This is my basic garage.
From the outside looking in:


Left side, where I do most of my work. Those work benches are around 38" tall. I am tall, so I don't have to bend over to work on them.

this is where i do all of my wiring. My test bench is here also. Hard to see but I have power available (through a power supply), and I have the ability to test out tweetes, midrange, midbass and subwoofers here. Enclosures for each that I can swap in out for anything 15" and smaller.

random tools and where I keep paint and glue:

Fiberglass area:

It needs to be cleaned up and reorganized, and I will do that when time allows.
Ok let's see them---where do you work?

Having never had a garage, I've always used other people's places. I have two good friends that both own cabinet shops, so I do all my woodworking there, and reimburse them for any glue and screws used. One of the friends also has a garage that I've used for install. Other than that, I'm usually in a driveway.

Here's my cave. It's not as neat and orderly as I would like, but I'll clean up after this next stretch of shows.
The Acura in it's home

Work bench, tool boxes, oxy acetelene set, Mig welder, extra seats I still don't have enough.

The collection of Oils, chemicals, and adhesives. You never know when you'll need one or all of these.
 My collection so far this year.

I keep my scrap pieces of wood in this crate to be used for spacers etc. 
Every garage needs one of these. I don't have air in the garage so I need a cold drink now and then.

That's the end of the tour. Hope you enjoyed it.

Ive never had a real garage... We had one but its in such bad shape (an old tennant almost drove through a wall, knocking it off its foundation) so Ive always just used the driveway. What I wouldnt give for a nice garage....

im lucky, live on a cul-de-sac in a little town full of rich assholes, so they have no need to steal my shyt, they can just go buy whatever the fawk they like.
But our garage has 2 doors instead of one large door, so cars dont fit in it so well, and on top of that we got our shooting cart and its trailer in there.
My dad and i shoot sporting clays competitively and well...some of those courses are over a mile long in total, and never flat, and his ankles are messed up from years of hockey and rugby.. oh ya, and when he totalled the fishing boat, shattered his ankle, so ya, long distance walking doesnt work so well for him.
back on topic. The blazer doesnt fit in the garage so i do all my work on it either at work after hours, in the driveway when its not freezing outside, or at my buddies house in his garage.
