Edit (This thread & idea was Scott's "4StarCstms" & want to make sure he gets the credit.)
I moved his initial post back to the sugestions area & we can continue on with this thread here in the non tractor area...Thanks Scott. whtractor/not_worthy.gif

Actually sounds like you have a good idea Scott! whtractor/thumbsup2.gif
We could use it to talk about shop buildups, who has the most messy whtractor/hide.gif , or even homebuilt shop tools like Mike's "sorkiwi's" electrolysis tank or a homebuilt sandblast cabinet like Steve's "refracman".

Exactly.. I spent some time over on MTF browsing theirs.. and on Garage Journal .. man those folks have some KILLER garages!!

Ill be building a 12x16 in the next couple weeks... Im hoping to do like E did..step by Step just on a smaller scale and without the whole building inspector thing..

Maybe Coach will like the idea.

I think I can take the prize for the messiest. If there are worse then mine I would be quite suprised. LOL I go out there and feel like this whtractor/disgust[1].gif help.gif whtractor/dunno.gif unsure.gif

I think my would be a strong contendor for messiest.
Atleast I don't have a rodent problem...the spiders eat them.

Mine is so messy i have now taken over the driveway. whtractor/omg.gif

A close tie perhaps LOL. I'm working on making it cleaner though. WInter is coming and I'll be needing the space to do some horsey work. I travel alot in the "non snowing season" for work but sort of lay low in the winter which is when I spend most of my time in the garage.

Once I get off the stice and finish the D200 tranny swap and roll that out, the D250 will be next to finish as I now have all the parts I need. I'm hoping to get that done soon because I picked up a plow for it and an excited to try it out.

simpleman- 10-29-2008
Ive actully been working on mine. My goal is to have the rest of the stuff in the garage by next weekend. tongue.gif If we had a shop section we could be talking about this there

Rideawaysenior- 10-29-2008
Well, lets talk to the Nylyon and see what his thoughts are.

Hey Stephen You don't call, you don't write and you already have to know that nobody could even touch my garage as far as being the messiest, Bar None!! I know that Steve will back me up on that one for sure. But one just never knows what might happen very soon in the garage from
H_ _ _. See Ya Bye Burly

Ah ha a con-*test*-('") I might win. This messiest shop prize shale be mine. horseplay.gif

It does sound like a good idea for a separate section . Shop builds, storage projects plus the new and home built tool information. whtractor/thumbsup.gif

whtractor/huh.gif You mean y'all have shops? I have a couple rooms in my basement that are so crowded I can't get a whole 'Horse inside at once. Six of my tractors and except for two decks all my impliments are sitting outside, taking up so much room I have most of my cars parked in the woods behind my parents house. Come to think of it I have so much stuff at their house my dad had to build another building for his stuff since mine took up all the room in the other four buildings. My little metal storage shed has rounded walls from all the shi, er, stuff packed into it. I don't have a critter problem 'cause they all ran off screaming the last time I opened the door and gave them an out. But... there is hope. I'm closing in on the last couple rooms of my remodel/reconstruction to my house and when (read IF) I can ever get done, I should have some working room.

laughter.gif i think we need a con-*test*-('")!!!!!! I'll put mine up, i have a 3 sided shop witht the front open, 24 x 36 with 6 worktables in it, 3 , 12 foot bays, and my tools are scattered on all tables, spend half of my time going from table to table, also each table has a different project on it. right now i have 2 tables with newly painted GT parts laying out , the paint needs to dry at least two weeks , huh, laugh.gif
my wife and son and daughterr cleaned it up this past summer, tools all together and sockets in place, electric cords rolled up, air hose straighten out, everthing in place,,,,EXCEPT when i went back out there i couldn't find a $@@@# thing bitch.gif bitch.gif got it back in shape now ... i told them i would spray paint them with green paint if they ever did that again... got so much junk inside can't move around without weaving aroun motor hoist, washer, cement mixer, fridge, of course my easy chair, and coffee table, and tv, gun safe, welder, cutting torch, parts bin,stored lumber, stored steel, and of course blocks, ramps, floor jacks, sandblaster and just to much to mention, this is a word of caution,,,,no matter how big a shop you have it is a magnet, it will collect stuff, sometimes i find stuff i don't even remember where it came from...

we should post some pics.....jerry

Ive been poking around on some other sites, and alot of them have a seperate section for garage and workshop related stuff..

Personally, I really enjoyed following E's garage buildup and Stigs workshack Extension..

Might be neat to see where everybody does their Horse work.. Ya never know what you might see that somebody else has done that would make your workshop more organized or something.

Just a thought!

Scott, I work on my Wheel Horse's in the Grey Garage with Blue trim . I change the engine oil the tractors I use for work replace worn out spark plugs with new ones myself Dad rebuilds the motors for me and I help him . Ben horseplay.gif
