New guy in Az

[LK44E]

Hello, found this place searching for the perfect garage on Google. Been lurking since. I am from Missouri but I like Az better then Cali, and the wife is from Cali. I will say I like Jack's garage. Showed it to the wife and she said if I kept my garage that clean she would buy me tools. Good thing she got me a shop vac for Christmas. And I saw the thread on The "Bunker" hats off to utah997. I am in an apartment, so what garage I have is mostly for storage of the tools and "in the way" stuff.

[svtrichie]

what do you use your garage for? You have any toys?

 

[LK44E]

I mostly use it for storage. I do the oil changes just inside the door to get out of the sun. Done some welding but with my 110 welder, my 220 is at my buddy's house. My tools are my toys.

 

[svtrichie]

awesome. Someday I want to learn how to weld. My garage is already set for 220.

 

[LK44E]

svtrichie said you were in Mesa, ever thought of going to MCC for welding classes?

 

[svtrichie]

eventually, with work and a 5 month old, hard to find the time now.
