PROJECT CX: Setting Up The Gararge

 

As stated before, I recently moved into a newer, less thefty, garage. Space in this city is scarce, so I always end up having to rent the space I need a ways away from home. Roughly 5 miles this time. In Chicago time, this takes about 30-40min to get to. 

I've been spending my weekends setting everything up and trying to organize a more legit work space. I recently put up a ton of lighting and, just, wow. Having a very well lit garage makes your quality of garage-life sky rocket. No more incandescent bulbs and shop lights.

It made me happy, so I shot a few pictures of the bike through the mounds of boxes and parts I'm still organizing.



I've still yet to give the bike a full and proper shoot / write up. I'm planning on doing all this as soon as the garage is situated. Having a decent camera at my disposal has been great.

  1. That place is lust worthy. A nice fat vintage shop bench with a clean work surface would be money. It might be hard to move but it'd make your life way easier. Also this. http://www.harborfreight.com/1000-lb-capacity-motorcycle-lift-91764.html

  2. Ian, the work bench is already in the ....works. I'm beefing up a solid wood desk I've had for years, so it'll be able to take hammer blows and the such.

    I'd love to get a lift too. That's down the line a bit. I may just make my own out of wood for the time being.
