Not a welding project but just trying to tidy up the inside of my man cave!

[Exuptoy]

My current garage is 33ft x 13 (and only 11ft at the narrow end....it is an old building, or at least the footprint of it is, I blocked it back up on the original footings over 10 years ago), and with the T2 camper being on it's side and the fact I have a workshop in the back end, it was getting to be in a real state as I am not exactly organised, so I've spent the last week or so trying to make a difference by fitting shelves up high, which takes up no floor space and I've started boxing up so I can find things.

Before....

After.....

A couple of machine mart shelves with stack on boxes and sone steel shelf brackets from tool station and 6 pieces of 2x1 batten for the high level shelves.

Knocked up a door frame with the aid of my old router and some wood glue / nails / 6x1 tantalised timber and fitted an old metal skinned door I had kicking around.

I needed a pull handle to hold the door while I lock the frame bolts so utilised an old brake lever!!!

Also dropped in a footing alongside the garage for my next project so I can get the bikes away from my grinding and welding on the van. My SIL has been doing the steel cage in preparation of the groundwork and gave me a pair of hands today to drop in the footing.

Crikey. And I thought my shed was bad.

Yours makes a scrapyard look tidy!

I'm like a reformed junkie.....I'm getting better! Still sorting though it all.

Bike stands are a nightmare. I must have half a dozen and they take up a phenomenal amount of room.

Your predicament has many similarities to my own...

Nice of your sister in law to help. Most women aren't too happy knocking up concrete

 

[Exuptoy]

Haha, it doesn't help that I've got history for being a hoarder!

Makes me feel a bit better about the mess of my garage though

 

[Exuptoy]

It's a work in progress, honest.

Thanks for posting the pictures, I feel loads better after looking at them as my garage is tidy in comparison.
