Still need to clear the Mini :) but getting there.

I'd blow that fridge freezer and tumble dryer out for more workspace....

I know, I could get a decent toolbox there :)

Seriously I've got garage envy....Its a pretty decent size

 

My garage is only 2 foot 6 wider than the mini but with 18 inch shelving to store stuff so I can only push the mini in and out and just about shuffle down the side if I have to 

 

And there is a small bit at the end about 6 wide x 4 long with a bench and tool chest and just about 2 ft 6 width to work in (the width of the door into the house so I know its 2 foot 6)

I'm very lucky but a lot of blood, sacrifice, sweat and tears have gone into getting to this point but it is worth it, very pleased with the outcome. Here are a few shots of the machines I was making room for, still need to assemble a few more and then bolt them down once I've decided where I want to place them.

That's some serious money on machines, is that a mini english wheel on the last picture ?

very nice set up, are you planning on making the panels from scratch ?

That's a Bead Roller, the English Wheel is still in the box behind the bandsaw, hoping to get that up tomorrow and then place everything where it should go.

Thanks, yes that's the plan for future projects, have a TR that needs quite a bit of work, may experiement with some aluminium arches for the Clubman in between.

English wheel up and running, just the shrinker/stretcher to bolt down. Busy unpacking the Mini so it is no longer storing what should be on shelves in the garage:
