1/19/2012 11:17:41 AM Report AbuseA few feet off to the side of my garage is a small storage shed where I am able to keep my lawn equipment, storage boxes and such. I do wish I had aseparate shop for welding and such. But that will come with time. Luckily my garage has a carport on it so I can keep the truck there<);o}

10/20/2011 09:24:49 PM Report AbuseGot 1/2 of a two car garage without the dust collector problem--I thought ahead and put it outside in a shed and use a remote switch to turn it on and have only 4" holes in ceiling space. As a master electrician(retired) I built the power then vaccuum, then stationary tool locations--the rest of you guys must luv noise--why else you put the vaccuum inside?
10/20/2011 07:21:57 PM Report AbuseTo: JREST3 Have you thought about a tankless water heater. Just mount it on the wall above the washer and dryer
10/20/2011 05:50:49 PM Report AbuseIf only I didn't have all this bothersome wood that I have to be able to get to!
10/20/2011 04:44:15 PM Report AbuseTHIS IS A NICE GARAGE SHOP. I'M BUILDING A 2-CAR GARAGE WOOD SHOP FOR RETIREMENT & FUN. MY SHOP WILL HAVE A SEPERATE WASHER AND DRYER AREA AND HOT WATER HEATER AREA BUT I STILL AM WORKING AROUND THESE PROBLEMS AND LOOKING FOR IDEAS TO SAVE SPACE.
10/20/2011 12:34:46 PM Report AbuseAlso note that this is a 2-1/2 car garage, not a 2-car garage. The extra width make a big difference
10/20/2011 11:51:10 AM Report Abusethese plans are all well and good but in the real world, we also have to contend with other, space robbing elements of the smaller garage / shop. Lawn equipment, storage boxes, seasonal stuff like lawn chairs... and we also need lumber storage.. with all my tools against the wall, i have no place to put plywood and such plus no place to hang anymore pegboard.
