Here are some before pics of my messy garage.  I have been working on it tonight to get ready for a garages sale tommorrow.  I have seen some sties in the pics but I think mine takes the cake.


The large open clean looking spot is usually taken up by my toys, and a wheelbarrow.  I loaded them in the truck to get them out of the way while I work.


This side needs the most love.  I have some big shelves all cut and ready to be put up.


Here is the worst part.  This is where everything that does not have a place gets tossed.


This side is mostly finished.  The boards on the floor are my new shelves that will look like the ones I built last fall (shown).  I will also be making a closed cabinet for storing my books and other tools.  I will also be making a closet to hold all my riding gear and work clothes with a special shelf for the helmuts and shoe racks that can hold boots.

If you noticed that beautiful piece of HDF board on the the stack that is going to be my new work bench with a cubby hole for my shop vac.  Hopefully when its all done there will be plenty of room for my wife to park her Jeep along side the bikes.  I will post some after pics when it's all done.

That shed looks neat and organized.  It just needs to be picked up.  I'm talking about down right dirty.

Its not that bad. I wish I had picks of my garage before and after. At one time I had my dirt bike completely disassebled while waiting for parts. Plus I had a buddies street bike all taken apart. Tools were everywhere. Oil was everywhere. Luckily I always put cardboard down to keep it a little less messy. After dealing with that for a few weeks I broke down and cleaned it up and got my dirtbike bad together. It feels so nice to have a clean garage again to work with.

Yeahhh... at my parents house, its a mess! We live in an older ranch-styled home and have a huge garage - my dad & 3 brothers make it a mess! But at my place, the garage is super clean - I even clean up my roommate's side if its dirty. lol

My wife is borderline OCD.  (Her Dad is really bad) My garage has been driving her nuts all winter.  Now the weather has been nice I've been trying to get it done.  I have made progress and will take some pics of that progress tommorrow.  Unfortunately Other tasks and foul weather have slowed construction down a tad.
