Several people liked my recent post on the Scrap metal art or projects thread that showed the various lights in my shop, so I decided to present a more comprehensive thread of my shop.My garage was built in three phases. The original 2 car garage (Dons garage) was built in the 40s. In the 60s a L shaped addition was added, which included an additional parking space (Annes garage) as well as additional space in the rear (Shop plus Mill room). In 2020 I completed an addition across the rear (addition). Below is a plan view of the garage layout.1. Plan view of garage
Here is a view of the entire garage taken from the northwest. The addition is the part on the left side of the picture. 2. View of Garage from NW
As a part of the addition project, I added a new 400-amp electrical service.3. New 400-amp service
I also added a high efficiency furnace and air conditioner. Also notice my pitiful attempt at landscaping.4. Air Conditioner
Here is a view from the SW, which shows the single and two car garages. The addition is the part that sticks out slightly on the upper left side of the picture.5.

Reply:When I retired in July of 2020, I bought this toolbox to hold all of the tools that I had a work. My thought was the additional tool set in the addition of the shop, would minimize the distance that I would have to walk for a tool. The top surface of the new tool box was a convenient place to mount the tube roller.16. Toolbox with tube roller (In front of furnace)

Reply:I see a few flaws in all them photos…First of all there are simply not enough plugs…period. And there is no way in hell that is a TWO car garage…nope…never. A big one car is a more accurate description.There, fixed everything for you OP.
Very nice set up…makes me want more tools which just about means you are winning!
Reply:Great setup and tons of great tools! I am jealous of all your metal working tools! I have a real nice setup in wood but much more limited in metal.-DaveXMT304 with: 22A Feeder, or HF251 Hi Freq DC TIG air cooled
