Hey guys,
Over the weekend I opened a Photobucket account so I could show off my garage. It's not much, but it works for me. I can only dream of owning a lift.

I do that occasionally since my bench is on the opposite wall under the air tool rack. I need to take some newer pictures. I'll do that this weekend and post em up.

Man that garage is sweet. Are those Harbor Freight Die grinders?? If so I have one that looks identical to what you have and I like it a lot. I've used it with a cutting wheel a lot and it's worked out real good. And where did you pick up your air tool holder?

Thanks. Yep, they're HF, they work great for me.
I got the tool rack from some website, I can't remember which.

I do like my International. I've had it about a year and a half after I grew out of that little old Cman thing. I think I did get it from Ebay. I'm looking at replacing the little Cman chest now.

Do a search for RB Components. You can get the air tool rack directly from them. I bought mine through a California Car Cover Co magazine.

I got in trouble for the washer dryer thing also after a couple dents showed up so I made a 3/4" plywood top with small trim around it so it would stay on and it stretches across the wsher and dryer for instant light duty work bench. When x-wifey needed washer and dryer it came off and stored between washer and wall. In hindsight I would have done 1/2 ply as wifey said it was too heavy for her to remove, but again look what happened to her. :)

Sorry it's an old house (and old wife) so I have no pictures.

How well does the water trap work for you. Normally the trap is further away from the tank to allow the air to cool down to wring out the water. If you are in humid weather it gets even worse. Just a suggestion...:)

By the way, nice setup!

But you gotta admit the good thing about having the washer/dryer in the garage, is that you're hooked up for 220v for those welding jobs.

Nice space! Is that a single cylinder compressor? Haven't seen a single with that big of a tank. Also - wsih I had a sink in my shop, even if it had to be next to the washer!

I noticed that the sink is in one pic then disappears in the other. I'm guessing one pic is older than the other?

Sorry guys, I made those cabinets out of mdf. I'll post some pics of the Suburban soon. I recently had to re-format my PC and lost all my pictures and MP3's. When I get more pics taken, I'll put them up.

Great garage...maybe my eyes are just shot but I couldn't make out what the trophies were for. I also have that same clock my son got me for fathers day.
