I've wanted a shop for over 10 years, since I moved to Idaho. I've got enough room to build a 24x40 or maybe 30x40 shop in my back yard, but the idea of dominating the whole yard with it wasn't all that appealing to me, and definitely not to the wife.

I decided to shop for a Garage Town storage condo unit. Closed on a 24x48 unit 2 weeks ago, and I'm stoked. It's 10 minutes from my house, so everything that goes into it will be deliberate. It won't be a catch-all for extra house crap.

First change was having a polyaspartic epoxy floor installed. Only took 2 days to install, could walk on it the same night and drive on it the next day.

It's 23 ft tall at the back, 19 ft at the front. I'm going to build a 20x16 loft across the back, the bottom will be at 11 or 12 ft high, so I'll be able to install a vehicle lift under it if I want.
