Setting up a new garage.
« on: November 23, 2012 - 09:05:33 PM »
  This summer fellow member Matt (Black71) and his wife bought their first home. Last week he draged his project car and parts home from his dads house in Weiser (which I'm sure made dad happy) and stuffed them in the garage. Now comes the fun part of getting it set up and useable. We had a fairly nice day here in Boise so I got the cuda out for one last drive and went over to Matts to check it out and offer my    :2cents:   on how to set up HIS garage.   ::)   Here's some begining pics.  Needs a lot more lighting and peg board---but it will be fun to watch things evolve. If he puts some heat in there I might even be pursueded to do a little wrenching this winter.     ;D

That'll be a sweet garage.  He's already off to a great start.  Wish I had that much elbow room.

Two things I think every garage should have is (clean) air compressor and a blast cabinet.

Looks great!   :cheers:
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

In my garage, I put in a Natural Gas Heater and several Fluorescent Lights overhead and above the bench. Nothing worse than freezing and not being able to see pulling wrenches and working on projects.
