Garage Project
Our first remodeling work in the garage started with giving the garage a good clean-out in May 2009. In November work started in earnest with painting one half and building a new workbench. We added some more shelving in January 2010, and in May 2010 we cleared the other side of the garage, replaced the window, and built more shelving and storage space.
And that’s how things stayed until 2019 when I finally decided to tackle the growing mess at the end of the garage.

Space is a bit tight – Here’s the bench laid out on the garage floor just so I can check it all fits. I’ve just got the legs for the benchtop to make now, and then it has all got to be assembled. The wall has to be painted before we can put it up too. Ginger is helping out by fixing the wall and painting it.
