Its been 3 years in the making but I’m finally done with my little budget shop/garage project. The most shocking thing to me is that it all only cost $5,500 which is a reasonable budget for most folks. I never intended for it to be so functional, but here I am restoring and building cars with it, so I guess it actually works.

Love the video. You're hysterical. Also, pretty nice little work space. Congrats 👍
Dude !! Good shit man! That’s awesome you have the tools you love and organized exactly how you need it! Rad man!
Haha great video! My guy reminds me a lot of me hahaha 🤣, can’t wait to see the video of the 86!
I have a 8×12 shed and a open air garage with a earth floor.
Dude, this is a great set up! The family and I just got into our new house and I have been watching all sorts of "garage set up" videos. Ha, most of which are pretty unrealistic like you were mentioning. This is easily my favorite set up.
I am looking forward to getting my new garage set up. Haha, also looking forward to making a "welcome to my new garage video" for my small community to watch. I definitely need to invest in that quick jack too. Great video, you have another sub! Cheers!
Good shit man. I am in the process of doing a similar build. How is it holding up on bad weather days?
Awesome vid, great tips, funny and entertaining.
This is basically what I am going to do with my 12×20 carport, but I am going to add 2 small storage sheds on the side of it for my tools and paint. So that i have the full space just to paint cars and motorcycles. Might put very high shelving inside but I don't want nothing inside of it other than a car.
This is some good shit. Nuclear powered right?
