Show Your Setup - Sweeet Garage Set ups
i have been looking at sheds and garages dreaming of my ideal set up! i dont have one but it would be kool to see some of your set ups and see how some are doing things.. seeing some of the set ups in the board storage forums looks pretty sweet! my dream set up would be a wake boat in the centre bay, bike trailer and bikes next to the boat and a caravan on the other side! and obviosly enough room to have a lounge, tv and a beer fridge set up for the man cave haha What ave you got?

Unreal garage, so much space. Cool great Danes.

I officially hate you. Hahaha.

I can't wait to have a shop one day. Just hard to find around here as real estate is so damn expensive. $ 500k doesn't even buy S##t. I have my truck, wifes car, boat, Pacer, and I am hoping to put a 63 Impala in my driveway here soon. Very jealous of you guys in the US that can buy a nice house and land for next to nothing.

Cali is probably the same. Cali is so beautiful with so much scenery but I would never live there. The Northeast is expensive. |

Come to the Peninsula in the CA Bay Area. See what you get for $500K. a 1 bedroom apt maybe... |
Since last fall I've been building a 16'x32' garage next to my house. I'm constrained on width because it's between my existing attached garage and the edge of my property. I used conventional construction, with concrete foundation, slab, 2x4 walls, engineered trusses, etc. My brother-in-law did the framing and siding, him and myself and others in the family helped with the roof, I did the electrical, and we're still working on the insulation & sheetrock. Going to end up costing me about $15k I believe (up in Pacific NW). I put a 10x8 door but the inside is 10' tall so I can fold up my tower inside (still need to fold it down to put the boat in/out).
|
I'm highly aware that not all places in the states are cheap. But there are quite a few places that are. I live just outside of Vancouver, BC but the whole area is now considered one of the most expensive places in the world to live. I'm just envious of those that do live in these areas.

Beginning to wish i never started this thread lol..its going to cost me alot of money!

My grandfather had a boathouse similiar to Marks on lake Oneonta,NY.Man it doesnt get any better than that for convenience and keeping boat safe and protected at the same time!!Nice!
|
(TXJOLE) I see you live in DFW - what Lake you on? love the garage and man cave....

Aaron, If you built that for 17k I would say you did awesome I would have guessed it would have cost more than twice that. My brother is getting ready to build almost exactly what you have built minus the tall doors.
Mark your boathouse is great. There are several of those on our lake but most have been abandoned and I have always wondered why. Pricing where I live is awesome. Here you can buy a 3 bedroom house on the lake for less than 200k. |

Not mine, but a house I'm working on.

I built mine mostly myself. It's 24x32, 12ft. walls, 10x11 doors, and I pitched it 8/12 so I could have an upstairs. I have 10k in it right now.
|
Chris, I love that "shed." You have unlimited potential for the interior in it. I'm picturing epoxy on the floor, walls with cabinets, a work station where the truck is...

Attachment 21599 Attachment 21600 Attachment 21601Here is mine, I just moved into this house but the selling feature for me what the 4 car tandem garage. I fixed it up a bit but it is basically my dream garage now. |
Mark, that boat house is sooo sick!!

Is that 10k with the concrete? If so thats hell of a good price, do you have the drawings by any chance? Any pics of the upstairs? That is just the perfect size building for me. |

Concrete pad: 100/yard $1400 + 600 labor = 2000 (contracted out) Roof: stick built $900 ( truss option was $2100) Shingles: $800 + $400 labor (two guys said they would shingle it for 400, and I said deal) Garage doors : $2000 (contracted out, not my strong suit and they needed to work) I wish I could have went wider, but I couldn't. 32x32 would have been my choice. |

Not my actual garage but I have a access to it at any time and it's 15 mins away. My dad works at a prep school as the Dir. Of Building Services and this is the schools shop. It contains an auto shop, electrical, wood shop, and there's two more bays to the right in this pic. I used their industrial washer yesterday to clean my cover. It has every tool you could imagine, all available at anytime. I have a good deal with this setup. My boat is stored at my fathers on trailer. He has a nice two bay garage but not wide enough to fit the boat. |

