Yer garage is fair coming on by the by...

 

[Scottishross]

Cheers mate

 

[bazzateer]

Only just seen this thread - great space you have there. I was going to suggest getting a trolley-crane thing on that I beam but you beat me to it!

How about building yourself a blast cabinet?

 

[Scottishross]

Like for sand blasting

 

[RSOllie]

Looking smart
One suggestion if I may, get some hooks on the wall for the ladders (unless u have already lol)
I can see tears lol

 

[Scottishross]

I have hooks (somewhere) just not fitted them yet

 

[bazzateer]

Like for sand blasting

Exactly, would make cleaning up parts so much quicker and easier.

Not updated in a while not that a have done much

Decided to build new shelves

Picked up 10 length of 3x2 inch and 8 length of 2x2 inch

Turns out a needed more ha ha

 

[Scottishross]

Spent a few hours on it the night

Back supports done and some of the shelves fixed

It's getting there plus picked up more wood

 

[John in OH]

Those new shelves should give you a lot of useful storage space!

Just wondering though, are the rear horizontal shelf supports anchored to the block wall? If not, I see two potential problems; 1) The shelf span appears rather long and the shelves may sag when loaded. You may need to add more vertical shelf supports; 2) If shelves aren't anchored to wall, and if not loaded very carefully, the entire shelf assembly they may tip and fall forward causing damage or injury.

 

[Scottishross]

If a was to put more supports in the now I wouldn't be able to fit the shelfs because there too long and the shelfs are screwed to the wall every 2ft the now anyway

I'm planning to put more supports at the front and back once I'm finished

At the moment I'm just fitting the shelves

 

[0150carmac]

looks like a good big space to work with

keep up the work i look forward to reading the up dates

 

[Rossco]

IDE a been buzzin to have a unit like that back in the UK mate. We worked out of a single car garage.

Burning wood is great. What saw you got? What kinda wood you gettin? Some white oak if ya lucky!

 

[RivennHewn]

One of my carpenters is a ****** F'n Scott.

Every time I tell him he's done a nice job on something, he gets a funny look in his eyes and yells "If it's not Scottish, it's ****!"

Sometime I tell him 'Good job' even if his work *****, just to hear him yell.

********!

 

[Scottishross]

Done a few more hours on the shelves the night it's coming together

 

[Jrsixx]

So are you a Ross, or a McLeod?

 

[Scottishross]

I'm both ha ha

 

[Jrsixx]

Well, cheers from a fellow Ross in the US.

 

[Scottishross]

First name is Ross second is .... Mc

 

[Scottishross]

Spent a few hours building a drawer

Not sure if I'm happy with it

Next thing is (if I'm happy with it ) build wee boxes for screws ,bolts and washers

 

[Scottishross]

Got my tubs sorted out just cutting them to size
(Not the best quality pics)

 

[Canadian Charlie]

Very impressive garage, I love the way it has ivald over the years

 

[Scottishross]

It's not perfect it's only held together by a few screws

The question is do I put it this way

Or

 

[Scottishross]

This is the process so far I'm planning on fitting 5 Stanley sortmaster junior boxes into or between the legs of the cabinet

 

[Scottishross]

Spent a few hours on building my racking just need to buy more storage boxes

 

[Scottishross]

Brought a used table saw
12" blade

I'm planning on building a stand to go round it to make it more stable and safe

 

[Scottishross]

Brought a few snap on tools
