England 2003 Range Rover Vogue Td6 Zambezi Silver

My garage currently looks like Micks too. I keep making a path through but it seems the ingress of bikes and other family clutter and caravan items, as in stuff for winter / stuff for summer is hogging it. Its days are numberd though even as a garage as its going to become a kitchen when we get around to it and I'm building a workshop in the garden, though I won't be able to get a car in due to its position Sad I will however have the mother of all carports once all done Thumbs Up 2010 Disco XS TDV6, 2009 Freelander 2 GS

A little more than just cut the bottom cord Simon.

Lots of thought went into the truss cutting, plenty sleepless nights and once I had decided to go ahead with it it was a nerve wracking time up there with a saw in my hand.

There was a load of 8x2 and 6x2 bolted onto the original structure before any cutting was done

Mick,
I put a couple of batons between the rafters so the double ladders can be stored out above the ceiling height. If you put them above the double doors, you need to take them down when the doors are closed but thats a dawdle... Wink

This Is why I am going to hate moving nearer Edinburgh. We currently live in the country and have 4 cars In a garage about the size of yours. When we move (Work reasons) We will have 1 garage. That's one of many downsides to living In a townhouse. Now I have to borrow 3 garages from friends and family.

Envious... very.
