who has a shop???
« on: Aug 14, 2008, 10:14:41 PM »
I'm moving to a new place with the gf and her pops is buying a plot of land and a new modular home and i apparently get a shop...so I'm looking for pictures and specs(what you have in it and size and dimensions) i.e. above ground lift, compressed air plumed through out the shop, and any other things that would be helpful in a backyard shop.

If nothing else, there are a couple of good posts on Pirate...they talk about size, materials, lighting, etc.

what constitutes a shop? you get a covered tent in the backyard? or something with barn doors?

i one day plan on having a real lift, 4 post driveuo.... but those are expensive.... around 15k

Ahh, the annual arrival of the "blue haired crepe necked stop light staller"...Arizona's state bird, I believe the scientific name is "Slowdriverus Exwisconsinii Tempor Arizona"
