kaighn80 Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 right not sure how big it is, if it has sparky points or lights or how i will be getting into or out of, i have assumed that it will be a standard sized one, attached to the house with a door between, so my question is this, i have the lathe, 2 pillar drills (one is going to be converted to a mill or attached to the lathe for the same purpose) mig welder and tig welder, tube bender, bike lift and frame jig, plan me a garage worthy of building top quality bikes (obviously i know i'll have to pay someone to build them to a high quality for me but one step at a time) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vfiend Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 What you want is a tape measure, a pencil and some squared paper, infinate combinations of arranging stuff at your finger tips. Always done whenever moving, saves moving furniture from this side of the room to that and then back again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Von Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Size everything up and draw it out onto a diagram to scale, that how i came to the conclusion i needed 20 x 10 workshop, door location is important, as is the floor, i went for a 6" base with a membrain under it. If you are having some heavy shit in there, i have a deeper floor, maybe 8" or more. Or just go as big as you can afford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorenzo Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Dunno if it'll help, but wickes website has a kitchen planner software thing where you tell it the size of your room and then arrange the cupboards etc in there. All you need to do is find cupboards that are the same size as your drills etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
