How big is this area roughly? I would love to build my own scale garage

joe122 · 01-25-2015, 07:13 AM

Thanks guys! Started out as a thought to give somewhere more scale than my counter top during the winter for a place for photos, keeps morphing! The floor area is 24" x 38". The walls are 16" H. Walls were just 1/4" foam board. Hope this helps.

Watching this fabulous shop together has me antsy to break ground on my garage , management is trying to evict me from the present new location which I like the most!!!!! LOL Loving your progress!

joe122 · 01-25-2015, 05:55 PM

See that's the problem with management, they force change! You can't fight management, there fore as I had to face as well, I had to build my own shop! Didn't like the laundry room any more anyway! LOL.

Wow, that's awesome. Nice job. See I relegated myself to the workbench area in the garage to avoid conflict or eviction. I'm the landlord out there

. Instead I get the "I never see you because you're always out there" comment

I got the bug to add some floor jacks, saw these built by another forum member, thought they were beyond my ability to make. Gave it a shot, think I am OK with them. Think I need some Craftsman decals!

Bits and pieces.....

Rough assembly....

Finished up....

Mike490 · 11-23-2015, 05:25 PM

Nice job on the jacks. Wow

Thanks! And no problem, a few of my ideas came from other RCC members and just trying to mimic full size garage accessories.

JRapid · 12-15-2015, 09:59 AM

This shop is awesome man. What's the white material you use for most of the pieces? Is it foam board or plastic?

Thanks! Yes, sides are foam board. The furniture, cart etc is styrene, work bench & parts rack is wood.
