Garage Renovation
Posted by BigKev On 2008/8/7 22:18:48
Well I just thought I would share what I have been tinkering with the last few weeks. I basically ripped out a very old tool bench, built a new one that is ladder framed with 2x4s (16" on center), with a 3/4" sanded plywood top, and lag bolted to the wall. It's 16' long and gives me ton of counter space. Also gives me lots of under bench space for the compressor, tool box, and the office file cabinents that are filled with the small parts of the Packard.
I put the Media Blaster on the other side of garage with the drill press, and part washer. Only thing left to do is run black pipe all over the garage for the compressor airlines. But that will come later. I am choosing to run black pipe as it helps to condense the water from the air, so the water trap works better. I plan on shooting the primer on the Packard myself as well as the finish coats on the door jams, engine compartment, and inside the trunk. So I want the air as dry as I can get it. Plus dry lines really help when using the Media Blaster.
Anyway enough of my babble...pictures.
