carport, nice and cosy,
if "most equiped shed " was at one end of the scale, i'd sit nicely at the other end!.
But hey at least i got a vw, right.

My Manx lives is a space that 250mm wider and 1 metre longer than it is. It's OK if your working on the engine or front suspension if you push it
back and forwards, but anything from the side is a real bugger.

Got a shed - just cant drive to it. Did an extension that crosses into the old driveway :o
Now i just have a great place to store bits
Any other stuff is done in the front driveway or on the street.
Other wise - its off to V Force  . Lucky for me they are just round the
corner!

I have two nice garages, but have trouble walking in both, so the poor Kombi lives outside
Still contemplating knocking a wall out the house and make good use of the spare bed rooms
Just don't let the missus know :o

hehe I like this game
Well I have a total of 13m x 13m of floor space with a 4.5m roof in the main shed. It is currently looking a little bare but I do have parking for
about 20 cars outside of this now. Also have a 2 car carport.
Equipment wise I still have floor and wall space so I am getting soft. I have a few odd tools lying around ( ones DAZ67 and BAJAWES haven't
broken yet )and hope to add the 2 post hoist in the not to distant future. Soon I will have the mill and lathe back and once I run 3 phase to it I
will even be able to plug it all in again. Then I just need to pich up the 85cfm compressor so I can run the big ass blast cabinet.
Now if only I had the time to use all my toys and space.:cry |

So, wot is your shed like
Have a 9.6mx12.5mx3m shed colourbond, a 6mx6m shed zincalume and dont know the size of the bunker yet as I haven't emptied it since I bought it,
solid concrete single car garage with big workshop. The last one came complete with lathes(wood and metal), electric hacksaw, drill presses and usual
gear that an engineer would use over a 50+year career.volma1
They are still there, just have faith you'll find one.

Not big enough (is a shed ever too big?) - only a single car garage under the house plus a bit of extra room for compressor, benches etc etc - tighter
than I like

I thought I was doing it tough. But, I now realise that I have it pretty good. I have a highset house with parking for 2 cars and a workshop 3M x 5M
to keep the tools and parts
It's pooring rain in BrisVagus today and my Kombi is under the house snug as a bug in a rug. Lifes Good:thumb |

Well Brad if you want to be like that I should take you out to my Dads. Two sheds, 12m x 40m and 4m x 12m, and more machines than you know what to do
with.
Now he's reitred they don't get a lot of use any more. I just need to convince him to let me loose on them (he's very protective of it
all). :cry

mine is two car wide, has enough clearance to work on the side, and can almost fit both my type 3's in long ways. only problem is mum took it
over for her business so i've been relegated to under some shadecloth while the other sits under a car cover. i have started accumulating more
parts recently and i am starting to win it back. once the new paint goes on, i score a garage attatched to the house. pretty snug fit for the type 3
but keeps it undercover.

I have a Big double garage - so messy , it has only enough room for my Oval.
The big problem is when doing repairs, it takes just as much time finding the parts and tools as the job itself.
One day I'll clean it ( and get rid of the gear my wife stowed in there.)
