Some of you may remember that I was looking for a bigger shop awhile back. Well, insted of building one we decided to move one of the vehicles out of the garage and use some of that space for storage and the rest of it for my shop.

Yay more room!!!

There was a great article in Handyman magazine on a how-to for an addition to a garage. It was still on their site a couple of months ago. Fairly inexpensive for the added room. Never have enough working room! Funny how it just fills right up! LOL!

Good For you. Aaron. Only problem with a bigger shop is, soon you will need a bigger shop.

I don't think there is ever enough space. I have 3 large rooms and it still isn't enough.

I move the vehicles out of my garage if I have a very large project but just temporarily until the project is finished. Up here in Michigan we kind a like to keep our vehicles inside in the winter if possible for obvious reasons.

I have a 10 X 20 foot shop and most everything is on wheels that works fairly well most of the time.
