Hey guys, My name is Sonny. I'm new here from Chattanooga, Tn. In August of 2014 my grandfather who was also my best friend passed away and left me his house and garage. My granfather and I built many motorcycles and engines out in his garage and I am very happy to have the opportunity to return the garage to its previous glory.

Little background on me: 23 Years old, motorcycle enthusiast (vintage preference), draftsman for TVA.

Garage specifications:
1200 square foot, 30X40
12 or 14 foot ceilings
seperate from house

Tools:
Millermatic welder
Parts washer
Band saw
Benchtop belt sander
Bench grinder
2 drill presses
2 motorcycle lifts
Shelving all the way around
Materials loft
Kerosene jet heaters
60 gallon air compressor

I'm currently trying to clean out some trash, vaccum, install more lighting
move my tools and tool boxes in, and get it ready to start working out of.

He did, I lived a mile down the road from him my entire life so I saw him at minimum 4 times a week and we spoke on the phone pretty much every day. I'll try and get some pictures together this weekend and post them up.

Hi, Sonny. Welcome from Atlanta. That sounds like a nice garage you got there. Looking forward to seeing some pics of your garage and bikes. :thumbup:

I'm assuming TVA is for Tennessee Valley Authority. Sounds like you have a good job there.
