I shifted a few things overhead in my garage, and when I change my
strip lights to pendants I will redo and partially board the full width of
the garage for stuff like the awning and ploles (or perhaps just the poles)
I cleared out the loft last year and there is still stuff stacked in the garage!
Most of it is tools and special tools or jigs for particular machines, I am a
bit of a magpie and I cannot bear to throw away the metal, (all stainless)
When I have enough space I can make my fold down benches for my
bandsaw and pillar drill etc. which currently lie buried.

Unfortunately our garage has a flat roof and so no roof storage, which I know from past experience is a great asset. It grieved me greatly two houses back when we moved from a double garage with roof storage house, to a single garage with no roof storage. I left an awful lot of good timber and bits and pieces behind up in the roof.

I've often wondered how much it would cost to put a pitched roof on the garage, especially when I realised the Troll wouldn't fit inside for want of another row of bricks. However as well as the roof it would involve strengthening the three non-house walls to take the extra weight, installing a bigger door and frame and making a further part of our short but wide garden even darker

I drove past a garage that had been raised and roofed with UPVC,
rather like a conservatory, someone thinking outside the box!

So where's the picture Rodders?
