I know my dad has, considering the company is based out of my home town. We were looking into lifts for when we built a shop, but the property is now up for sale due to changes in plans. I'll have to get some pics together of my workspaces... Nothing special. I'll be out of a workspace for at least the next 6 months while I shop for a house. If I don't get a decent sized garage, I'll definately be looking for a house with enough land to build something similar to what you have.

I got a one-and-maybe-a-quarter-at-most-car garage that is just long enoughso that when my lumina is backed in, the rear bumper is an inch or less from the wall, there is about a foot between the front bumper and the door. So I work with the door open, nice with these low temps.

Mine is about 680 square feet, 29 by 24 roughly, over head storage, has peg board all around.

I was left with alot of the junk the previous owner left here, so I pitched most of it so far.

Working on getting it fully insulated.

I would buy a big garage and put a tent in frount of it if I could.
When I go back to the states that will be one of the key things I look for.
