Wren's 2car Mechanic Shop

[wren57]

Moved in a few weeks ago, it's 19'6" wide x 20'6" deep. Wasn't much when I got it:

Got the RaceDeck FreeFlow XL down and all my junk moved in and somewhat organized:

Could barely park one car in it as it sat:

Moved a few things into the house and made room for the daily driver:

Still wasn't happy about it. Way too much STUFF in the garage and not nearly enough workspace. Got 5 4' dual T5 fixtures installed, cleared some stuff out, relocated trash cans to fenced in sideyard, got some shelving and rearranged so all my workbenches are on the right side. Lots of room now.

Will get some more pics as time/weather permits.

Got a picture tonight with both cars loaded in:

The BMW is about 2" from the wall.

Changed my spark plugs tonight. Took my time, got it done in about 90 minutes.

Okay, my OCD is kicking in...

What are the two sets laid out on the bench? The blue one looks like a master torx/e-torx set. Looks like a Neiko set to me. What about the red set?

Thanks in advance!

Good eye. You're right on the blue set.

The red set is 208pc Craftsman Ultimate Screwdriver Bit Set

Thanks for the kind words. I have done some work in my unfinished basement to turn it into a woodshop, think I'm going to post those photos in here as well. They might get more action than the garage since it required a good bit more creativity.

Quite a few changes to the layout and a LOT of work done on the BMW. Changed basically all the suspension and braking components. Can't wait to get it on the ground and aligned. Can't get one bolt out, still have a few ideas in mind.
