EDIT: I guess I might also be interested in reading the 300 word essays of the winners.

Once Jack entered there wasn't much sense putting the effort into cleaning up.
His garage is an inspiration. Well deserved.

Nice job! Jack is a regular on garagejournal.com as well and has been an inspiration to many working in cramped spaces.

Yeah, pretty sure I called that in the original thread for this on day one. Not sure why the rest of us even bothered, lol.

I think I proposed that there be four categories:

Winner, Small Category Jack Olsen's Garage

Winner, Small Category Not Jack Olsen's Garage

Winner, Large Category

Winner, Commercial Category

You'll need to log in to post.
