New Shop is Getting Somewhere

Man, now that's what I call a shop "and" a collection!

You really know how to make a guy feel bad.....

Got the lift yesterday and snapped a few pics of where the shop is at now.

First let me say the Greg Smith Equipment was a pleasure to deal with. Greg Smith himself came out and answered all of our questions and took care of us personally. Very honest and super funny guy.

While we were there we picked up a few extras (84" 2 ton tripod stands, hose reals, LED drop light, wheel dollies and an 18 gal upright oil drain).

We went with the Atlas OH9000 2 post lift as it seemed to have all of the features that we were looking for.

Loading it was the easy part, the head scratching came when we were trying to decided how 2 guys were going to unload a 1400lb hunk of metal.

After a lot of thinking and breaking out the cherry picker we had it on the ground. Note we made use of 2 of the wheel dollies.

Now for a few pics of the shop. Still waiting for 10 more of the 8' lights. In all there will be 21 8' lights with 6500k bulbs (very bright).

Bench racing area

Toy area

As you can see there is still a lot more work to do and more equipment to move in including my tool box (big heavy and no fun to move).

The lift will not be installed until we finish the ceiling where the lift is going to be so don't expect to see it up any time soon.

Ok I thought about it and its ok with me BUT you will have to ask Dana first since you will be sharing a bay.

Tad you can come and play anytime you wish. Just bring a helmet if you plan on playing on any of the toys (the guy next door a dirt track that's about a mile long that we can ride on anytime).
