As I have stated a hundred times, I am not much of a mechanic/fab guy, but I need to get after it and start working on my stuff. I mean, at one time I wasn't a good cook, and now I am the best most humble cook I know, so there is hope. We have a 3 car garage that is open all the way across and a shed in the back for lawn mowers and other stuff that would normally go in the garage, and I will have to let my wife have some room for her jeep and pinterest stuff she never finishes. That being said, I am basically working with a 2 car garage. I'm not building Showtime or Warfare in my garage, but I would like to be able to do minor fab work, as well as fix breakage and routine maintenance. I would love to see some pics and layouts of guys who do this in small garages or shops. I am thinking one big metal table for all my metal work, and then other stuff on carts that can be moved around and used outside and stored inside as I need them, This is not a weekend project, it will take time to accumulate the tools and knowledge to use them but I have to start somewhere and I want to have an idea of what I want before I start. Also, if any of you know a good welding tutorial book/videos/class let me know. I have a very basic skill set but it was all learned out of necessity to get a piece of equipment going (I would never weld a critical component) and I only know what to do, not why I am doing it.
