Working on cars in the Winter without a Garage..#$%^*!
I am not complaining, just wishing...Man I dont have a 2 car garage. I have to work on my cars Outside! The worst thing is the darkness, which can be very unpleasant. The sun is coming down at 5:30 PM and the wind kicks up here in New Jersey. so the hour or two I get before dinner time is done with a Work Lamp and in a chill.
That makes you feel conspicuous, everyone else is inside and makes you feel a bit lonely. here you are out in the dark and your wife is 15 feet away in the kitchen and your daughter is watching TV and there is no worse time to be a Certifies Tinkerer.
The next thing is vital repairs assume Stalingard proportions and you got to break out the 1000W Halogen lights. Fingers bruise easily and cuts come easily. Bolts get dropped and wrenches go flying..all the excitement is gone and all your adrenalin is consumes in just staying warm.
Short trips into the garage to get tools turn into a long ones as you warm yourself in front of the kerosene heater or pop your head into the kitchen..
What i would do for a Garage...
