Where's yours getting built?
Just thought it'd be good to see what sort of places people use for their builds. Post your pics below.
This is mine 30ft x 8ft storage container with a generator for power. (spot the nice new shiney trolley jack from santa) Happy New Year everyone.

David, I think you have done a splendid job on your build working with so little space
Mine is being built in my workshop/garage Rumoured to be abou 16ft X 21ft but allowing for all of my junk & untidy habits, it feels like working in a 12 X 8 garden shed Gotta get that roof and extension done this coming year !!?? Then get some decent heating installed .... This cold weather has kept me out of there for ages

Watch out for them jacks, They can be a bit unstable at the front. And My one keeps working all the bolts loose. But mine was one of the first sold by Machine Mart a few years ago.

The workshop is 40x20ft but due to having a stud wall in the way for the machine shop that goes down to 30x20ft. Storage racks at the other end and the mill in the corner takes that down to 20x20ft. The wrapping and packing bench in the middle is 8x4ft sheet on tressels with the bandsaw on the end of it, so with all that in mind I only have the build table as work space. So my build area is 10x15ft not much more than a standard garage. I'm building the whole car on the bench then removing the heavy parts, putting the wheels on then refitting the engine and box when it's been cleaned and rebuilt. Just because you have a large area does'nt mean you have a large space to work in

Mine is in the corner of my workshop approx 40 X 50 feet but I have an 8 Tonne four poster lift in there plus my camper van (7 metre Iveco turbo daily) and now a ten foot box trailer too. I'll see if I can find a decent photo.

Pretty much a standard size garage. I've got the space to extend it to the rear by about 12'. Seriously thinking of doing that this year but I hate doing footings.
