This at one time was a 1 car garage, 12 feet wide by 27 feet long, with washer and dryer along the side in a sort of alcove. Since it was seldom used as a "garage", now converted it to fit my wants! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The renovations included, not in order! 1. Remove outside wall sheet rock, insulate and replace w/new
Sheetrock.
2. Remove garage door, replace w/2 windows and a exterior door. 3. Remove and replace the house A/C unit, replace with larger, due to increased square footage. 4. Add more A/C ducts for heating/cooling of the new area. 5. Add more electrical outlets and lighting circuits. 6. Add one dedicated circuit for computer. 7. Install ceiling fan, with remote control. 8. Paint walls, ceiling, and all trim. 9. Install wall to wall carpet. 10. Design and build my own custom computer desk. ![]() |
"Design and build my own custom
computer desk."
The desk its self is one full
sheet of 3/4 inch Birch plywood, cut in a somewhat modified "Vee".
The plywood was sealed with 7 coats of clear polyurethane, sanded between each coat. Cut marks were then made or marked on the back side and cut out. The top part of the desk assembled, edging was placed on off the esposed edges of the plywood. Supported by two file cabinets on either end. With a old junk computer desk to support the middle, I found on the side of a road. ![]() |
Okay, I do
share "my" area with Shirley at times. When she exercises, trying to walk
again.
