I have two garages, single attached and double detached. The double ends up being a long term project garage (aka storage) so i end up doing most of my work in the single (ya, all backwards i know).

These pics are when the garages were empty, they are very full with....stuff now.

I also have a temporary garage for my boat/sleds.

Crappy picture, but it shows how much of a "workspace" I have....a concrete pad :(

Image

I have a two car detached, but it is barely deep enough to put my VW in...who the F builds a two car garage that is only 18' deep...on the outside!?! By the time you calculate for the concrete block and the door, it comes out to be 17'...too short to do anything with...

They don't let anyone work on personal stuff at the shop I work at...although my crew leader will let me park my car inside if it's raining, as it gets a lot of water in it. It really sucks as we have a really nice facility, four in ground two post lifts, one 75k drive on lift and one above ground two post lift, plus an additional flat bay. I've been holding off any maintenance on my pile as I really have no where to work on it in these temps (-10 today)

We can work on our personal vehicles since we buy our own tools. We're not supposed to use the hoists though. Thid shop has 2 in ground lifts on the top pic and the bottom has a. Flat and one in ground big enough to lift tandems. And a wash bay. When i worked in Poynette Wi. We had 3 in ground lifts for tandems and one in ground car hoist and 6 flat bays. It was big enough to do a complete digger inspection inside and you could work on an am55 over center inside but you had to unstow it outside and drive it in.
