I've read a ton of posts about tractors, and certainly they are a great thing to talk about, but I have another topic that is almost as much fun to think about. What do you want in your ideal shop? I'm thinking about things that most people would see as "must haves" in their shop. Not looking for garagemahals that would require an unlimited budget. Rather, I am wondering about things that the every day tractor enthusiast would be looking for. I'll take a stab at mine. Feel free comment, add, or remove items. 1. Good size. Enough to hold at least 4 tractors in different states of repair. 2. Heat (at least in Iowa; in Texas I might be asking for A/C) 3. Great lighting. 4. Tools, tools, tools. 5. Floor drains. 5. Wash bay? 6. Paint area. 7. Ample electric and air connections. 8. Phone. For pizza delivery of course. 9. You fill in the blanks. I'm looking for things you think you could not do without. Joe
