Don’t give up.

I build my car also without a garage, but outside under a party tent in the frontyard at my parents house. And that for almost five years. There are more builders without a decent garage. So it can be done! Don’t scrap your build, you might regret it later.
Maybe you could make a compromise and take a look at the options at the already existing 3 wall building.

Sorry for not getting back to everyone - it's been manic since I returned to work after the holidays.

Garage - it's just that - ok 2.5 walls - no roof and falling down - its been there since just before ww2 and burned down around 30 years ago leaving 2.5 walls.

It might have something to do with the age of property (built 1840 +/- 10yrs)

existing one is 34 x 10 and floor is knackered (tree grown through at some time).

new was to be 26 x 15 (TBH I've got room to make it 34 x 20 and still have more than half the garden left.)

Firefox.. As a network manager for a living I'd look for the obvious solutions before moaning - I'm moaning as all obvious were exhausted.

Other options - I have the offer of a 50x 30 workshop (with pit) 5 mins from work - but that is one and a half hours from home..

Using a lock-up is an option - and no problem on the power front as I was going to use a genny in mine - a concession to the dragon to cut electricity bills - besides how many battery opp welders are there?.

As for building with out a garage - yeah I know someone who built a triple eng drag bike in his front room - the divorce papers landed the day after he started. (hmm maybe thats a bonus I dunno)
