I just did some rearranging in the shop last night and thought to myself, I wonder what everyone else has for shop set ups on the WI BIMMERS site thingy. So here is a few of my shop to get it started,then lets see yours!!!!!

Awesome space! Whats the square footage? How many guys are you splitting it with and do you mind sharing your rent? Looking to get into a shop over the summer myself.

That green e30 had me drooling a couple of months ago when it was parked on Brady St. outside of World of Beer.

Nice. I have the problem "never enough space". My garage isn't small by any stretch but the damn thing is packed and I keep wanting more big tools.

Brian.

Chris, this is where they work, when they're not at their 9-5 job. "full time" if you get my drift... Dunno about renting out shop space, they use almost all of it!

2800sqft split between two guys. We have two offices/rooms that are flexible for the nights we "cant make it home." We also have a causal living space upstairs for gaming and eating. Rent is really cheap( I rather not tell ) and I have yet to find a space of its size, this new, for the price.

Thanks!! Should have said Hai! I live in Madison but am in Milwaukee on a weekend basis, scouting for a good time.

Well lets see some shots of your space even if its floor to ceiling with stuff! But I hear you on that one. I have another car not even in the shop yet because there simply isn't enough space. Maybe this summer when the boats out of the way.

Brian has been over a few times already, maybe once it gets warmer my roommate an I can host an WI BIMMER event for everyone to come visit. We have a large parking lot and it would be nice to put a lot of faces with you folks.

Brian.

A few times. Chyeah, not often enough..

I'll snag a few photo's this weekend of my shop+ paint booth. E28 and E46 M3 up in thur! I can't find any of my S13 coupe in the shop though. I think my flickr account got deleted. Oh well.

Brian.

I'll vouch for BMWben and Rampelsauce in this post. Since I don't have a garage of my own...

Starting off at my parents. Took this photo when we had all 4 bimmers at the house. Ben's 633csi in the garage, my old '88 Eta parted out in the driveway, my old 318is when it was still mine on the left and my dad's '86 528e (now my car) on the right.

Some say I have the ultimate shop... a Dealership! Its been awesome having access to special tools and detailing supplies whenever I need them

Now I got my parts collection out in toothpaste land along with both E28's so this will be my new garage until the shop comes along. This is after Zach and I pulled the super eta out of my old car.

Chris, is that an E21 in the garage of the 1st picture?

Nope its a E24 1981 633csi, a early model so its based off the E12 5 series.

He says he'll do it when you come pick it up! All it takes is 1 bolt and its out

Then zach should grab life by the balls, get some motivation, an do it himself no?

sadly, my bike gets treated 10x better than the car

you'll see that this "garage" looks like a basement, because it is, and the stairs are especially exciting.

car just sits in the attached garage. nothing special.
