Default Your dream shop!

Just thought this might be a fun/cool thread.

Just give a good description of what your dream shop would be! Make this a good one!

I thinkin a 4 bay shop for the daily drivers, and room to work on them connected to a shop big enough to store the trailers and have enough room to turn around a truck with at least about a 36 foot trailer. Also equipped with a 2 clean rooms and living quarters. The whole shop being heated and air conditioned. Air compressor housed outside in its own building, along with a stationary generator mounted in its own building feeding the house and shop.

Building mine..... Have the shell done, 40x60x16 pole building. 14x7 and 16x16 door on one gable end and 10x12 door on one side. Don't have the doors yet as the bids I got were around 6 grand... Going to pour the floor later this year with hydronic heat..... Will have it's own 400 amp service (single phase) service, cuz you can never have too much power..... A lift eventually, plumed everywhere.. An upstairs in one half for either an apartment or maybe just storage. That is the reason for the 7' door. And then fill it with toys. :-) wish it was done, but it's being finished in stages as I can find the cash.....

Well since we're dreaming here, I'd like something
fully equipped, and about the size of an airport hanger.

Be a while before I managed to run out of room.

It'd involve beautiful psychic women that would do exactly what I'd want to do to my truck before I knew what I wanted to do.

More than a couple .... I was thinking rotating shifts so you never had to look at the same ones.



And in bikinis. With safety boots.

Because you can't ever be too safe.
