yup fantastic building for sure! I love wood working (and messing around with my targa) and have a few post and beam structures under my belt myself - one without any bolts, nails, screws, etc - just wooden dowels. The other is our cottage at the lake and more traditional with steel splice plates with lag screws. Both very attractive in their own right but I have to say, your attention to detail on the curved braces make my projects look "basic".

Nice setup Garp!

Keeping the beam theme going, mine just went up. They are from the old Pabst Brewery in Milwaukee. Going Vintage Industrial in my garage.

My Porsche Garage - Wisconsin Oasis

Here is my garage, it has been a labor of love to get it where I wanted it for the last 5 years, 2 post lift is going in next week and then it is pretty much complete. Now I want to add on for more storage since my car list has grown a lot in 5 years!

1961 Austin Healey Nasty Boy with 1965 289 HiPo drivetrain (in rebuild)
1972 Porsche 911 w/1986 Turbo drivetrain and widebody conversion
2006 911 4S
2009 Cayenne GTS

Always fun place to hang out and work on the cars with my kids

Amazing. As much as I like the bigger spaces here, I'm very impressed with the small spaces where you guys are getting a lot of work done. Very cool.

That's one heck of a custom wagon. I am guessing you have a Porsche engine in the back? Pls post some info or a link. Looks very cool.

There is nothing like a Mini to make use of that extra 10' of garage space.
