This is a great video. My "shop" is 24x24 with a 10x16' side room-motorcycle area. I get tired of these videos of 30x50 1 car garage all spotless-yours looks like it's actually used. I've been trying for years to organise mine without spending $100,000 on storage stuff and you gave me a few ideas, thank you.

FYI I had problems with my concrete in my garage too. I went with a four post lift . I am able to get the wheels off the ground using the rolling bridge jack that came with the lift . You said in your video that with a four post lift you can’t get the wheel off the ground and do work. But that’s not true . So down the road if you are interested in a 4 post lift they do allow wheel removal and suspension work .
@SomeGuysGarage
@SomeGuysGarage Жыл бұрын
True enough, bridge jacks do solve some of that...though underside access isn't quite as good with that setup (nor is mine compared to a 2 post). I also didn't have the height for a 4 post, didn't mention it in the video but I only have 9 feet of clear height (10 feet for most of it, but a beam drops down around a foot across the middle).

Dealing with a small space myself, so I came here for ideas. Never gave this a thought, but does the "exhaust" fan not have to be ignition-protected? I use three of those cheap-o twin window fans myself (got all of them out of the garbage), but I never thought before about a potential disaster.

I guess it depends what you're doing in there...for welding fumes or car exhaust (not that you should ever run a vehicle while the door is closed) or just general humidity removal it's fine. If you're making a lot of saw dust or using fuel-gas (like oxy-acetylene or even just pouring gasoline) then you'd probably not want to run an exhaust fan in those situations as they're potentially flammable.

I keep my ladders in the shed and basement. Though I used to store my little 5 foot step ladder on the wall with the vinyl hooks (the hooks are stil there), but got annoyed having to pull vehicles out to get to it...so it stays inside now too. The only thing I can't get to without a ladder is the top shelf of bins (which I strategically made things I don't use often), I can reach the first row of bins and anything in the cabinets or above I just climb onto the workbench. So isn't too often I need a ladder.

I'd definitely go 18 feet if you have the ability, but really 20 feet would be more ideal for parking two vehicles and having them accessible.

@@vintagemagiccollector2245 Glad to be of some help! Always an option to go up instead of wider, a 16 wide with a lift and 12+ foot ceilings (do a 1 foot stem wall with the foundation with 12' framed on top, so you end up 13ish finished height, keeping that bottom plate a foot up is nice for us here in Canada) is a great option for tucking away two vehicles AND having room to work around one.

Hey SomeGuy. I'm a hobbyist woodworker who needs some brass pieces machined. Do you do? Or what's the best direction?? (Dave in Guelph)

Are your lathe and mill single phase? Would you buy them again?
@SomeGuysGarage
@SomeGuysGarage 9 ай бұрын
Yup, they are 120v single phase on regular 15a circuits. I bought both of them used in Canada, which limited my options. I'd probably go Precision Matthews if I were in the US and buying new.

@@SomeGuysGarage I’m actually in Europe so looking at options for a home setup. Have a garage of similar size maybe slightly narrower but would never have any cars parked in there even though there’s room for one. You have a great setup

@@bull7618Thanks! Size wise, these are just about right. I might bump up to a 12x36 if I had more room for the lathe, the bed gets used up pretty fast when drilling with the tailstock. The mill seems about right, though a variable speed with gear head with a bit more torque down low would be nice for larger drilling operations. Had to work with the space and budget I had though (like anyone else).

It's just rubber roll mats you can get by the foot at places like princess auto up here...nothing special.

ha! small, come to England and you'll see that space is huge, my garage is so small i can't even park my family hatchback in it, never mind work on a car in it.

@SomeGuysGarage Жыл бұрын
That's a fair point, around here this is small...if I never wanted to park in it, I could do so much more (e.g. CNC plasma or waterjet, larger mills/lathes, proper fab table, etc.)

Your panel is not legal at all. Exposed wire under 7 feet is not legal. The MC cable is OK.

Thank the shitty electrician that wired the house for that. I did all the MC, the rest was the builder's electrician....it passed (somehow, I even talked to the ESA about it but they said it was "to code" at the time) but there's a lot of other stuff I don't like that he did. Watch part 1 of my basement finishing video, I'm sure you can spot a few more terrible electrical things from the builder.
