Wait...this is actually for climbing??

How do you climb this? How about the portion where you get upside down?

Its used for bouldering; climbing without ropes usually never above 15 feet.

I saw the first two pics and knew exactly where you were headed with it. Nice work. Get the chalk bucket out and get to crushing. It looks like you have a pretty good area to do some home training with. I'd definitely invest in some crash pads. Even if its just the portable ones made by mad rock or a company like that.

My Garage...

Some of you might remember it from my "Ultimate Garage Build Thread": http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=3404812

All these garages are too clean and organized. Mine is full of grease, dirt, and oil stains. My tools are all there, just completely disorganized. I would do something about it, but as soon as I get everything put away, I need to drag it again in order to use it.

That climbing gym/garage is so awesome. I want to see some tape though! You have no problems set yet

It's really not that hard. It just takes a lot of forearm strength and climbing shoes.

I think it only takes two climbing shoes.

is this in pittsburgh or your old place in cali? i didn't know you had an austin-healey (i think). that's an awesome garage, i love the windows.

Calif. The car on the left and the garage are still there in Calif. Myself and the Audi are here in PIT enjoying the beautiful weather.

I'm in the process of designing the layout, storage, lighting, lift, epoxy and everything else for my garage finish as we speak. Ceilings are a hair under 10' and the overall dimensions are 30x22. Here is the current condition:

The two-bay portion on the right:

The single bay portion on the left:

And a view between the two:

Ahhh... the good ol' Car Lounge. I always enjoy an English lesson from a kid who's my own age.

Also, two shoes wouldn't last very long.

Yeah, sadly my 5 year old uses it more than I do these days.

**22AudiQ** · 01-14-2009 11:02 AM

I can't believe everyone pointed out the climbing wall!

Did anyone see the gorgeous Noble parked right there?!

Awesome garage, awesome car. Well done, sir!

**EightyNineGLH** · 01-14-2009 12:12 PM

the climbing wall is to get the tools you put way high up in the room.

"Hey, can you grab me a breaker bar?"

"3/8 or 1/2."

"1/2."

Sure, hang on. *clapping chalk onto hands..."

**phryxis** · 01-14-2009 12:24 PM

That rocks. I'd love to have some really high ceilings to keep more cars.

**LB_vDub** · 01-14-2009 07:51 PM

There are some nice garages here.

My overcrowded 2-car shack in action:

The garage my dad left for my brother and I when he passed last year...currently we're generating about two trash cans per weekend cleaning it out. Major packrat, and nothing is labeled :

**Rob** · 01-14-2009 11:05 PM

Just to make you guys feel better about your car spending habits, each of those boat engines are Mercury Racing 700SCi's, with a price of about $75k each with drive (props are an extra $5000 EACH), and that orange paint is a $4000 per engine option from Mercury.

Anyways, back to the garages . . .

I'm moving into my g/f's at the moment so it looks like a tactical nuke went off in the garage ..........

however I did find a stack of vintage pr0n in the storage loft above the garage.

This garage is not mine, the picture was stolen from the mk3 forum stance thread, but it contains everything anyone could ever want in a garage.

lol, that pic is of 2.ooohhh's garage, you know the admin on TNeuros. He's putting a lift in it soon.

**hover** · 01-15-2009 01:47 PM

Here's a few more pictures of 2.ooohhh's garage. He'd post them himself, but his password on here has abandoned him.

The E36 belongs to SpasticDwarf, you know the guy with the E28 that everyone hated on for having a rusted hood.
