Well, I guess it's time I finally share some photos of my space. Before last week I had everything just the way I wanted it until an absolutely stupid deal on a new toolbox came my way, so I've got a couple things i need to fix but we'll start with the way it looked a week ago and the transformation to now.

Here's what it looked like before the new tool box...nothing really fancy just a nice space to work.








and here is an overall view of the single car garage.





I need to order another New Age Pro wall cabinet to add above the toolbox to help even some things out. The extra storage would be pretty nice as well.



Now onto the two car garage side....

On this side I had a little cut out space by the window that I wanted to add some storage as well as a small work bench for other projects that won't require something as sturdy as the other table.

I made this out of MDF and then applied cork board flooring for the finished top to create a different look. I used bamboo trim on the back side to create a seamless finished look.







I've still got some work to do, as I'd like to find a way to end up hiding the air compressor and the hose reel but until I work out the plans for those this will have to do.

Here are some more close ups of the butcher block top I finished for the toolbox and the old Wilson Bullet Vise that a coworker refurbished for me.







Well, that's it... I know it's not as sophisticated as some but I'm pretty happy with it. Let me know your thoughts!

Here's what I did for the walkway between the two sides...I still needed some storage for yard tools, etc. but also wanted to have a place to store some less commonly used items that were still within reach. So I added these two shelves I got from amazon. They hold a fair amount / look good and were fairly inexpensive.






Not as clean as I'd like it to look, but not a lot of other options.

Why is there a walkway? Do you have an exterior shot with both doors open? I is confused.

Ha! I'll take one when I get home. It's only to access 1 car without going outside. A lot of the homes we looked at before purchasing this one had no access to the single car except from the outside and I always thought it was odd that way...

Am I the only one that just sees fuzzy pictures with a Photobucket logo emblazoned superimposed on the photo fuzziness?
