Re: pics of your shop
My van won't fit in here, but this is where I conduct experiments and general mayhem:
Before I moved my junk in (500sq.ft.):
And after:
I have a custom HIGH VOLTAGE alarm system that turns would be thieves into smoldering carbon deposits that can easily be swept up and sprinkled in my garden! So don't get any ideas!

Re: pics of your shop
Actually, I'd never had a garage before this pic was taken. She spent 2 years looking in the paper every day for a secluded place with a giant garage for me (alone) to move into. A place with a balcony, backyard, garage and laundry facility located someplace I could build crazy shit and not be spied on by the neighbors. And even better, she's only my girlfriend and loves the fact that I'm a total kook! I couldn't possibly find a better girl!

Re: pics of your shop
Probably 5 visible in these pix including the palmscope, but I have 6. Only 2 of them are really useful for repairing electronics, the others are for tuning my Tesla coils. I unplug all my good stuff before I throw any lightning around the garage.
