Default DIY'ers: Post pics of your garage / modding work space please

What the title says...

Wherever it is that you DIY'ers install your mods, whether it be on jack stands or ramps in the driveway or full blown hydraulic lifts in your rediculously huge garage, or even if you mod at a friend's professional garage, please post pics of where you work on your cars.

If you don't have a camera, feel free to describe your work space. I am very curious because as of right now, I don't have a garage. I have a nice clean shaded and pigeon free overhang, but there's not much space to work.

I'd just like to give myself props for the worst thread ever.

Go me!

I guess no one thinks about taking pictures of their garage. And no one cares... but me

I'd be interested in seeing some of this also, I have the chance to build my garage from scratch when the new house gets built next year so some ideas would be helpful. While this is not the worst thread ever, it does have some of the worst responses, but maybe that will change

I don't think it's a bad thread at all. It would give us some idea as to what people keep there, use, etc. Too bad I get all the work done for me.

Since you're in LA, where do you get your work done / installed?

All my DIY stuff is going to be done in the shop area of an out-of-business textile factory (building now just used for storage). App 20'x30' room, 10' roll-up door, Oxy & Plasma cutters, jackstands, usual stuff. I have often wondered about jerry-rigging the old Hyster lift to act as a chassis lift, but then the idea of working under a precariously balanced 3200lb car doesn't seem pleasant, but is not nearly so unpleasant as thinking about my Z being precariously balanced anywhere...and it seems a little redneck/ghettoish. Idk, not that I'm adding anything important here, but I figure, why not mention it? right?
