One thing I have always lived by...A garage is a house for the car.
Blasphemy. I think I've parked a car in my garage once or twice. That space is far too valuable to park cars there that can exist perfectly well outside in the driveway!

I agree... The only use I've ever seen for a garage is to have it converted into another room in the house!

I use mine to work on cars, set up band practice space in the warmer portion of the year, and use as a general workshop. If I want more house, I'll build an addition.

Idk. I think I'll most likely have a climate controlled shed built for me to use as a carpentry workshop.

I'm lucky enough to also have a full cabinet shop, in addition to the garage. That was worth every penny to build.

Super jealous. I think within a year we will start looking for a builder for our house. It's an exciting time.

I do all of my own building and remodeling, so that keeps costs down significantly.

I have enough room in my house to where having the car in there is perfectly fine.

You build additions onto your own house? i'm not super handy with that kind of stuff yet

I helped build a two story two room lake house...surprisingly, not that difficult.

Yup, I've built homes, shops, done all aspects of remodeling. I do carpentry, masonry, electric, plumbing, flooring, roofing, etc., as well as building custom cabinetry and furniture.

@Dashrender I helped my dad as a kid do a lot of remodeling, but never building. My mom would get mad because we'd be under the house (I'm 13 at the time) blowtorching the pipes in the winter

Oh, it did... But eventually somebody closed it up. (Me and Pops in one case, and the previous owners of my current house in the other).

That's fantastic. I want to get a CNC machine eventually for some projects I have in mind

I can appreciate that. Personally, I think I'd have to relinquish my man card before I'd be able to allow that space to be used as a parking facility.

Nah I want to be able to cut through aluminum and stuff. Pi projects mostly.
