clueless 2,898 #1 Posted September 3, 2016 The other day the wife and I were talking about how many of these I have bought in the last couple of years. She said "The first step in any addiction is admitting you have a problem." So I got out to the shop, sit down, and spend some time soul searching. I realized I do have a problem... ... I need a bigger shop! 17 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JoeM 7,695 #7 Posted September 3, 2016 Sounds the same as my problem. I wish I could have built a bigger one too! They re zoned my property from Agricultural to Residential a couple years back. I can only build a 12x20 now. Anything bigger needs a hearing and a variance. Got shot down on the 24x40. No dice! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elcamino/wheelhorse 9,066 #9 Posted September 3, 2016 You don't have a problem , just a hobby. I think you need a large addition say 20x 40 ft, that would solve your space problem for a year or so. I don't see much space for the coffee pot , TV or computer in your current shop. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Johndeereelfman 309 #11 Posted September 3, 2016 Wow, I sure wish I had your problem! At least you can walk into your garage. I know all about the Deere problem. One gets in, and it all goes down hill from there. 2 hours ago, stevasaurus said: Hey Chris...Need to paint that gang box.

TIGman 2,006 #21 Posted September 4, 2016 (edited) Yeppers, the only problem I see is you might need a BIGGER barn for the Horse collection. I seem to have the same problem. Edited September 4, 2016 by TIGman 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
