Garage photos

The garage is a 6-car garage, and measures 36 x 36 ft. Plumbing was roughed in by the previous owner, but other than that it's unfinished. That's a good thing because it allows us to set it up the way we want with electrical, shop air, etc. The plan is to turn this into a workshop, and build another detached 3-car garage across from this one. Yes, we are crazy. ;-) But this allows the shop for woring on vehicles, like when I start to build my Cobra replica car, and the 3-car garage will be for storage of vehicles and bicycles.

The upper area of the ceiling will be floored in in areas to create a mezzanine for storage. We'll also build a stairway for access to the upper level. Othe plans are for a motorcyle lift (which we have) and a car lift (which we need to buy). Zac is also planning to put in a bathroom, mini-fridge, and small office area.


There were pack rats living in the garage, so we have cleared the brush on the backside of the building and an extermination service set up bait boxes with poison. Zac also filled in all gaps between the walls and floors where the rats were getting in with spray foam.
