Sweet, mine is proper. TIL my basement is also a proper garage.
My grandpa was a high school shop teacher after serving in WWII, so I have an absolute gob of early power tools and, more importantly, a ton of manual tools. I love using the manual tools. They take for-fucking-ever, but they don’t intimidate me the way power tools do.
Did you come across a bunch of power tools where the cord screws in to the base, so it’s real easy to replace?
Like the tools come full apart, that’s insane! They also probably had guides with them to fix them!
Like I can probably still use those shock factories! I certainly do not -want- to use them, even though they almost certainly still work (other than maybe corrosion), but the documentation to repair them probably still exists and that’s amazing!!
I don’t trust people with garages that clean
Americans haven’t had garages for 30 years. They have on-site storage units. Some of which can fit a car.
They’ve got the showroom floor; it’s just for show.
The tools always look completely unused, like the antique kitchen tools my mom hung on the wall for decoration.
A proper garage should have exposed framing and a pile of spiders next to a pile of grandpas drill bits

My grandpa also did various mechanical jobs after WWII. It was wild going through stuff when we moved them in with us

Talking about the Lamborghini or Corvette guy?
Yes
