Hi all,
I've asked on this forum in the past about garage extension ideas. Well my lovely wife has put paid to that idea, she really really doesn't want to spoil the look of our house. It would look very one sides with a garage extension on a garage extension.
So, tonight we sat and talked and she gave me permission to keep my single garage as a secure store for any portable tools, bikes, lawn mower and mechanical tools for car maintence.
I could probably even keep the table saw in the garage... but i'd rather not if at all possible.
So my question really is - Show me your L shaped workshop building? I have a space i can create a workshop in, its long and thin and L shaped.
This is the current layout:
My wife says as long as it looks pretty i can use all the space outlined in green below:
can i make a decent workshop out of that space? Big enough to have a proper table saw, router table, and assembly table?? I know Peter Millard works in a small space and achieves an awful lot, i've seen that guy in the shipping container making skateboards.... any photos or images/links you are able to share are very much appreciated. Its all in the very early design stage - first can it be done, would it make a good workshop?
Second will be things like roof design, SIP panels/door placement etc etc...
My table saw is a decent size with a. sliding arm at the side of it for full sheets like this one:
Any help appreciated.
Thanks again
