Ok, so I'm excited, but I just got back from my Oregon property and my new garage is well on it's way towards completion. Here are a couple of photos to share. This building is 40'x60' and has my office in one end. Always planning for the future, I have a bath/shower in the office in case I manage to get kicked out of the house.

thats a nice one!!! i want one like that! and it looks like you left enough room for a pump between the garage doors. ive drawn my new garage up but i dont think its going to be quite that nice. i was sure to make enough room for some pumps between the doors. no more big garage doors the ol lady hits the opener & dosent know whether to go left or right once the door opens so she parks right in the middle every time! hahaha

What a great building Don! If it were mine, I'd stay "kicked out" of the house. LOL The best part is still to come...setting up and arranging all your displays. I know you are going to enjoy it tremendously.

Don,
Great Garage. Awhile back you ask for suggestions. How about a used resturant deep stainless steel sink with the long drain board, would be great for cleaning stuff. Who knows, if you had to move out you could do your dishes here too. How about a concrete apron (with good drainage) on the side (with a cover) for cleaning up the real dirty stuff. I have always wanted about a 15 foot "I" beam with a trolley on it for a chain fall. If I can make it to Roy Reed's this year how can I find you?

Good idea about the "I" beam Ed, and funny you should mention about the old stainless sink. "Koz" in Klamath Falls had one, and it was working great for him. That got me thinking about getting one too.
As for Roy Reeds, just check the table chart at the front gate. I normally get a table. Oh, I should mention that thanks to "Bob" the garage now has a new name "The Garage-Mahal." Everyone that I mention it to thinks that it fits perfect. My wife is still laughing!
