Re: Show us your shop!
 

Guys

I have two garages, the one at home is just for parking the car I want to use that week. I live 5 miles from my business and have two bays in an industril building that are used to store and restore cars.

Two bays of 700 sq ft each, one is the workshop and the other just for storing cars and tires&quot;
The floor is two part epoxy from Home depot, applied in Jan 2014 along with baseboards and a repaint on the walls. The colors are Sunoco Blue and yellow for the hoist and Lemans/Gulf colors on trim.

The hoist is a Hoffman screwjack style with 8000 lb capacity
Other tools are Sandblast cabinet, Homemade paint booth from a file cabinet,Full air throughout shop, heater. Compressor is a Campbell Hausfield dual phase, 5 HP with 80 gallon tank.

Paul,

Is that a wine cooler mixed in with the cabinets?? If so, great idea. I'd never leave the garage.

Very nice set up you have.

Re: Show us your shop!
 

That is a wine cooler and a full size fridge, we have no basement in our house so the wine cooler is in the garage along with the overflow fridge.

Eric, I had all types of shops in mind when I suggested this thread and yours is the type of shop that folks round here want to see. It is definitely a working shop - no posing around there! Folks want to see the working environment of the carburetor genius!!!!

Re: Show us your shop!
 

Yep!

Let's just say for now that it bears a vague resemblance to the following:

Another striking similarity--any time money gets near my shop it mysteriously disappears into seeming nothingness... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

Some sort of nefarious forces at work.....

Re: Show us your shop!
 

I like this new section so here's what I have.
Nothing special or over the top like some I've seen. Being a carpenter held me in good stead when I did an extension to my house and built a new garage a few years ago. I was drag racing at the time and didn't really think I would ever have a hoist and as such didn't care too much about head height, so needless to say I fall a little short of being able to store one car over the other. A real pain now. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img] Anyway, here it is and some of my junk in it over the last few years.

Re: Show us your shop!
 

Nice! Where did you get the large versions of the old car advertisements?

Re: Show us your shop!
 

Thanks guys.
Marlin, the advertising stuff I got from a guy at a show here in Melbourne. They are basically A3 reprints on thicker paper that I laminated.

Right you are Dan. I was actually looking at some pics of that '69 a week or 2 ago and am starting to have some regrets, so it is a distinct possibility. Anyone say, Burnished Brown. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

Defending Eric and speaking from LOTS of experience, one does not have to have a spit polished shop to produce a great product. I worked out of a 2 1/2 car garage for 20 years restoring cars. Finally moved to a much larger shop with space for 6 cars (thought there are 12 in there) and NOT proud of either shop. Some day I will have a spit polished shop!

Well that looks a hell of a lot cleaner than when I last saw it (maybe 10 years ago?). Looks great!

Re: Show us your shop!
 

Wow I can not believe its been 10 years since you guys were over how time flys.

Re: Show us your shop!
 

And that was a guess! Could have been longer. Don't even remember why I was in Chicago then or who I was with when we stopped by. Chad maybe?
