I've found an interesting website

I "Stumbled" across a pretty good garage oriented website at; The Garage Journal
The first one I saw was this one; The 12-Gauge Garage - The Garage Journal Board
It caused me to break the commandment against Coveting.

Have you ever seen the show called mega garages? I think it was on HGTV. There are the garages to spank over. One in particular is called Taj Ma Garage well worth coveting, IMHO.

Great link. I am working on finishing my 20x30 3 car garage. I have a 4' deep "tool room" off to the side, but too much junk. Anyway, the bitter truth is that 20' isn't enough. You lose more than a foot to the walls and door and my truck is 208" long. Not much room for a bench. The Exploder is 190", the luxobarge 198, so a few cabinets are going to eat that up. The folding table is something I thought of, and the way this dude did it make a lot of sense.

That picture is in the current issue of Popular Mechanics, also.
Those lights are actually inverted cake pans. Look close, you'll see.

That one's nice but a little too clean to be practical. Looks like it would be tough to lose something in there. Now my garage on the other hand...they just found DB Cooper hiding in it after 40 years. Now THAT's a garage!

Sounds like mine- Rumor has it Jimmy Hoffa came over to borrow some tools and never found his way out! That's quite a feat for a one car garage!

Forget the garage, I'll take the car (now that I'm no longer living a mile from an SCCA track)
