Extending my Garage/Workshop!

[Bucks]

Just when I thought I couldn't find any more walls to knock down in this house, on Tuesday I decided I needed a bit more space in my small garage/workshop! So yesterday I set too knocking down a partition wall & pinching back just over 3ft of my wife's utility room to give me a bit more room LOL

She can't really complain as about 3 years ago the whole lot was my workshop until I gave up half of it for the utility room, so I'm only pinching a bit of it back.

Why didn't you go the whole hog and reclaim the area as it is obvious that you desperately need it.
She has 3 years use of it she cant complain.

Has she noticed? Tricky when she does - you may get your privileges withdrawn

That's a bit too tidy for a workshop paul mate, you can see the floor!

I Don't think I could have got away with that

I think she's noticed as she was roped into helping with it all

I always seem to take my photos after I've tidied up but will this one do? Think it looks more like a building site / death trap though rather than a workshop!

Onwards and upwards Paul, you know it makes sense.

One side almost finished, still quite a bit to do on the workshop side though, better get cracking as I've got a plasterer coming first thing in the morning!

Ooh yeh can't wait, That extra little bit of space is going to make a big diiferance! Even my wife realises it makes sense (only took about 1/2 a hour to persuade her)

You can never have enough space mate. Could you not have knicked a bit of the kitchen as well

 

[Penpal]

You have done well you may need space through the wall for the Vacuum System.

You should make it one way sliding wall, just move it an inch every week or so,

That last bit would worry me. I'd watch the post if I were you as there might be a solicitors letter advising divorce proceedings have begun. :wink:

 

[Dalboy]

Should have made the new wall on tracks and every so often push it another inch. Not so noticeable as building a new one next time and saving in cost

We can all do with a bigger workshop I know I does

 

[Bucks]

All done & actually getting plastered now

 

[wm460]

actually getting plastered now

I would finish the job first before I got plastered.:drunked:

 

[Penpal]

Reminds me of my attack method always use several nails where one will do also the sturdy infil of timber is great.

[Bill Mooney]

Tons of room now.
