So Teddy, if you want to put a 36" camper in a 40 x 30 shop, what's the problem there? The main problem is stretching out in that camper....
Meanwhile, we had this installed at the shop Tuesday and one just like it at our house. The grass gets cut Monday

Keeping you "grounded" was meant as no levitating today. It's No Levitation Thursday.....
There is a special sling attachment for the lifts for positioning the sisters. Who wants to try it?

Half of our 2 car garage at house. A little messy.

31x31 shed for trailers. Not much to see here.

It’s a diamond plate pattern rubber mat. It was here when I bought the place. It is terrible because you can’t squeegee water off of it from a dripping vehicle. You have to wait till the water freezes and then shovel the ice out in the winter time. 100% would not recommend.

Damn nice setup, Sir! Man-cave garage, equipment / bike storage garage, pole barn. That's sweet. Can't hide money though, classic hot rod, Harleys, Super Duty, Gator, probably some king of commercial duty zero turn, utility trailer(s). Livin' the dream, Matt!

Adding overhead storage was the first thing I did when I bough the city crash pad.

Oops. There’s the little traeger that I mentioned in the other thread.😂

Anyone got any ideas of what I can’t do with those winter tires and undersized spare? Too heavy to lift up to the overhead storage and I don’t want to lug them back downstairs to the storage room. Carpeted stairs and dirty tires don’t mix. 🤦‍♂️
