That is a very nice garage you have made. I can't find the right English words, but it looks very well finished. I mean no small cracks, paintwork looks crisp etc. Looks great!

Love it
I have three daughters. They have all been instructed to produce only boys so I can make cool stuff like this.
My niece has just had a baby boy so I can get started soon.____________________________

Love it!!
Especially the LPG tank.
Too many projects, so little time, even less money!

Outstanding.
Well done.
A great play area for a couple of little boys to enjoy. Wide ramps and large doors for easy access... good idea.

Excellent work, nicely finished, great paintwork and one very happy child I am sure. Great pictures. Well done.
