Dateranoth Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 So, we bought a new car for my wife this past week. Of course, it wouldn't fit in the garage. Since she was eyeballing the Supra's spot I had to take quick action. I guess you would call it a subtraction instead of an addition. Took 12in off my garage step. The white mark on the ground is where it use to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeeKnuckle Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Have you taken groceries up those stairs yet? It's reminding me of the side patio stairs I once had. I'd have to walk sideways up them when I had bags in my hands. lol "Quick action" got a genuine laugh from me. hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dateranoth Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 lol. I carried my tools up them. They aren't as narrow as they look. I think the previous owner built them to wheelchair size maybe? I took a foot off of them and they are still at minimum code length of 3 feet not counting the hand rail. It's mainly the bottom post location. It causes the main entry to be about 6 inches narrower than the rest. I should have changed it, but it was enough work taking it all down and putting it back the same way. I had to modify the top, and I did not have the exact right material. You can't see it but, the top post is a little short. I had the 4x4 on hand so that's what it gets. It's just a garage anyway. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dungeoncrawler69 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 i see you store your chemicals just like i do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dateranoth Posted September 2, 2017 Author Share Posted September 2, 2017 Haha. Yep. I need to get a tool box. The shelf is half chemicals and half tools. I should this weekend since harbor freight has a 25% off coupon, but I've spent too much money lately. It'll have to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dateranoth Posted October 8, 2017 Author Share Posted October 8, 2017 lol. I just need a bigger garage. It works out here because I have the basement for extra storage, but a bigger work space in the garage would have been nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spawn622 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 We sold our house at the beginning of September and moved in to a rental temporarily. Pretty nice place out in the country. Bigger and less money is always a plus. First time having a garage at all. Pretty awesome. Going to finish paying off a small loan and the rest of the wife’s college bills and then be COMPLETELY debt free. Estimate right now is November of 2018. Pretty stoked for that. It’s been a long 4 year’s of getting rid of over $175k of debt. Then we’ll get college funds set aside for the kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dateranoth Posted November 23, 2017 Author Share Posted November 23, 2017 Man. I was close to being out of debt. Then we decided to buy this new place. Haha. And now a new car. Oh well, another decade or two maybe. Glad to hear all is going well for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