I'll play..here is the garage plan for the house we are building. The single door is for the boat. I can't wait for this to be finished.
|
Mallenger,
Looks like you are going 9x9 with the boat door. Check your clearance good. Top of my tower on my 226...folded down...was 9 feet 2 inches tall. That's why I had to build an out building with a 10 foot door to replace the 8 footer that was there. My older 226 with tower fit under the 8 no problem, but some of the boats sit high on the trailer and folded angles are funkier then ever on these towers. Good luck with your project. Love the curve in your floor plan. Ken |

Ken, i've actually backed my 21v into an 8' door (had to lower the tires a few psi). So that's why I am going with the 9' door. 10' is tempting now that you mention it...
|
I would go 10 wide by 12 tall that way if u ever get a bigger boat it would still fit. My old 236 on an ez loader illusion barely fit in the 10 wide door on my unit. My tower height was a little over 11 ft on the trailer. Very nice to not have to fold down the tower every time in or out.
|
One thing to make note of is to make sure your garage door is all the way up. We were loading up the boat one day and had the garage door up but not quite all the way. When we pulled out the tower almost pulled the whole door off. Put a pretty big dent in it.
|
I'll just be taking the boat out of the garage once a year to put on the lift. Then put it back in there for a few months in the winter. You are correct though about future boats, may have to discuss this with the builder. David, what is the story with the demo'd garage there?

boats getting some new interior and ready for the year, but is normally parked in the shop. boat, 2 quads, and jeep fit in there with room to chill around the bar area.
|
Love your setup Tims....!
|
Ben Soundbox... No you may not, I'm guessing not the spirit of the thread.
Hyperlite Tim72, done, you're it. As long as your boat fits in there during the winter, your the winner. Large flat screen, wet bar, fold town tables, epoxy, refer, sink, and if i'm not mistaken a loft too? |
some real good set ups here guys... keep em coming!!

Ben, I'll take that 63 rag top. The 62's pretty nice as well.
|
Tim72 wins by a million. To have a tv and a bar with boat stored two feet away is heaven in my eye. I like just sitting in my boat with. No one around and if I had that sit up I'd prolly be getting divorced bc my wife would never see me hahaha.

my garage

Got the boat home today with the new interior from Etco Marine, as always they did a great job. i will say the bar area in the shop gets to be pretty fun, turn on some tunes in the boatand use a RF remote to control it, and sometimesi do chill in the boat and watch movies. http://i336.photobucket.com/albums/n...4-28-12003.jpgMG]

|
Tim, have you dialed in watching the game/tv from sitting in the boat?
|
After Tim's pictures, I walked into my garage and started to measure things out!
|
races/games/tv no. bc its a pain to get in and out of the boat to get beers ;)
Boo Coo if you want some measurements i can get some for you. one thing ive thought of doing is extending the bar sitting area with the same bar top material but having it hinge out with a support bar holding it in place. the cabinets are from home depot same as the bar top/ sink/ faucet/ 5 gallon hot water heater and kegerator. |
chris B sent you a message on here.
who else has some sick setups? |
I just built this last February. This photo is right when I finished and the rollup door isn't even installed yet. 25'X41'X14'
Still need to pour an apron and sidewalks. Those T-5 HOs are BRIGHT! https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-B...0%252B0000.jpg https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-5...0%252B0000.jpg |

Well, there are some nice set ups on here!
My garage is nothing glamorous, but it is convenient! In over 10 years, the boat trailer has not moved more than the 30 feet down to the water :) |
Phil did you ever get you sail boat done?
Chris that is my ideal setup but put a track system in the floor. |

Just my attached garage. Will hold 3 cars; we keep the boat, mower, and wife's car in it with a will workbench area for me in the back. I do have to pull the mower and wife's car out to get the boat out. We are looking to build a 24x30 storage building at the back of our property this summer for winter storage and to store some things we currently have outside due to lack of garage space.
