Newbie from Colorado....

Been browsing the site for a while and joined a week or so ago. Thought it was time to introduce myself. I'm 22 and just bought my first house 6 months ago. Its about 2200sqf. The garage I believe is 576 sqf. and so far houses a 10ft. run of base cabinets and I put a new top on it. Recently started running electrical through the finished walls and adding some lighting. Future plans include some kind of flooring, shelving all the way around 8ft. up the wall (garage has 10ft. ceiling). Need to add a couple air reels and and a retractible shop light reel. Not sure what else just yet. Looking for a new project/toy as well since I recently wrecked my sand rail/dune buggy. Ideas?

Welcome Ken. Congrats on the new, big house. Post some pics of your garage.

As far as project ideas......Concentrate on the house and garage for awhile. There are homeowner expenses that will sneek up on you that you never dreamed of. Get a handle on the home and work area first. Then find a project.

Best of luck, and again, welcome!

Hi, Ken. Welcome. Congrats on the house.
Go ahead and post a location more specific than "Colorado" We won't hunt you down, and it's helpful for everybody.

Its alright if someone wants to hunt me down. Maybe stop off and have a few cold ones lol. Btw I'm in Pueblo Colorado.

Where do you run a sand rail/dune buggy around Pueblo?

Well I usually take it up to the mountains and run it along side the side x sides. Very capable. Also run it out in canon city in the dunes on the west end of town. I wrecked it out at the motocross/ drag strip/ hills in Pueblo tho. Came down a hill doing some mudding and my front wheels slid down into a huge rut and dug about a foot into the mud sending the back end over on me. Messed up some suspension parts pretty good.
