Thread: Garage started finally

Tweet

Getting some extra room . The septic and easement are tight only 13 feet there left over . So I purchased a variance to get 3 feet of the easement to make the garage 16 feet wide . So a 16 X 32 is going up and I will have plenty with the other garage to keep projects more together .

There is never enough room , but the more the better

Very true Charlie .

Lookin good! Looks like lots of space! Don Jr.

Looks good! I too am in the process of adding onto my garage. Jumping through all the county hoops now. Doing Oak Tree Mitigation currently. What a pain! Pain in the wallet.

Good start Bobby. Hopefully, since you can't go wider, you're going higher (if that fits any design constraints). I find that I can keep the work area more clear by moving stuff to a loft area so that it's out of the way. One of the side benefits is, I forget some of what I've packed up there over the years (that's not the benefit). But when I go digging around I "discover" hidden treasures!

Or buy it again then find it while putting it away AGAIN

My folks used to live on Oak street by the creek in New Lenox. One of my son's still lives in New Lenox nice town but hard to get along with

If there's one thing I've learned over the last sixty-odd years; it's that 'stuff' expands according to the area available to it.

Good for you Bobby! That should be a good size for most of the toys! LOL...

Thanks to everyone , Charlie the hoops are small here and it's almost like a home owners association now . But better news the pad is down and the wood should be on the lot today sometime . Yee haa 34_40 only plan on 1 at a time but if push come's to shove it will hold a few .
