Is that a Staten Island Yankees logo I see?

Vonruden

Just a regular Yankees, however I see you are in Tampa...I do have a Tampa Yankees hat.

shoota 

Cool! I have a couple, I played for them too.

edit: Btw your bike collection is amazing. Do you like red bikes?

Vonruden

Wow, that's awesome. I may need you to sign some of my yankees gear.

and yes, i do like red Italian bikes.

Lol send it on down here. I don't mind adding to your Yankee collection.

Or you could just buy this and save us time and money LOL!

The music system is the most important part of my C&V shop, . I'm running a pair of audioengine A5 powered speakers with an iPod as a source. Not bad and very reasonably priced.

The middle of the condo and this is pretty much it.



Currently looking for a house, but inventory is super-tight here. Lots of great shops in this thread for inspiration!

Good stuff, very impressive. I live in the next town over from the Blue Claws, I used to watch Cole Hamels and Ryan Howard play A ball there. Nice to have a Yankee alumni on the site.

Started on my spring cleaning and sorting and re-arranged things so I'd have better room for working on things like vintage Santana tandems...

Kinda crowded! I couldn't move the last two rebuilds out when they were finished!

Too tired today from climbing the stairs from basement to 2nd floor multiple times yesterday doing some plumbing.

So looking at Sixty-Fivers cleanup and with next Friday being Chinese New Years, it's customary to purge and clean house. The shop needed some rearranging so I don't trip over bikes, parts, and other stuff. Also, the Best Buy 1080P 22" TV was enhanced by plugging in some old Altec Lansing computer speakers with a subwoofer. Makes a good evening TV room while doing some wrenching/polishing.









It's too dang cold to tackle the garage.

Are these separate shops or in your homes? I'm jelly o_o

oddjob2

That's my home basement, actually about 1/3 of it.

Very nice. Quite ideal.

This was a good project for a cold winter day (max of 18 today). My shop serves many purposes in addition to bike work. Repair and creation of things related to the property, the tractors/mowers, the motorcycles, wife's horse equipment and structures and on and on. Sometimes I get to wrench on the bicycles.

As you can maybe see, the shop in half below grade so it holds temperature well and gets the mid day sun. Wood stove in the corner and sound system along the rafters. Being a multi-purpose and needing to switch roles quickly, I have no room for a proper bike stand but hanging the bike from the ceiling on an old innertube works just fine. I tie it off to the vice if I don't want it to spin. I also built a portable stand so I can flip a bike over and set in the handlebars and the seat while still protecting the components. Very stable. Wrenching the airheads before I dove back into cycling means I already had a full set of metric tools and I've bought some bike specific tools and home made the others.

There is a 2 inch thick sliding door (packed with insulation) between the shop and the 'machine room': keeps the heat where I need it. The last photo is one corner of the machine room. The Nishiki is doing mule service on the trainer this winter. The bikes share the foor with the mowers, the rototiller the chipper and the big Toro. 22 degF in the machine room this morning. Takes me 15 minutes on the trainer to start shedding layers. No sweat dripping on the towel though. No wind chill either.

This is the busy place in the winter for cycles and motos and busy in the summer for lawn equipment. Wood working anytime. Cheers

9x9 tiles are asbestos containing material. If they are not breaking up there is minimal danger, but if they are chipping or coming apart the fibers are free and there is inhalation danger. If you want to remove them, hire a pro.

Super jealous of your stash of tubes. I aspire to that.

Nice space, too.
