I moved into the garage 20 years ago. Since then I have added hvac, stereo, two computers, storage out the a$$, digital cable TV, two fridges, one freezer, two desks, two work benches, HO car and train track, ( behind the Flags on a fold down 8X6 table, a mount of a 79 lbs King Salmon, Bowflex 2 Extreme, ashtray for my cigars, pulled the 20 foot Javelin boat out to be able o park the Silverbullet00 inside, University of Oklahoma Cheerleaders- Female type- in rent house across the street,,,,,Why the Hell would I want to go "inside the house"! except to get rid of the occasional brew!!

P.S. I have done this type of collage before, I will post pics with better lighting when I am finished. Several coats of polyurethane and it will be fodder for "Better Homes & Garages"

Well, that's one way to decorate and use up the magazines at the same time.

If your wife and daughter don't kill you some jealous neighbor guy may pick you off out of jealously. You are having more fun than any human should be allowed. Where's the gun cabinet and safari trophies?

Dude...my wife wouldn't dare ask me what I was going to do with my magazines. I am all over her for all of the junk that she is constantly bringing into the house. I now tell her that anytime she brings something in, something else has to go out.

On the other hand I was getting tired of all of my mags. What I decided to do was scan all of the articles that interest me into my computer and then throw them away. This takes up no space at all.
