Hey guys/gals,

I recently started to "finish" my garage bit by bit. I got drywall up on the ceiling and tomorrow I'm going to start insulating and drywalling the walls. I want this to be a killer workshop and am looking to see what neat gadgets, setups and other neat options you guys have worked up in your garage/workshop/man cave/basement...you get the idea. Show us whatcha got!!

Looks like a great space! Seems to have plenty of room. The garage door will be a plus! I'd say fist thing is TV, fridge and some sexy posters!

Nice shop pics. I just started enclosing my 10 x 20 carport. Not as much room as I'd like, but for under $1000, I can't complain. I got the outside wall done and 9 x 7 garage door installed. Just waiting for inspection of the framework(I hate living in the city) so I can finish up with drywall and paint. It's already nice to have a little room to work on things instead of dragging everything into the living room.

I hear ya, Rob. It's definitely going to be awesome as soon as I get the shop lights back up and my outlets in on the walls, I'm going for the insulation and drywall. Hopefully will have it done today!

Niceee!!!! Go for a HD LED tv. And a sweet sound system..

I've been working on my basement workshop. First thing I added was a workbench, so I have a place to put my woodies (or trash lol...). Now to knock out that far wall and enlarge it

Small but I get my stuff done

Mike, however many outlets you currently have, double it if you can!! You always need more that you have (they are like clamps, never enough)!!!

I told my g/f the same thing when we first started dating.

Finished off my 16 x 22 space a few years ago.. currently it is a mess.. but here is how it used to look... maybe I should clean it back up.

That's a great looking shop, Rich!! I need to be that organized!

I am going to be re-vamping my basement (shop,laundry room,office) in the spring. I am still trying to find either a 42" or 48" steel door that dosen't look "industrial" and be reasonable in cost. after that is is a new subfloor and VCT flooring in the shop and a drop cieling. my basement is so cold this winter that I can't work down there. the concrete floor just makes it miserable. I am going to make a set of french doors so seperate the shop from the office and add a secondary circulation system to help keep the dust down from the CNC. My shop is 13'x35'.

how do you insert a pic. tried to put a pic of my shop on here put cant figure out how to do it. thanks

There should be a "Manage Attachments" button if you click on Go Advanced...

here is a pic of my shop. there is plenty of room if i can keep my wife's car out. lol

Very nice Midwest. That's what I'm going for. A bright white shop. I doubt I can keep mine that neat either. Good job.
