Whats the best thing in your garage?
Discussion
Obviously it will be your P & J - but what else have you got in your garage which you think is brilliant.
I've just been down there "tinkering" and I have these as a starting suggestion.
Space Heater - just got this from Machine Mart and it's wonderful this time of year.
Set of ratchet ring spanners. I love these. Nice smooth action and no faffing about relocating the spanner. When its on, its on.
Stubby ball-bearing-ratchet 1/2" socket drive. 100% improvement on the clicky type.
Gas soldering iron. Invaluable when you want to work on electrics in a car.
Various hammers. The ultimate pursuader !!

For me its not whats in it but it is the garage itself. Had the thing erected in the Spring 5.5m x 4m x 3m to apex. Got to set to kitting it out now with :
Hamer lift
Car - Coon(about to order)
Heavy duty workbench
Strip lighting
Well thats the wish list, its going to take a number of years tho to get them

My push bike, but there's so much $h1t in there that I can't even see it any more!
Which leads me onto a question - does everyone else keep all the packaging for all the electrical/electronic goods they buy?
In my garage I have 6 TV boxes (2 widescreen, two normal and two portable); boxes for maybe half a dozen portable audio devices; 4 Dell PC workstations including peripherals and frankly who knows what else. If I threw out the lot I'd be able to park the Tiv in a warm garage rather than under a large carport. But then what happens when we want to move house and all the electronic items need to be packaged?

Good times.

The good old radio is always my best friend 
Good god, how could I have forgotten the radio.
So important in my garage I bought one specifically and even test drove some to make sure they didn't distort at high volume.
Bought a Roberts in the end. Expensive but brilliant.

Appart from the radio, my pit is the best thing in my garage.
So much easier than jacking up the car just to check for a silly water or oil leak
And when you cant be bothered to clear the garage out properly you can just throw all the junk in the pit and park the car on top and forget about all the mess
