and become acquainted with posting procedures. Also, I have checked out a little in the vise section already. I don't currently own a vice and rather than purchasing a poor quality new vise I am waiting to come across a vintage vice for a price I can't turn down. My father regularly visits flea markets and estate sales so I asked him to pick one up when he finds a good deal.
