Thanks for using my before picture. I can assure you that my garage looks much better at the moment. No pics because I'm at the pool right now.

That's how I get my stuff done.  I have about 45 minutes to an hour between getting home from work and dinner. I do whatever can be done in that time, my oh so supportive wife even gives me a 5 minute warning before dinner.

I built the last motor for my Datsun 30 minutes at a time.

I'm excited to have my project nearby(hopefully soon) so I can begin doing the 30minutes chomp. I've got the time in my schedule for 30 minutes per day, but currently it's the 3hr round trip to the storage unit that kills it.

This is the after picture.  I now have much more room to work on projects.

I decided to take Thursday through Tuesday to attempt a full cleaning and organizing of my garage after 7 years living here.

what I have learned about a bigger garage is that you can create an even bigger mess that overwhelms you to the point that you don't even attempt to clean up.

Well I burned my 6 days straight of cleaning and I'll have to go back to the 30min at a time approach.

You'll need to log in to post.
