DESCRIPTION:
How to Design, Build and Equip Your Automotive Workshop on a Budget provides the necessary information as the hobbyist considers various tools, designs, installations, and products available for their automotive workspace. This book does not address garden rake storage, but describes in detail how to set up an organized and functional garage or workshop for professional-level work at the lowest possible price. There are step-by-step instructions for the most essential and practical procedures, including basic electrical wiring sufficient to connect up bank of lights, a compressor, a welder circuit as well as a procedure for routing power from your household electrical service panel and plumbing basic shop fixtures. Many of the ideas presented for workbenches and storage can be implemented at low cost, or even for free if you're extra resourceful.

Doc said Best for setting up your home garage.. SA books are usually good value. This is no exception. Covers topics from layouts, heat, electical, from simple cabinets to a home lifts. Pictures were great. Read in twice the first night I received and will continue to referrence. Very comprehensive.. More for those thinking about going into business John Eaton I took a chance with this book having never tried out any other books by the publisher "S-A Design". While it wasn't quite what I expected (I thought it was more of a home shop type book - it's actually for someone who wants to open a retail servicing business on a budget), it's still filled with fantastic ideas and good information. I particularly liked all the 3-ph. Got a few ideas from the book Rick robbins Making plans to build a 40X60' brick personal garage with relaxation area for approximately $100K. Got a few ideas for my project. Don't plan to use second hand furnishings or equipment as suggested. Also the website mentioned was not a help.
