So after years of searching I have finally found a decent size garage to rent. Its a double garage with space for approx. 3 cars inside. I can't wait to get my stuff moved in, but the question that's been keeping me awake at night, is what to fill it with.
It has power and lighting with plenty of storage shelves. So what would/have you put in your man caves?
I have managed to bag a fridge and sofa so far, but what else?

Big supply compressor..... So many applications

If it can be fixed with a hammer, then it must be an electrical fault

I bet it will fill itself.
A year from now,I bet there will be ads in the for sale section saying something like " space needed ......"
If you weren't so far away, I could help fill it lol!

A decent hifi, a rolling cabinet, work bench with big vice and even more shelving/roof storage. I had a single garage and it was filled within seconds!

A couple of cars may be a good start. I started with a small garage, filled that up as well as filling up the house , moved to a bigger one and filled that up now just moved to a 1000 sq/ft unit and also rented a container unit as well which is getting full.
Moral of the story, no matter how big your unit is you will find curse word to fill it with.

Security first, possibly a camera so you can keep an eye on it from home? Just what I'd do anyway for peace of mind. Beer fridge for beer kettle microwave sofa, maybe sofa bed? stereo maybe keep an eye out for a 2 post or 4 post ramp I'd love my own mancave  |

2 Mk4 Astras and half a ton of rubbish haha. It's become more of a dumping ground for all the stuff from the house. Hopefully longer evenings will spur me on.
