I have a dream

[IDCHAPPY]

Well more like a plan, I'm classing it as doing a Bods

.
I have 1.4m of space at the side of my house between the house and the boundary fence..

Had the architect round to discuss the loft conversion and broached the topic with him and he reckons I might need some planning permission but didn't see a problem with getting it granted.

by the time I put up a 1 brick wall and some plasterboard with insulation on it I should have 1200mm to play with.. enough width for a cab

 

[IndyJones]

Nice one, sounds like a plan is forming inside your brain, a plan to house even more candies

good luck with all the planning permission & all that cobblers.

 

[vib_ribbon]

rubbing hands.

think of all those extra egret 2s you can have...

 

[Alpha1]

Sounds good. Pix!!!

 

[neo-geo-mvs]

yes, pics please once done (before and after)

 

[strykr]

Excellent, More cabs, MOREEE!

 

[IDCHAPPY]

Well, It's going right done the side of my house so I reckon It'd bound to be at least 8M long.
Should mean I can get my pin back, maybe another and squeeze in 4-5 more cabs

.

Only downside is it's a bit away unfortunately as the loft conversion and new front/back ground floor windows are up first.

 

[vib_ribbon]

any cabs going in the loft?

 

[IDCHAPPY]

No f'n way

 

[Bods]

LOL

Like this Ian, space for another 10+ uprights, drive was useless so put it to good use

Not that wide, but just enough to have one long row of machines going into the original extension and increasing the total inside wall length to 40ft, extension on side about 6.5ft wide by 23ft

[IDCHAPPY]

That's the one Bods

.
I don't quite have the width(ooer missus) but still should have enough for a row of cabs

 

[Nintendo Arcade]

Nice one Ian, I hope you pull it of.
I am at that point now where I would like more space.

We all need more space...

I am now having to sell off cabs to make room for all the other cabs I want. We can't have it all... and I refuse to pay for storage.

 

[simon_m74]

I need more space too with more VR cabs incoming from USA!

Can I ask the cost of that ?

I`m trying to weigh up doing something similar at my home.

Drive way is useless too. We have a gate at front of house, with the garage set back behind the house.

I am thinking about adding room at the side of the house to use a as a utility room, so I can have the garage as my workspace / cab room.

Agreed!

 

[IDCHAPPY]

So this is what I have to work with:

Not quite as wide as bods but still just wide enough for a row of cabs and/or some pins too.

At the front and back of the house I should be able to make it slightly wider^ to come roughtly in line with the kitchen window

 

[jengineer]

how wide is it from the wall to the fence dude?

You need to be carefull and make sure what ever you build does not overhung onto your neighbours property. Usually its the roof and guttering which will mean you loose another 200-300mm.

I thought regulations specified a minimum build distance from the border if your property. Bods did your neighbour give you any grief with regards to access of that unit in the side if his house?
